Some guitars are rare. Others feel like transmissions from a universe that briefly overlapped with ours — never to be repeated. The PRS Limited Edition McCarty 594 Mango Top in Black Gold Burst is exactly that: 100 pieces worldwide for 2026, born from one of the most visually extraordinary tonewoods the Interstellar Tone Traveler has ever encountered. Mangifera Indica — mango — brings a bees-wing grain pattern so alive and shifting that no two tops look alike, and beneath Black Gold Burst it becomes something otherworldly entirely. Deep, rich blackness envelops the edges and bleeds toward the center where golden amber light breaks through the mango grain like starlight piercing through a dark nebula — a finish that shifts, moves, and reveals new dimensions with every angle, framed perfectly by smoked black hardware that enhances the drama without competing with it. Paired with a ziricote fretboard and headstock veneer — an exotic, darkly beautiful wood adorned with PRS's iconic "Old School" Bird inlays in outline form — this McCarty 594 exists in its own orbit, a visual identity that echoes a distant star burning through the dark at just 7 lbs 1 oz.

Beneath that extraordinary surface lives the heart of one of PRS's most celebrated platforms. The McCarty 594's slightly thicker mahogany body with violin-carved mango top and 24.594" scale length deliver a comfortably vintage-inspired feel, while the Pattern Vintage mahogany neck — measuring 7/8" at the first fret and 63/64" at the twelfth — fills the hand with a familiar, substantial profile that invites hours of deep exploration across 24 frets on a 10" radius ziricote board. McCarty III pickups provide a warm, full humbucking voice with remarkable clarity — covering rich, soulful rhythm tones, articulate lead work, and nuanced single-coil textures via two push/pull tone controls with effortless command. PRS's two-piece bridge and Phase III Non-Locking tuners with Wing buttons ensure exceptional sustain, resonance, and tuning stability across any mission. Finished in gloss nitro on both body and neck and housed in a PRS ATA Multi-Fit Molded Case — this is the McCarty 594 elevated into a dimension all its own. For the Interstellar Tone Traveler who demands instruments that stand completely alone — this one burns in its own galaxy.
