PRS John Mayer Silversky USA | Mooloolaba Music

Welcome back to Mooloolaba Music, ladies and gentlemen! Chris the Guitar Tech here, reviewing one of the brightest and most popular guitars that are coming across our desk here on the Sunshine Coast: the PRS Silver Sky John Mayer USA Edition! This stunning instrument, here in the beautiful Frost colour, pays homage to the most revered single-coil classics while bringing the finesse and innovation of new-school guitar making. This is the American-made version—the absolute cream of the crop—developed over two years in close collaboration between John Mayer and the legend himself, Paul Reed Smith. Key Specs & Chris's Highlights: The Build: A beautiful Alder body with that striking Frost finish. It's PRS's answer to the classic single-coil build, but carving out its own unique spot in the market. Pickups: It features a trio of 635JM single-coils (neck, middle, and bridge). These are top-quality, high-fidelity pickups that give you all that classic blues, soul, R&B, and funky twang, but with a wonderfully clean sound—minimizing that notorious single-coil buzz! Neck Options: This one features a Maple fingerboard with a lovely, satin-finished Maple neck that feels incredibly "timber-esque to the touch." Rosewood is also available for those who prefer that traditional feel and slightly different note longevity! Headstock & Stability: Note the ingenious inverted PRS headstock design. It's not just for looks—it creates the perfect string break angle over the bone nut, ensuring phenomenal tuning stability. Hardware Upgrade: A touring musician's dream! It features PRS Locking Tuners and a sleek, bubble-style input jack for hassle-free plugging and unplugging. Trem System: Set up with four springs for a responsive, yet flat tremolo system, giving you that classic feel with modern stability. From the super funky Neck/Middle position (the ultimate 'panic button' for funk players) to that glorious, twangy Bridge pickup, the Silver Sky truly sounds as good as it looks.
