He makes it look so damn easy!
Thanks @Shawn@PRS !Dealers will start shipping guitars to end users on March 20th
Serial numbers are sequential.
Ah sh!t. Guess I'll turn in my 'serious collector' card.
Really? Where?
Completely. Totally. Embarrassingly. Incorrect.
Drank a little extra Kool Aid before signing on? Your entire post is a bit rich, even for die-hard fanboys like me.

I love when strat users feel the need to explain away 60 cycle hum..."like someone breathing" hits the nail on the head!! It's just what single coils do...although ya gotta love 2 and 4.
Not to continue the case madness...but maybe I can help end it.
My understanding is that any hardshell cases that may be available from PRS that fit the Silver Sky after the first 500 will not have the Silver Sky badge. Just regular black tolex, no badge.
@Shawn@PRS am I right on this one?
I'm very very very surprised that Mayer opted to keep the hum in the guitar design. I watched his entire instagram post (very good, actually) and he stated he wanted to make a modern take on a classic design. Yet, keeps the hum. Ironic.
Damn he can play!Very interesting video,guitar sounds great.Fender took the strat to the future with the Strat plus model in the late 80s.This guitar is much more traditional imo but with some cool little tweaks.
Many have tried to keep single coil tone while eliminating the hum...to no avail...that I'm aware of, anyway...

I suppose that's true.
I've decided I'll grab one of these at some point. I might wait until the inevitable maple boarded version, but I'm now convinced. I can get used to the shorter frets, or have it re-fretted with larger SS.
The instagram video was great!!! Its also great to have someone like him and his stature to defend the brand.
The other PRS, where only 220 (and a few personal ones for John) are/were available
This is the closest meme fun I could find to describe what I think JonW meantI don’t get it. This one’s going over my dense head.
One of these action figures should have come with each guitar.This is the closest meme fun I could find to describe what I think JonW meant

I agree - if you want the tone of a single coil, you need the hum. It works as part of the tone, as far as I am concerned. While not a fan of the Strat, I love Esquires, Duo Sonics/Mustangs and plenty of other single coil loaded guitars. I am a regular user of Dynasonic equipped Gretsch guitars. Single coils just have a tone that can' be beat - if you want the tone, the hum is there. Good for Mayer and PRS for keeping it!!
