Paul Reed Smith's guitarist, Paul Reed Smith, said, "It's been a dream of mine for a long time to create a guitar that combines the feel of the vintage guitars I love with modern aesthetics. After many trials and errors with Paul Reed Smith, the Silver Sky is exactly what I envisioned in terms of both looks and playability, and I hope that anyone who picks it up will find a new fascination with the electric guitar. - John Mayer

The PRS Silver Sky features the original PRS single-coil pickups designed to inherit the sound of the vintage guitars that John Mayer and Paul Reed Smith love so much, especially those manufactured in 1963-64. The design concept of this guitar is a departure from the image of the past.

After two years of research and development, the Silver Sky was born with a clear sound that both John and Paul were aiming for, and a wealth of original PRS parts that were designed and developed just for the sound and playability of this guitar.

The headstock shape, a trademark of PRS, has been redesigned with a reverse headstock to match John Mayer's playing style, and at the same time, the distance from the nut to the tuners has been increased to further enhance tuning stability.

The tuners are traditional vintage style Cruson type, but with the original PRS pegs with PRS locking system. The original steel tremolo is attached solidly to the body with the arm in the neutral position. This setting allows the bridge to move only in the pitch-down direction, but it improves the raw sound of the body by gaining ground contact between the bridge and the body, leading to a dynamic sound and improved signal-to-noise ratio of the single-coil pickups.

The 635JM pickup is a PRS original pickup developed exclusively for Silver Sky, and is characterized by its wide range, fat and crisp sound.

In addition, the Silver Sky's fingerboard is available in rosewood or maple, and both have a 7.25" fingerboard radius. The rosewood fingerboard neck has a slightly more rounded shoulder, making it more comfortable in the palm of the hand. Both fingerboard necks are the result of careful research of vintage guitars and John Mayer's own extensive on-stage testing.

The molded jack plate, a completely original design that allows for smooth plug insertion and removal, was also conceived with live use in mind.

We hope that the Silver Sky, created by John Mayer and Paul Reed Smith, will become the new choice for guitarists around the world, regardless of musical genre, such as rock, blues, jazz, or funk.
