The John Mayer SE Silver Sky is an affordable version of the modern blues-pop master’s best-selling PRS signature guitar that was first introduced in 2018. Strongly resembling Mayer’s USA model with its elegant double-cutaway body, inverted PRS headstock and trio of single-coil pickups — the PRS SE Silver Sky Maple is a versatile workhorse designed to provide similarly exquisite tones and familiar playability, but at a far more accessible price-point!

Key Features

  • Poplar Body — Often likened to Alder, Poplar is comparably balanced in sound with a slightly lighter feel.
  • Bolt-On Construction — Produces a snappy note response for an immediate playing experience.
  • 25.5″ Scale Length — Provides optimal string tension; letting you dig in for funky “New Light” style chords while allowing for soulful, expressive string bends.
  • Maple Neck with Original ‘635JM’ Carve — Based on the same custom neck shape used for Mayer’s USA Silver Sky. According to Lee Anderton, PRS “nailed” it! Features a satin-style finish for a smooth and natural playing feel.
  • 8.5″ Fingerboard Radius — Offers a slightly flatter and more contemporary feel than the vintage-inspired 7.25″ radius on the USA Silver Sky model.
  • 635JM “S” Pickups — Designed to capture the sound of the single-coils in the American-made Silver Sky, these pickups “bark and sing” according to PRS!
  • 5-Way Pickup Switching — Provides a wide sonic palette; letting you isolate each pickup or combine the middle single-coil with the bridge/neck pickups for those classic “in-between” tones.
  • 2-Point Steel Tremolo — A reliable bridge that enables smooth vibrato whenever inspiration strikes.
  • Vintage-Style Tuners — Possess a classy, traditional look and allow for precise string pitching.
  • Included PRS SE Gig Bag — High-quality design ensures solid protection for the instrument.

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. 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.

Guitars

Guitars cover a wide range of instruments designed to suit different styles, techniques, and sounds, from acoustic and classical models to solid body, semi-hollow, and hollow electric designs. Factors like body shape, scale length, neck profile, string type, and pickups all influence how a guitar feels and responds, making each type suited to different players and musical approaches. Whether used for rhythm, lead, songwriting, or experimentation, guitars are expressive, versatile instruments that form the heart of countless genres and playing styles.

Solid Body Electric Guitars

Solid body electric guitars are built from a solid piece or pieces of wood, giving them excellent sustain, stability, and resistance to feedback at higher volumes. This construction makes them well suited to amplified playing across a wide range of styles, from clean and articulate tones to heavy, high-gain sounds. Their design allows pickups and hardware to play a major role in shaping tone, while the solid body provides a consistent, reliable feel. Solid body electric guitars are valued for their durability, versatility, and ability to perform confidently on stage and in the studio.
