PRS

Description

Rare, refined and ready for the spotlight, this limited-edition Silver Sky dressed in vivid Wild Blue nitro is a stunning celebration of PRS’s long-running partnership with John Mayer. Inspired by Mayer’s love of turquoise-tinted luxury watches, the Wild Blue finish was first prototyped in 2018—only to be hidden away in the PRS vault for years. Now, the Wild Blue Silver Sky arrives in a limited run of 1,000, sporting a color-matched headstock for the first time in the model’s history. Beneath its storied exterior, the guitar maintains the classic Silver Sky formula: a resonant alder body and 7.25” radius rosewood fretboard that delivers the broken-in feel of a prized vintage original. Mayer’s custom-voiced 635JM pickups provide a warm, musical snap, while the Gen III steel tremolo and locking tuners ensure rock-solid stability. Blending boutique artistry with pure, road-ready performance, the Wild Blue Silver Sky stands as a definitive icon for both the collector and the professional player.

Classic Alder Body With Resonant, Balanced Tone

The Silver Sky’s alder body delivers the perfect balance of warmth, resonance and sustain, providing a versatile foundation for expressive modern stylists. Its iconic double-cutaway silhouette and carefully contoured edges maintain the familiar comfort of a Silver Sky, while the high-gloss Wild Blue nitro finish not only dazzles visually but also enhances the tonal transparency of the wood. Lightweight yet robust, the body responds dynamically to every nuance, supporting both shimmering cleans and saturated overdrive tones. With its vintage-inspired style and player-focused refinement, it’s a seamless marriage of form, feel and sonic potential.

Custom Maple Neck and Rosewood Fingerboard for a Smooth, Familiar Feel

The sleek maple neck is carved to John Mayer’s custom 635 JM-R profile, delivering fluid movement across all positions. Scarf-joint construction ensures stability and precise alignment, while the rosewood fretboard provides a warm, articulate response. Its 7.25” radius paired with 22 medium frets and small bird inlays offers a classic feel, ideal for expressive bends, intricate chord work and signature Mayer-style phrasing. Every detail—from nut width to neck depth—is engineered to optimize comfort and performance, making extended playing sessions effortless and rewarding.

Signature 635JM Pickups: Vintage Tone, Modern Versatility

Loaded with a trio of John Mayer’s custom-voiced 635JM pickups, the Wild Blue Silver Sky delivers warm, singing single-coil tones with a musical high end that never feels harsh or “ice-picky.” The five-way blade switch, combined with one volume and two tone controls, allows precise shaping of the guitar’s dynamic response—whether dialing in delicate cleans, transparent midrange crunch or full-bodied overdrive. Wired in a classic SSS configuration, these pickups capture the vintage single-coil character while providing the versatility and responsiveness demanded by today’s players.

Gen III Steel Tremolo and Vintage-Style Locking Tuners for Stage-Ready Performance

Equipped with a PRS steel tremolo, the Wild Blue Silver Sky features Gen III knife-edge screws and a refined arm design for fluid pitch modulation and rock-solid stability. Vintage-style locking tuners mirror that precision, offering the classic aesthetic of a 1960s machine with the slip-free reliability of a modern workhorse. A hand-carved bone nut completes the assembly, ensuring maximum resonance and natural sustain across every string. From the bridge to the headstock, every component is engineered to provide a smooth, flawless experience whether you’re tracking in the studio or performing on stage.

A Striking Continuation of the PRS x Mayer Legacy

This limited-edition PRS Silver Sky is more than a milestone in the John Mayer legacy—it’s a masterclass in balance. By marrying the storied Wild Blue finish with a refined, Mayer-inspired build, it offers a playing experience that feels both historic and ahead of its time. Whether you’re drawn to its collector-grade exclusivity or its undeniable workhorse reliability, the Wild Blue stands as a testament to what happens when iconic design is refined for the modern stage. With only 1,000 instruments available worldwide, it’s a rare opportunity to own a piece of the Silver Sky story that commands the stage in both presence and performance.
