NGD: the "my wife is a saint" edition

[Budda]

No, she did not buy this for me. But she did let me get it before selling the Huber (for sale!).








2019 PRS McCarty SC594 LTD semi-hollow in McCarty Sunburst - but randomly with a brazilian rosewood fretboard. This was a dealer order from our version of GC at a store out west. The braz board wasnt requested, it just showed up. I think nearly every braz PRS I've seen listed in Canada has had "for USA only" on the back of the headstock . It has the documentation in the case.

Overall it's what you expect from the 594 line, basically a les paul killer. I guestimate it to be around 7.5lbs, need a scale eventually . It came with dead 11-something EB's and high action. I put.10-52s on but will probably go 10-46 like my MC594. Haven't done a truss tweak in a while and now it plays much better. I made an a/b post between my 594's which I'll get posted later.

I damn well better be done for a while, 2021 has been a guitar safari and a half!

Sweetness! Having a great wife is a major score, too!

[Chris]

[bigdave]

Wow, thats a great axe, and a very understanding lady. Double score.

[playstopause]

Great score! Congrats Justin!

[Randy]

🧐 approved.

[jim777]

Wow, nice! I came thisclose to buying something very similar yesterday myself Play the frets off her!

[Randy]

Lucky you, I'm still in "oh that thing? I've had that for years" and "oh I just traded another one with somebody for this" mode.

[BigM555]

Nice! Congrats man!

[Markus]

Nice! That's a really cool looking guitar.

[Shawn]

Lovely wife you have there! She's a beauty. Congrats!

[Jeff]

Well that’s killer. I’ve never even seen one of those IRL. Looks amazing!

Dude! Why? That thing is lush! I realise this is something entirely different, but all the same...

Since it's a flat top, the edge digs into my arm enough for me to be a bit uncomfortable. And when your most expensive guitar is a bit uncomfortable, you sell it . Incredible build quality and tone though. Makes me sad that the Dolphin II models are serious $$ this side of the Atlantic.

What's your stable like these days? Judging by your NGD's, you seemed to have really stepped up on the corksniffery! (Not a criticism, btw)

I do that, too sometimes it just isn't worth the argument.

Gorgeous guitar!

Nice!

Yeah. This year was nutty and my friend wisely said stop looking for deals and I wont find them .

At some point im gonna look for an am pro strat with rosewood board.

I totally understand. I can't play metal on anything without a forearm cut. I have a dirt-cheap Pacifica 102S that gets loads of playtime because hardtail/string through body is also awesome, but anything chuggy on that gets uncomfortable really fast.

My flat top tele bothered me at first but now I dont notice it really. The gloss finish bugs me more than the lack of contours.


That is a nice looking guitar grats man

My tele has rounded edges. It also doesnt get a ton of play time (it didn't come out perfectly and im not 100% sure what to do about that).

Aren’t you a little young for a middle-aged dentist’s guitar?
