2006 Paul Reed Smith McCarty 10 Top Blue Matteo w/ Rosewood Wide Fat Neck, Case & Hangtags
The mahogany body, carved maple top and rosewood neck result in an instrument with terrific natural warmth and sustain, and this McCarty weighs 8lbs. The McCarty humbuckers are wound in the PAF camp, particularly articulate, sweet, and expressive with a full-bodied warmth, and there is a global push/pull coil tap at the Tone control for clear, sparkling single coil cut. This McCarty benefits from a professional setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
Neck Specs:
-Wood: Rosewood, long tenon
-Shape: Wide Fat, measuring .860” 1st fret, .945” 12th fret
-Fretboard: Rosewood, abalone Birds in Flight inlay
-Frets: Medium jumbo, light wear beneath the plain strings on frets 1-8
-Scale Length: 25"
-Nut: 1 11/16”
-Tuners: Kluson-style
-Serialization: 6-prefix (2006), “10” stamp denotes 10 Top status
Body Specs:
-Wood: Flame maple, mahogany
-Pickups: McCarty Bass/Treble humbuckers
-Controls: Volume, Tone (push/pull Coil Tap), Three-way pickup selector
-Hardware: Compensated wraparound bridge, rosewood pickup surrounds and knobs (with abalone bird inlays)
The gloss Blue Matteo finish is particularly vibrant, highlighting the tight, straight figuring in the flame maple top. There is some shallow buckle rash on the back central to the lower bout and various small dings along the lower bout perimeter and at the bass side of the top. The satin finish on the neck profile is flawless.
The original hardshell case is included, along with the serialized hangtags.
