PRS John Mayer Signature Silver Sky, Maple Fingerboard - Venetian Blue (872)

The PRS Silver Sky is the beautiful result of a years-long collaboration between John Mayer and Paul Reed Smith. A perfected modern version of a vintage singe-coil guitar, the Silver Sky is based on Mayer and Smith’s favorite aspects of 1963 and 1964 vintage instruments. Some of this model's most customized specifications include the headstock shape, tuners, neck and fretboard, bridge, pickups and electronics, synthesizing vintage design with modern quality. The headstock shape is based on PRS’s trademark design, but inverted to accommodate Mayer’s signature playing style. The tuners are a traditional closed-back tuner, now rendered in PRS’s locking design. The neck shape was inspired by 1963/1964 vintage instruments. Like the tuners, the steel tremolo takes a classic design and incorporates PRS’s trem arm and Gen III knife-edge screws. The bridge on the Silver Sky is setup flush to the body in the neutral position so that the tremolo bridge only goes down in pitch. The 635JM single-coil pickups are round and full, for a musical high-end that is never “ice-picky” or brash. The body of this guitar truly is a wonderland!
