Overview
The PRS 40th Anniversary McCarty SC56 Limited Edition in McCarty Sunburst is a masterful celebration of four decades of PRS guitar innovation. Combining vintage inspiration with modern playability, this guitar delivers golden-era tone and next-level reliability for today’s players and collectors.
A maple top with a lush McCarty Sunburst gloss sits over a weight-relieved mahogany back, producing classic warmth, clarity, and resonance while remaining comfortable at just 7 lbs 7 oz. The one-piece mahogany neck features the Pattern Vintage carve and a bound rosewood fretboard, adorned with signature “old school” bird inlays.
At the heart of the SC56’s voice are the PRS McCarty III pickups, designed for exceptional note separation, warmth, and expressiveness—paired with a traditional two-volume, two-tone, 3-way toggle control layout for instant tonal flexibility.
Premium hardware, a bone nut, Phase III tuners, and the “Pre-Factory” Eagle logo make this limited edition a true PRS classic—ready for the studio, stage, or any world-class collection.
