    The "Official Silver Sky" Thread

    Good find! I’m tempted to sell my 2018 and just get an SE because I know whenever they announce the new colors I’ll want one.

    The "Official Silver Sky" Thread

    I must admit of all the ones that I’ve played, US and SE, I liked the SE neck the best and the pickups the best. I had an SE and told myself it want good enough because it wasn’t American made but I’m probably going to get another. I can’t believe how good the SE is. It broke my “I won’t buy an...

    The "Official Silver Sky" Thread

    NGD Picked up a mint 2018 SS frost in a trade. Gentleman was super nice and had an amazing story. He was a more traditional strat kinda guy and had toured with some fairly big acts in the 80s. This is the first 2018 I’ve had and I can definitely hear a difference in the pickups compared to the...

    I agree. I got a moon white that is my number 1. If someone told me I’d be happily playing an SE (nothing against them) more than a core I wouldn’t have believed it. The neck is amazing. Pickups are amazing.

    The maple has a saying finish on the back so it did feel “smoother/faster”, but the rosewood was by no means sticky feeling. Tonally I would say they are very similar. I did play all of them through the same rig and they ALL were extremely consistent from one to the next. On another level.

    The "Official Silver Sky" Thread

    I have had 10 different ones through some crazy trading and selling and aside from individual weight of the instruments, they are the most consistent guitars I’ve ever played. The caveat being that the maple board necks have slightly more shoulder so if you want variation, I would do one maple...

    Anyone tried the SE and preferred it over the core for any reason?

    Look what came in today….. Not 100% I will keep it. Seeing how I feel about the color in person. It is hard to photograph but this photo catches what it looks like fairly well. May wait and see what NAMM brings next month!

    I have the option to get either a polar blue with maple, Orion green with maple, a roxy pink, or……wait for NAMM. I am torn now lol.

    New core Silver Sky color ? Or a one-off for Mayer ?

    Any word on if this will become a core color?

    Possibly. So disappointed! I have to wait until the guitar is back with the store before I can purchase another one. I’m sure it will be a week or so more. I’ve held a few Silver Sky’s and haven’t seen a finish crack yet but I know it can happen. I’ll probably go with whatever color they get in...

    So. Incredibly. Disappointed. Received the Silver Sky today and has a nice big finish crack at the neck pocket. This one was made a month ago and might be ok for someone else to look past but I can’t on a guitar this expensive. Setting up a return.

    Ordered a midnight rose with rosewood board today. Got a great deal and couldn’t pass it up. Supposed to be here Thursday.

    I thought about that! I wasn’t sure if that was a third party refinish or a real PRS job.

    Will we see new colors at NAMM? I see the Golden Mesa and Orion Green have been discontinued. Seems like we may get a matte black and maybe something else. Wish I knew when to expect the announcement as I’m on the fence about picking one up before then.
