PRS Guitars SE John Mayer Silver Sky

Flying in the Silver Sky

John Mayer is a walking contradiction. Thanks to hits like "Your Body is a Wonderland" and "Daughters," he is one of the biggest pop stars walking the earth today. He could probably spend the rest of his life filling arenas with people drawn to his catchy, cleverly written pop tunes. But, Mayer decided to forge a different path, because he is also one of the biggest guitar nerds breathing! After all, he's the same person who worked long hours at a gas station as a teenager so he could afford an SRV signature Strat.

Mayer's appreciation for the blues runs deep, and so do his skills. But don't take my word for it: ask Eric Clapton, B.B. King, and Buddy Guy, because he has collaborated with all of them. Finally, to top it off, Mayer started playing with Bob Weir in the Dead & Company! Frankly, he may be the only musician with the range to play Grateful Dead tunes with 3/5ths of the Grateful Dead one night, jam with B.B. King the next, and play a recording session with rapper Travis Scott the next.

Players of John's caliber often find themselves drawn to Paul Reed Smith, and in 2015 the two collaborated on the PRS Super Eagle. After that was a runaway success, they pondered their next endeavor. Would it be possible to capture the magic of John Mayer's favorite vintage axes from the sixties in an affordable guitar that paid homage to classic designs while also presenting a new point of view? After two and a half years of arduous research and development, they discovered that such a feat of design was possible. Their next collaboration, the PRS Silver Sky, set the guitar world on fire.

Now, we are proud to present the latest from this dynamic duo: the SE Silver Sky. The PRS SE Silver Sky provides players with the immaculate vibes, killer tone, and playability of the Silver Sky at a player-friendly price point, and we are delighted to showcase it for our awesome customers.
