PRS SE John Mayer Silver Sky Piano Black Rosewood Fingerboard

What we say:

At A Glance:

The PRS SE John Mayer Silver Sky in Piano Black is one of the most hotly anticipated guitar releases we've seen in a while and it doesn't disappoint. It features the same inverted headstock shape as the more expensive PRS model and also benefits from a bolt-on neck design. Due to the phenomenal success of the Silver Sky since it was released back in 2018, it is only right that PRS have created an SE version to allow even more guitarists to experience what makes the Silver Sky so great. Packed with the vintage influenced mojo that Mr. Mayer loves so much, we think you'll be surprised by just how much ground the SE John Mayer Silver Sky can cover!

Features We Love:

635JM Neck Carve

A key component that contributes hugely to the effortless playability of the SE John Mayer Silver Sky is the original shape neck carve. It takes its inspiration from vintage guitars and is joined by the 8.5" radius fretboard. This slightly larger radius (compared to the 7.25" of its sibling) actually allows for an easier setup. Together, these features form a trouble-free playing surface that maintains a classic feel and allows for easy chording and upper neck bends.

635JM "S" Pickups

Integral to the character of the SE John Mayer Silver Sky, these pickups deliver sparkling cleans with just enough bite for digging in with a bit of gain. Think about Mr. Mayer's silky lead tones from Last Train Home as an example of the kind of tonal territory that these pickups can get you into. The 5 Way Switch gives up plenty of options too. Delightful, satisfying, and very addictive!

2-Point Steel Tremolo

We really appreciate that PRS have kept up the high standard of hardware here on the SE model by using a steel tremolo rather than a cheaper alternative. It is an important part of the guitar's tone and although the 2 point is different to the 6 screw tremolo of its original counterpart, the tremolo performs smoothly and efficiently, meaning vibrato use is easy to control and reliable too.

Highlights:

• A more affordable version of the hugely popular Silver Sky
• Vintage inspired design with modern sensibilities
• A must-have for any John Mayer fan
• Distinctive colour finish
