  • I just ordered this beauty off of reverb.com, and I am absolutely blown away. Intonation is perfect, the feel is beyond amazing, she sounds way better than I thought she would, and look at that gorgeous butterscotch/honey burst finish!

    Glad I came across this video! Becasue of your review I checked out a 2004 McCarty at my local GC yesterday. As soon as I held the guitar, I knew it was coming home with me. Love it! Thanks again for posting your helpful video almost 5 years ago!

      Do you have a McCarty model? Nice! You should put a video of you playing it on your UA-cam page. I just see videos of you playing with looks like a PRS silver sky.
      I looked at your videos on your UA-cam page. Looks like you are new to playing guitar, about a year or so? I do have students online in multiple countries, if you’re looking to take private lessons.
      In short, I teach advanced techniques to beginner and intermediate students, making it easier to play better and much quicker than just taking lessons and learning basic chords, basic notes, tablature, etc.

    Thanks for sharing! You convinced me to pull the trigger on a 2002. The fat neck is so amazing, isn't it? Do you still have yours? Still feel the same way? How's the intonation holding up? I was also blown away by the intonation...first wraparound bridge for me.

    • @davidbrucemusicvideo
      @davidbrucemusicvideo  7 років тому

      Stephane Beauchamp-Kiss, interesting that you would mention something about the bridge, because years ago when I saw that PRS was using bridges like that, I thought it was strange and I could not understand how a high-end guitar maker would use such a piece of crap bridge because I am used to Les Paul bridges, where you can change the intonation. But I am surprised at how good the intonation is on this, actually. This guitar is amazing, but I am actually selling it to find a business endeavor I am embarking on. How much are you going to be spending on the 2002? Is it a McCarty? Maybe we can take care of you... inbox me on Facebook, if you would like to talk more. 🤔😉
