Born from the signature model introduced with John Mayer, the Silver Sky redefined the S-type in PRS style. The SE version retains the familiar ergonomics, refined finishes, and iconic aesthetics while making them more accessible. This Maple "Stone Blue" version preserves the DNA of the original model and translates it into a robust platform designed to handle rehearsals, stages, and studio sessions without compromise.
From motivated students to seasoned musicians, the SE Silver Sky Maple suits anyone seeking a responsive and inspiring guitar. It excels in pop, funk, soul, blues, and modern rock. The 635JM profile offers a natural feel for both rhythm and lead playing, while the maple fingerboard enhances attack and clarity of ghost notes, muted notes, and dynamic phrases.
The three 635JM "S" single-coil pickups deliver sculpted clarity and singing mids, with tight lows that don?t bleed. The 5-position selector covers classic positions 2 and 4 with elastic "quack," a broad and silky neck position, and a more aggressive bridge position to cut through the mix. The progressive volume/tone controls allow smoothing of the highs without choking projection.
The poplar body ensures a well-balanced spectrum and quick response. The bolt-on maple neck adds brightness and attack, while the 2-point steel tremolo maximizes resonance and sustain, with reliable tuning stability for subtle vibratos or more expressive inflections.
Opt for a set of nickel strings 10-46, a strap with classic strap buttons, a flat capo for electric guitar, and a quality 6.35 mm instrument jack cable. A gig bag is included to protect the instrument during daily transport.
