About PRS Guitars
The many models of PRS Guitars are designed so that every player can find the one that's
right for his/her style. The first to appear in 1985 was the PRS Custom 24. Featuring a 2
octave low action neck, patented tremelo system, custom designed pickups, and a unique
switching system this guitar became an immediate hit and set a new level of quality for
the industry. The PRS Custom 24 is a very versatile instrument which is especially well
suited to the modern player.The five way rotary switch has 2 humbucking and 3 tapped
positions which offer a wide range of sounds from super clean to agressive hi gain. The
next variation of the PRS Custom was the Custom 22. By removing the final two frets the
rhythm pickup could be placed in a position similar to that of the vintage Strats and Les
Pauls thus giving the guitar a a warmer, rounder sound. The PRS Custom 22 also
introduced several other features including the option of a fatter neck and a stop tail bridge for
those players who didn't need a vibrato bridge. New pickups with a fatter tone were
chosen to enhance the warm sound of the Custom 22.
The PRS McCarty was introduced a while later as a variation on the Custom 22. Named for
Ted McCarty, who was president of Gibson during their golden era of the 50's and early
60's, the McCarty model was built due to the demand of many players for an even more
vintage sounding guitar that had the playability and high quality of a PRS Guitars guitar.
The PRS McCarty features an east coast maple top which has a different density than the
maple on other PRS Guitars models and makes a "woodier sound". A steeper headstock
angle, thicker body, and McCarty model pickups with a 3 way toggle and coil tap help create
a sound that's close to your vintage favorites but more versatile.
In recent years PRS has issued Hollow body models aimed for the jazz/fusion player.
These PRS guitars have the advantage of creating the tone of a large hollow guitar in a
more comfortable size. Also available as an option on any PRS Hollow Body guitar is the
exclusive PRS Guitars piezo bridge that allows your guitar sound like an electric acoustic
flat top.
