PRS 40th Anniversary McCarty SC56 Limited Edition - Faded Blue Jean with Hardshell Case

The PRS 40th Anniversary McCarty SC56 – Vintage Soul, Modern Precision

Premium Craftsmanship and Historic Vibe

The PRS 40th Anniversary McCarty SC56 Limited Edition is a stunning tribute to the golden era of electric guitars, crafted for modern players who demand uncompromising performance. Featuring a classic single-cutaway design and a beautifully figured maple top over a mahogany body, this instrument pairs traditional tonewoods with expert craftsmanship and a striking Faded Blue Jean finish. Built in celebration of PRS' four-decade legacy, this limited edition model captures the heart of vintage design with refined, contemporary enhancements.

Thoughtfully Designed for Exceptional Tone and Feel

With a 24.594" scale length, 22 frets, and a Pattern Vintage neck profile, the SC56 offers a warm, resonant voice and supreme playability. The slightly thicker body and set-neck construction enhance sustain and tonal depth, while weight relief reduces heft without sacrificing sonic integrity. This balance of build and comfort ensures that the guitar is ready for extented playing sessions.

McCarty III Pickups: Vintage Warmth with Clarity

A pair of McCarty III humbuckers vintage-inspired pickups engineered for articulate, vocal tone with pronounced note separation lie at the heart of this guitar. The traditional control layout includes dual volume and tone knobs with a 3-way toggle on the upper bout, giving you intuitive access to a wide tonal palette. Whether you're after crystalline clean tones or full-bodied growl, these pickups deliver with dynamic response and detail.

Refined Aesthetic Touches

This limited edition model boasts “Old School” bird inlays on a rosewood fingerboard, a rosewood veneer headstock with the classic Pre-Factory Eagle logo, and nickel hardware for understated elegance. Finished in high-gloss nitrocellulose, the SC56 not only looks timeless but will age beautifully with use. From its bound fretboard to its engraved truss rod cover, every detail reflects PRS' meticulous attention to quality and heritage.

Limited Edition with Exclusive Case and Accessories

Only 400 of these guitars will be made worldwide, making the SC56 a highly collectible piece of PRS history. It ships in a PRS ATA Multi-Fit Molded Case and includes case candy and a 40th Anniversary Certificate, ensuring that this instrument arrives protected and ready to perform, or be proudly displayed.
