PRS Guitars Introduce the Long-Awaited PRS SE Silver Sky
PRS Guitars and John Mayer have officially announced the arrival of the PRS SE Silver Sky. The PRS SE Silver Sky was first confirmed by PRS Guitars and Mayer in December of 2021.
“With the release of the SE Silver Sky, PRS has kept the modern design aesthetic, tone, and feel of the original model and made it accessible to more guitar players, from beginner to professional. I couldn’t be happier it with it,” said John Mayer.
The PRS SE Silver Sky is a familiar iteration of Mayer’s signature model, which was first introduced with John Mayer in 2018. The SE model starts with a poplar body, bolt-on maple neck, and rosewood fretboard with PRS trademark bird inlays. The 22-fret, 25.5” scale length neck features the original 635JM carve and an 8.5” fretboard radius, which will make the SE Silver Sky feel right at home. The SE Silver Sky comes in four colors: Dragon Fruit, Ever Green, Moon White, and Stone Blue.
At the heart of the instrument are the three single-coil pickups, which were meticulously designed to capture the voicing of the original Silver Sky. The 635JM “S” pickups capture the same round, full tone with musical high end that is never too harsh and add a bit of a bite. This guitar is anchored by a two-point steel tremolo, synthetic bone nut, and vintage-style tuners. Other design features include the PRS Silver Sky inverted headstock shape and the PRS double-acting truss rod (accessible from the front of the headstock for ease of use). This instrument ships with PRS Classic 10-46 strings and a PRS SE gig bag.
