PRS SE Silver Sky - 8J - Storm Grey

Perform with Mayer’s Classic Tone

This model features a trio of 635JM "S" pickups, custom-designed to capture the iconic essence of vintage 1960s guitars. Developed in collaboration with John Mayer himself, these pickups deliver full-bodied, bell-like chimes and overdriven tones that are perfect for blues. The staggered pole pieces ensure balanced output across all three pickups, allowing you to create rich, layered sounds that will captivate any audience.

The tonal qualities of these pickups are truly outstanding, offering warmth and clarity that are hard to match. Their single-coil design delivers dynamic, articulate harmonics, with notes that sing and sustain beautifully. Whether you’re playing "Free Fallin’," "Love on the Weekend," or any other John Mayer classic, the 635JM "S" pickups provide a richness and depth that stands out. They’re your gateway to achieving a professional, vintage-inspired tone.

Playability Fit for a Wonderland

Crafted with the guitarist in mind, the John Mayer Silver Sky features thoughtful design elements to ensure exceptional playability. The 635JM neck carve and an 8.5-inch radius make it comfortable and effortless to navigate the fretboard, providing superior control. This is especially valuable for complex chord progressions or intricate riffs requiring precise finger movement.

Additionally, the double-acting truss rod and synthetic bone nut ensure perfect intonation across all 22 frets, delivering consistent sound regardless of where you are on the neck. The two-point steel tremolo system facilitates smooth, effortless vibrato, while the vintage-style tuners keep your strings perfectly in tune even after extended play. Together, these features create a guitar that is not only visually stunning but also highly functional and easy to play.
