Straight out of Stevensville, Maryland
In 2013, PRS launched the S2 series. Designed as workhorse guitars for the modern musician, this line of instruments offered American-made PRS quality with a non-nonsense feature set. The PRS S2 McCarty 594 elevates the S2 series far beyond its already impressive beginnings, sporting the same USA-made humbucking pickups found on PRS Core line and Private Stock instruments. The result is a genuinely uncompromising sonic masterpiece that proudly brandishes the traditional pared-back visuals of the S2 series but harbors the same expressive tone as PRS’s most premium offerings.
Dual-coil power, single-coil clarity
Rooted in the past with an eye toward the future, PRS 58/15 LT humbuckers perfectly capture the dual-coil magic of a late ’50s humbucker, then enhance it with all the benefits of modern construction. The result? A pickup with focused mids, balanced lows and highs, and unmatched clarity. In a nutshell, it’s a sound that’s equal parts classic humbucker warmth and stunning single-coil snap. What’s more, this iteration of the 58/15 sports an LT (low turn) wind for a slightly more vintage feel than the standard version, lowering the output to provide an open and resonant tone.
