Description

PRS’s Silver Sky is a love letter to the golden era of electric guitar tone, reimagined for today’s player. Designed in collaboration with Grammy-winning artist John Mayer and Paul Reed Smith, it blends the soul of a ’60s classic with the precision and playability you’d expect from a contemporary PRS. This SE Silver Sky is a more affordable version that retains many of John’s custom specs and the features that made the original such a hit. 2026 SE Silver Sky Defender limited edition PRS, John Mayer and Land Rover have joined forces to create a limited run of SE Silver Sky guitars in four contemporary Defender colourways. Available for a limited time, these collectible instruments feature black pickguards and control knobs (a first for the Silver Sky model) alongside a unique neck plate bearing the Defender logo and colour name. Each guitar also includes an exclusive PRS/Land Rover gig bag. John Mayer on the SE Silver Sky Defender “Teaming up with Defender to offer the Silver Sky guitar in their legendary 4×4 colours is a dream come true. I’ve always chosen colourways based on objects and materials that inspire me in the world, and as a collector and lover of Defenders, this collaboration is the perfect crossover between two great passions of mine.” — John Mayer Vintage vibes, modern precision Every detail of the SE Silver Sky has been carefully considered. From the inverted PRS headstock, which keeps string tension consistent and tuning rock solid, to the vintage-style tuners, this guitar is all about combining old-school mojo with modern reliability. The steel tremolo features a two-point design and sits flush to the body, allowing for downward pitch bends only while enhancing resonance and stability. Good tone is on the way… This PRS John Mayer SE signature guitar comes loaded with three 635JM “S” single-coil pickups voiced to John’s exact specifications. They sound warm, round and full of character, with a sweet top end that stays clear and articulate even when pushed.Key Features Limited-edition Defender Petra Copper finish: Takes its name from the ancient Jordanian city carved into rose-coloured rock, translating natural stone hues into a refined metallic finish. PRS 635JM “S” pickups: Full, warm vintage-inspired single-coils with a musical top end that’s never “ice-picky” or brash. 2-point steel tremolo: Comfortable vibrato action with exceptional tuning stability, featuring a modern 2-point mounting system.

Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.
