PRS 509 Electric Guitar - McCarty Sunburst

The 509, a highly versatile guitar within the PRS lineup, utilizes 5 pickups to produce 9 distinctive and melodious tones. It features a foundation of 5 single coil pickups, with the four outer coils grouped together as humbuckers. With the inclusion of an inventive switching system comprising a 5-way blade switch and two mini toggle coil-tap switches, musicians can access a wide range of humbucking, single-coil, and blended sounds.
