PRS Silver Sky

The collaboration between the two legends John Mayer and Paul Reed Smith resulted in a huge shock in the world of electric guitar. The PRS Silver Sky is a guitar with a classic design, developed based on John Mayer's favorite guitars from the 1960s. The guitars offer a perfect combination of Vintage aesthetics and modern functionality.

Classic design

The design of the guitars is based on the ST guitars of the 60s. However, numerous modifications were made to improve the guitars even further. The base of the guitar is formed by an alder body. The screw-on maple neck with a vintage profile is available with either rosewood or maple fretboard . The coveted bird inlays are always included. Even the patented headstock was changed at John Mayer's request.

Unbeatable sound

The Silver Sky's sound is at least as impressive as its design. The guitars are equipped with three 635 JM single-coil pickups specially developed for the Silver Sky. These deliver a clear, transparent sound with a certain Vintage flair. The unique sound of the Silver Sky is ideal for many different styles of music.

Modern playability

When designing the Silver Sky, great attention was paid to playability. There are a lot of small details that come together that make a big difference in player comfort. This includes a 7.25" fretboard radius, a Vintage-inspired neck profile and an enlarged cutaway in the body. A tremolo system developed by PRS is also included.

Lots of high quality finishes

The PRS Silver Sky is available in many premium and stunning high gloss nitro finishes.

About PRS

PRS Guitars sets its own standards when it comes to electric guitars. At session you will find not only the high class PRS custom shop guitars but also models from the mid-price range and electric basses from PRS. At NAMM 2016, PRS is taking a look into the past and, with the CE 24 models, has been presenting guitars with screw-on neck and maple necks in their main range for many years, which offer an interesting alternative to traditional construction. Later, the collaboration with John Mayer resulted in an incredibly successful instrument, the Silver Sky series, which was initially supplemented by additional colors and later by a cheaper SE series .

Through his great passion for guitar building and meticulous research and optimization of his models, company founder Paul Reed Smith has been creating instruments that are rightly considered true works of art for over 40 years. Not only guitar legends like Carlos Santana play the high-quality PRS guitars from the standard series, the exclusive Private Stock or even the cheaper SE production.

Paul Reed Smith is making a name for himself

The American guitar maker PRS Guitars was officially founded in 1985, but the company's founder and namesake, Paul Reed Smith, has been making guitars since around 1975. By giving his guitars to stars like Carlos Santana, Al Di Meola and Peter Frampton and convincing them directly, his instruments became more and more famous. Series production of the Custom 24 finally began in 1985. With former Gibson President Ted McCarty, Paul Reed Smith was able to gain an experienced consultant and the course was set for success for the guitars with the typical bird inlays in the fretboard .

Every guitar is a custom shop model

PRS guitars tend to be in the higher price ranges because of the high-quality materials and careful workmanship. The SE line, which has been manufactured in Korea and is of a high quality despite cheaper materials, has existed since the 1990s. The S2 series forms a link because the instruments are made in the USA, but are still quite affordable.

PRS calls all instruments custom shop instruments due to the high quality and customization options, but with the private stock instruments the company goes one step further and sets real standards in terms of materials, quality, originality and individuality. All PRS guitars have one thing in common: they are real workhorses with a lot of flexibility and look outrageously good at the same time. This can also be seen in the countless endorsers who swear by their PRS , as well as the numerous signature models from artists such as John Mayer, Carlos Santana, Orianthi, Mark Tremonti and Chad Kroeger.
