Joe 'Carty


PRS has a limited edition McCarty 594 singlecut to show. It's an endorsed, Joe Walsh version. Only 200 of these will be offered, all signed by the man himself. The critical differences here are namely the custom voiced 58/15 LT + humbuckers & a slightly thicker body.

The way I see it, Mr. Walsh is very happy with how the guitar sounds; it's a celebration of the single coil clarity in a humbucking format. Maybe this will work for some of us too, hearing lots of twang in a non-single coil guitar but I wouldn't spend money on humbuckers to sound like a single coil. Usually I'm not a fan of such tones but the crunchy voicings here are simply great.
