NGD - PRS 594

PVO_Dave · March 4

Regretted letting go of the Stripped 58 goldtop I had, but it helped at the time with a house deposit, made the mistake last week of "seeing what's out there", next thing you know I'm meeting a stranger at Rugby services to buy his guitar

Beautiful guitar this, quality is superb, usual rock solid stability and playability from PRS, sounds great too.

Wow, I've not seen a 594 goldtop before. I'm quite taken aback by just how nice it looks.

Agreed, really makes the contours pop

Looks lovely!

Much as PRS have really made their name with fancy maple tops, the dramatic body carve really suits solid and metallic colours. Love to see them!

Beautiful, nice score.

The string spacing between the bottom E & A in the first photo above the fretboard is playing havoc with my eyes though. I thought one of them must have come off its saddle but imagine your hand has displaced the E the way you were gripping the guitar for the photo?

I do like a 594. Nice.

It's definitely hand displacement! One thing I could say of every PRS I've owned is that string alignment, on the fretboard, at the nut and over the pickup polepieces, is absolutely perfect.

Can’t go wrong with a gold top. That looks brilliant.

Yep same here. I don't usually like gold guitars but that looks great!

Very nice indeed.

Lovely, it doesn't have 57/08's ? or they're not engraved if so. The stripper would have had them, how do these pups compare ?

Thanks all, really pleased with it. I know PRS isn’t for everyone (my dream guitar was always the LP Custom
in white, which I bought in 2008), but it’s an incredible instrument.

Just down to me, trying to hold it in one hand whilst taking a photo with the other

The 594’s have 58/15 LT, the stripped 58 had the 57/08’s.

Can’t really say with any certainty the differences, as it was around 5/6 years ago, but these sound really nice, low output, so more of a vintage sound, short version, they sound great through my favourite profiles on the Kemper
