The PRS SE Silver Sky electric guitar brings the celebrated tone and vintage-inspired feel of the original Silver Sky into a more accessible format. Designed in collaboration with John Mayer, this solidbody workhorse combines classic single-coil charm with modern PRS precision. It features a poplar body, bolt-on maple neck and matching maple fretboard, complete with PRS's signature bird inlays. The 635JM "S" pickups serve up glassy highs, focused mids and a round low end, all dialed in with a five-way switch. Available in four striking new finishes, the SE Silver Sky is built for players who demand premium tone, pro-level performance and effortlessly cool aesthetics—all in one ultrareliable and supremely playable package.
Lightweight Poplar Body With Iconic Style
The SE Silver Sky features a contoured poplar body that's lightweight, resonant and comfortable for long playing sessions. Its silhouette draws from classic double-cutaway designs, refined with PRS's signature touches like the sculpted lower horn and inverted headstock. The body is finished in one of four bold new colorways that highlight its sleek curves and vintage flair. Whether you're on stage or in the studio, the SE Silver Sky's classic styling and ergonomic balance make it a visually striking and performance-ready instrument.
Maple Neck and Fretboard Deliver Snappy Response and Smooth Playability
Anchoring the SE Silver Sky is a bolt-on maple neck topped with a matching maple fingerboard, giving the guitar a snappy, articulate tone with smooth playability. The 25.5" scale length and comfortable 635JM neck carve strike a familiar balance for players who prefer a slightly fuller grip without excessive bulk. The 8.5" fretboard radius supports easy chording and expressive bending, while 22 frets and PRS's trademark bird inlays round out the visual and functional details. Every element of the neck was designed with comfort, speed and precision in mind.
635JM "S" Pickups Provide Vintage Single-Coil Chime
Loaded with a trio of PRS-designed 635JM "S" single coils, the SE Silver Sky offers rich, glassy tones with a slightly rounder high end. These pickups were voiced specifically to emulate vintage single-coil character without the harsh bite—perfect for blues, pop, rock and funk. With a five-way blade selector and a straightforward volume/tone layout, it's easy to dial in everything from sparkling cleans to biting leads. The pickups respond beautifully to dynamics and picking attack, making this a highly expressive instrument for players who thrive on nuance and feel.
High-Quality Hardware With Elegant PRS Appointments
The SE Silver Sky is built with the same precision and attention to detail that define every PRS instrument. A two-point steel tremolo offers smooth vibrato control and excellent tuning stability, while vintage-style tuners keep the look classic and the function reliable. A synthetic bone nut enhances sustain and tonal consistency across the fretboard. Additional premium touches include a double-acting truss rod that's front-accessible for quick adjustments and a padded PRS gig bag for on-the-go protection. Every detail reflects PRS's commitment to musical craftsmanship and player-friendly design.
A Versatile, Stage-Ready Workhorse for Gigging Musicians
Designed for guitarists who want classic tone and trusted performance in a roadworthy format, the PRS SE Silver Sky electric guitar blends tradition with modern sensibility. Its clean looks, custom-voiced pickups and intuitive hardware layout make it a top contender for any gigging or recording situation. Whether you're chasing vintage single-coil tones or looking for a reliable daily driver that won't compromise on feel or quality, the SE Silver Sky delivers. It's a thoughtful reimagining of a modern classic—ready to make your sound soar.
