Description
The PRS Silver Sky came out of a real partnership between Paul Reed Smith and John Mayer, built around the guitars Mayer loved from the early ’60s. That heritage shows up in the neck carve, scale length, and fingerboard radius, all shaped to recall that era’s feel under your hand. But this isn’t a straight reissue — PRS updated the formula with a modified headstock silhouette and locking tuners, keeping tuning stability firmly in the present day.
The body’s familiar offset-style shape gets a twist in this Tungsten finish, where the cutaway scoop shows off a contrasting tone that catches the eye without shouting for attention. Plug it into a tube amp and the single-coil pickups do the rest of the talking: glassy, articulate voicing with the kind of note separation that makes chord work and single-note lines equally satisfying.
PRS backed up the tone with details that matter under the hood:
- Bone nut for clarity and sustain
- Molded metal jack plate
- Retooled control knobs
- Custom fret wire
- PRS double-action truss rod for easy relief adjustment
Whether you’re chasing that early-’60s single-coil sparkle or just want a guitar that plays as good as it looks, the Silver Sky in Tungsten delivers a modern take on a classic voice.
