McCarty was developed to combine the traditional characteristics of vintage electric guitars with the construction standards and innovations associated with Paul Reed Smith. Its design includes a slightly thicker mahogany back than the traditional PRS Custom model, helping distinguish the McCarty's physical and tonal character.
