PRS Silver Sky Electric Guitar - Roxy Pink with Rosewood Fingerboard Reviews
The PRS Silver Sky was designed by Paul Reed Smith and built to John Mayer's specifications. This vintage-inspired guitar boasts a familiar shape with an eye-catching contrasting tone in its cutaway scoop. Its neck carve, scale length, and fingerboard radius were modeled after John's early-'60s instruments; however, a modified PRS-style headstock and locking tuners propel it firmly into the twenty-first century. Park this axe in front of any tube amp, and its sweet-sounding single-coil pickups will churn out glassy, musical tones with excellent note definition. Beyond that, the Silver Sky includes a bone nut, molded metal jack plate, retooled knobs, custom fret-wire, and PRS's double-action truss rod.

The Best Guitar I have Ever Played!!!
The PRS Silver Sky Rosewood in Roxy Pink is the Best Guitar I have ever played. Compared to my Fender American Ultra Stratocaster HSS Rosewood the PRS Silver Sky wins hands down. There is no lost energy when playing this guitar. The action was perfect when I received it and Frets were perfect. This guitar just makes me want to play it clean. You will not regret buying this American made guitar. I would like to thank my Sales Engineer Zack Davidson for being patient with my questions and for being very knowledgeable on this guitar. I couldn't ask for better service!!!
Perfect strat
Selling my vintage strat bc this is perfect
1, 2, 3 :-)
I bought one of these in Tungsten when they first came out, but bought it as a curiosity. I didn't think I would use it all that much. I have 3 other PRS guitars that I adore, and I am not that much of a Fender fan, generally speaking, so figured the Silver Sky wouldn't really speak to me. I was so wrong. I had a three month period where the Silver Sky was ALL I wanted to play. It feels great. It sounds great. It is like a very high quality Fender Strat with better tone. I bought an SE version just for the color, and it isn't too bad, either. Not quite the pleasure to play, but I take it in situations where I'm not comfortable having a more expensive guitar, and it works just fine. The Roxy Pink I also bought just because I couldn't resist the color, and it turned out to be the best of the three. I don't know if they have tweaked the original design, or if this one just has that accidental X factor, but I have a hard time keeping this one out of my hands. Something I expected to be just a nice club to have in the bag has turned out to be a go to guitar. Absolutely fabulous. In my opinion, Paul Reed Smith is doing making THE best guitars, right now. Amazing stuff.
Just Wow!
I'll start this by saying I have had a number of guitars over the years but always seemed to reach for my strat over and over again. I figured I would give this a try as I have always had an appreciation for PRS and this guitar has always intrigued me as it seems to fix some of the issues i have had with strats. Let me just say holy cow this is a nice guitar. The neck is a little thicker than a modern strat, which honestly has a perfect feel for me. One thing that I noticed right away, that i haven't seen others talk about, is the access to the upper frets. Wow, what difference it is to not fight the guitar when playing the higher notes, this is life changing. The pick-ups on this lack a little high end in my honest opinion, but clean they sound incredible. Huge shout out to Tom for helping me. He has helped me with multiple purchases and has never steered me wrong.
Fantastic. Tone, playability, fit&finish...all outstanding.
I'm a Strat guy. I always have been. I'm also a single-coil guy. I've had humbucker guitars, but I tend to always trade them away. As it is, I have 3 Strats right now at home, including a 1999 American Standard (which also has a 7.25" radius neck). But this just blows them all away. The neck feel is perfect for me. Slightly smaller than a '64 Strat, slightly bigger than a modern Strat. But it feels good. The pickups are out of this world. I used to spend hours in a music store trying each Strat and Strat-like instrument looking for a good tone. It's been hit or miss. But not on this Silver Sky. It was magical going into my Deluxe Reverb right away. Came out of the box perfectly set-up too. I have to admit when these were announced I was skeptical. But WOW was I wrong. Plus my Sweetwater sales engineer, Jacob, helped me out all along the way. Outstanding service.
