Hello RT,

Look what arrived safe and sound!

Came packed oddly, but well enough and in a hardshell case, so it survived the trip.

Overall, only a ding or two more than I was expecting and a toggle and output swap, which the seller agreed to cover.

Works fine as is but the toggle is loose from use and the output jack works but needs replaced as well.

Stainless steel frets, super low 1mm action.

Really sick player here.

Truss rod works and has space left, perfect touch of relief.

Couple of quick pics.

Absolutely stunning top!!

Also, if anyone likes the guitar hanger and is interested in one, let me know, I have a family member who makes them by hand and loves to do so.

You got it! Congrats! Love the guitar hanger too, looks like a nice slab of varnished salt cedar! Giving me ideas!!!
 
There is one dead spot on the 1st fret of the high 2. 2nd fret looks slightly lifted, normal. Will get it nice and supported and a few taps with my fretting deadblow to see if that gets it handled. If not, I may have to spot level that fret.

Why is it always the 2nd fret on guitars??
 
These pick up sound great. Like, really, really nice. A lot more push than I was expecting. They measure at 7.6k and 8.6k.

Those are the same measurements I saw online from another McCarty from this year, so I am assuming they are stock.

The neck is quite sunken in to match the bridge which is close, but I can really make this thing scream on the lead channel. Very clear and articulate.

Wonderful surprise as I was almost certain I would need to replace them.
