SOLD - PRS McCarty Soapbar Goldtop
I only recently bought this from Keefy and it's a bloody cracker but something else has given me GAS and blown my skirt up so I need to move it on. I'm asking what I paid which was £1150 plus delivery. You're welcome of course to collect with cash or arrange your own courier. Comes with solid box and will be safely wrapped!
It's from 1999 and I've copied the details from Keefy's ad.....
Body
Double cutaway
Mahogany back (1/8in thicker than the Custom etc.)
East coast maple top in gold finish
Neck
Set neck
Rosewood fretboard
Wide-fat profile
22 frets
25in scale length
Phases-of-the-moon dot inlays
Hardware
Wrap-around bridge
Vintage-style tuners
Electronics
2x Seymour Duncan soap-bar single coils (hum-cancelling when both selected)
3-way toggle selector switch
1x volume, 1x tone control
Sounds
The basic sound of this guitar is spanky single-coil Tele-on-steroids, but with plenty of underlying fatness. Roll back the tone control, and you are into Gibson territory. This is one supremely versatile guitar, and has a huge output!
Keefy fitted a treble bleed circuit (1nF Orange Drop cap in parallel with 150k resistor) so it now retains brightness as you roll back the volume control.
Condition
There are some dings on the neck and body, which I have tried to show in the pictures. In particular there is a spot on the upper edge where a chunk of finish has been crunched, but it seems to have been filled in with clear lacquer so that it can barely be felt. There is also a dent in the bass side of the neck between the 15th and 16th frets, but this has never affected playability.
Comes with fitted hard case (a standard Strat-type case is not a good fit).

Someone buy this, please.
Can you play either?
Think of this as a free bump.
