Seal of approval
“I don’t like new guitars, but out of the box this is absolutely perfect. All the stuff on a new guitar that I always have to try to fix, is already done here. Out of the box. Thank you, Paul.” – Joe Walsh
Authentic look
Single cutaway. Humbuckers. Luscious checked, sunburst finish- you're already thinking one thing. With over 50 years of guitar experience under his belt, Joe Walsh's McCarty 594 signature ports over all the beloved elements of his classic guitars, and then improves the overall design to offer something truly special. The mahogany body was chosen for its rich tonal properties and singing sustain, but the carved figured maple top in McCarty Sunburst finish lends a stunning aesthetic to match its tones. Finished off with signatures from both Joe himself on the control plate, as well as the regular headstock logo being replaced with a hand-drawn signature from Paul Reed Smith, this is a guitar that has literally been 'signed off' by two legends of the guitar world; testament to its quality.
Flawless playability
With their bound, 22-fret, 24.594” scale length 'Pattern Vintage' necks and slightly thicker backs for enhanced tone and sustain, all McCarty 594 Singlecuts have been meticulously designed to play as nicely as they sound. This Joe Walsh Limited Edition takes these specifications one step further, sporting a Brazilian rosewood fretboard with stainless steel frets to deliver superb playability and characterful, expressive tones. Matched by the two-piece bridge design which enhances resonance and sustain and it becomes clear every hardware appointment was specifically chosen to improve playability or tone. This ensures this guitar offers an unparalleled playing experience.
Impeccable tone
Whether you are wanting full, thick humbucking tones or the distinctive twang of single-coils, Walsh's McCarty 594 can seamlessly switch between both sonic territories thanks to push/pull coil taps on the tone controls. This versatility makes this guitar a tonal leviathan, capable of channelling just about any guitar tone you're wanting to coax out of it. The intrinsic properties of the pickups being articulate means you can Take It to the Limit without sacrificing an iota of clarity.
