PRS John Mayer Silver Sky Roxy Pink

The PRS Silver Sky is the result of a close collaboration between Grammy Award-winning musician John Mayer and Paul Reed Smith. More than two and a half years in the making, the Silver Sky is a vintage-inspired instrument that is at once familiar but also new PRS through and through. This model was based on Mayer and Smith's favorite elements of the 1963 and 1964 vintage instruments, resulting in an idealized version of a vintage single-coil guitar. The attention paid to every detail sets this guitar apart.

Some of the more distinctive specifications include the headstock shape, tuners, neck and fretboard, bridge and pickups and electronics. The headstock shape is based on PRS's trademark design, but reversed to both accommodate Mayer's playing style and also to keep a consistent string length behind the nut, making it easier to keep in tune. The tuners are a traditional vintage style closed tuner but with PRS's locking design. The neck shape is modeled after vintage 1963/1964 instruments, and the fingerboard has a 7.25" radius. The moment your hand grips this neck, it just feels right. Like the tuners, the steel tremolo has a classic design and incorporates PRS's trem arm and Gen III knife screws. The bridge on the Silver Sky is set flush to the body in neutral, so the tremolo bridge only goes down in pitch. By keeping the bridge in contact with the body, the guitar itself is acoustically higher, improving signal/ the noise ratio of the single-coil pickups The 635JM single-coil pickups are very round and full.
