An essentially immaculate example of the gorgeous PRS John Mayer SE Silver Sky Electric Guitar in Storm Grey.
The John Mayer SE Silver Sky is an affordable version of the modern blues-pop master's best-selling PRS signature guitar that was first introduced in 2018. Strongly resembling Mayer's USA model with its elegant double-cutaway body, inverted PRS headstock and trio of single-coil pickups — the PRS SE Silver Sky is a versatile workhorse designed to provide similarly exquisite tones and familiar playability, but at a far more accessible price-point!
Key Features
- Poplar Body — Often likened to Alder, Poplar is comparably balanced in sound with a slightly lighter feel.
- Bolt-On Construction — Produces a snappy note response for an immediate playing experience.
- 25.5" Scale Length — Provides optimal string tension; letting you dig in for funky "New Light" style chords while allowing for soulful, expressive string bends.
- Maple Neck with Original '635JM' Carve — Based on the same custom neck shape used for Mayer's USA Silver Sky. According to Lee Anderton, PRS "nailed" it! Features a satin-style finish for a smooth and natural playing feel.
- Rosewood Fingerboard — A luxurious, silky material that enhances mid-range warmth. Comes fitted with 22 frets and boasts PRS' trademark "Small Bird" inlays.
- 8.5" Fingerboard Radius — Offers a slightly flatter and more contemporary feel than the vintage-inspired 7.25" radius on the USA Silver Sky model.
- 635JM "S" Pickups — Designed to capture the sound of the single-coils in the American-made Silver Sky, these pickups "bark and sing" according to PRS!
- 5-Way Pickup Switching — Provides a wide sonic palette; letting you isolate each pickup or combine the middle single-coil with the bridge/neck pickups for those classic "in-between" tones.
- 2-Point Steel Tremolo — A reliable bridge that enables smooth vibrato whenever inspiration strikes.
- Vintage-Style Tuners — Possess a classy, traditional look and allow for precise string pitching.
- Included PRS SE Gig Bag — High-quality design ensures solid protection for the instrument.
