Vintage appeal meets modern ingenuity in the PRS Silver Sky electric guitar.

Bringing together the best of both worlds, the PRS Silver Sky electric guitar pairs vintage style with modern engineering. This stunning instrument is the result of a collaboration between PRS and acclaimed guitarist John Mayer, who drew inspiration from his favorite 1960s guitars. The Silver Sky boasts a sleek double-cutaway body shape with a custom signature neck modeled after prized vintage instruments. Equipped with a tremolo bridge that improves resonance and signal-to-noise ratio, this guitar is acoustically louder for enhanced tone. It has vintage-style tuners with PRS's locking design that make staying in tune effortless. The versatile pickup configuration delivers a rich, musical tone that's never harsh. From the nut to the knobs, every detail of the Silver Sky is optimized for an ideal playing experience.

Play Authentically With a Custom Signature Neck Profile

Once you grab the Silver Sky's neck, you'll immediately feel the vintage vibe. Its slim profile and smooth contours echo the necks of 1960s guitars that inspired it. Carefully shaped by Paul Reed Smith and John Mayer, it promotes comfortable, agile playing. The feel is further enhanced by the fingerboard's 7.25" radius and narrower vintage-style frets. From the moment your fingers start moving, this neck simply feels right.

Play With Vintage-Inspired Style

When you pick up the PRS Silver Sky, you'll immediately notice its vintage vibe. Drawing from the most cherished features of 1960s guitars, the Silver Sky's double-cutaway alder body provides a sleek, contoured look. The custom signature neck has a feel you'll love, shaped after highly desirable vintage models. The fingerboard boasts a comfortable 7.25" radius along with perfectly dressed medium frets for effortless bending and vibratos. The headstock design stays true to PRS's trademark, keeping consistent string length for tuning stability. Oozing vintage style, this exceptional guitar combines classic inspiration with modern reliability.

Flawless Intonation With Locking Tuners

The PRS Silver Sky is equipped with vintage-style tuners that incorporate PRS's ingenious locking design. Making tuning frustration a thing of the past, they ensure your guitar stays in tune song after song. The tuners maintain ideal string tension behind the nut for consistent intonation. You can even pull strings through the back of the headstock if needed. With tuning stability covered, you can focus on your music knowing the Silver Sky will always be ready for the next chord.

Dynamic Tone That Sings

Packed with versatile tonal potential, the PRS Silver Sky has a pickup configuration that will bring out your best. It sports two custom Artist Signature single-coil pickups in the neck and middle positions, along with a custom single-coil in the bridge. Together they generate a tone that's musically rich, full and smooth, without any harsh or ice-picky high end. The steel tremolo bridge enhances resonance and sustain for singing notes that won't fade away too soon. Dial in tones from sweet and mellow to bold and biting with the master volume and two tone knobs.

With Alnico Pickups That Handle Overdrive With Musicality

The custom-designed 635JM single-coil pickups deliver a rounded tone with singing highs that never turn shrill. There's enough output to push an amp into organic tube-like breakup, with bloom and compression that preserves note clarity even with heavy gain. The bridge pickup has just enough twang to put a little snap into riffing while retaining a smooth voice. With the 5-way pickup selector, you've got total tonal flexibility. Find sweet spots between neck and bridge pickups or activate all three for a lush chorus-like effect.

Playability Perfected

With the PRS Silver Sky, every detail has been optimized for playability. It has a bone nut, steel tremolo bridge and perfectly dressed frets along the rosewood fingerboard. The curved jack plate streamlines connecting cables, while the molded metal knobs are retooled for ergonomic control. PRS even uses fretwire that's slightly narrower than usual. Combined with the custom neck shape, these specs make chords and riffs a breeze. The Silver Sky gives you a flawlessly playable instrument that handles like a dream.
