    Pattern neck carve that's closest to the Silver Sky's

    Hi guys, New member of the forum here! I have decided to buy a PRS guitar, and I was looking for some advice from people that have played different models. A little bit of background - a few months ago I managed to try a maple Silver Sky, and the moment I touched the guitar I felt in love...

    PRS Silver Sky Maple neck - Why JM don't use it on live? Or I'm wrong

    Hi everyone I'm writting from Spain. I have 2 PRS SS, one from 2018 in Horizon Red with rosewood fretboard. Other from 2021 Moc Sand Satin with maple fretboard. In my opinion with the two guitars, I like more the rosewood. In terms os sound is almost the same, but little better for me the...

    Silver Sky, Cleaning Mold

    Hello Everyone, After working on my Silver Sky this weekend, I discovered a lot of mold under the volume knob. We had a gig this past summer that was humid and misting, never thought to clean under the volume knob - but I'm sure this is when it happened. Anyway, I pitched the volume knob...

    Silver Sky SE Quality Issues

    Ok, maybe I'm just unlucky. Or maybe not. For what its worth, Vaughn Skow posted the following on his blog: A TECHS HONEST REVIEW OF A PRS SILVER SKY SE (I don't think I can post a link yet as this might be only my second post here). My story: I ordered a "brand new" Silver Sky SE from a...

    Silver Sky with a Brass Nut?

    Hello All, I am very close to pulling the trigger on a PRS Silver Sky John Mayer Signature. One upgrade I'm already planning on making, is switching out the factory nut with a brass one (Jerry Garcia had brass nuts on most if not all of his guitars) . I did this to my Mexican Strat and I...

    Colors in the Sky (feat. lots of HDRX)

    My latest project - it was a beautiful fall here in West Michigan, the colors were fantastic and I worked hard to capture them as often as I could. The weather was not the best and limited my flying at times, but the colors held on long enough that I still got many nice flights. Here's the...

    Silver Sky neck on a Fiore body?

    I’d love to know your thoughts on if it’s possible to put a SS neck on a Fiore body, and if so, would you want to?! I’m aware of all the reasons why the Fiore neck is designed the way it is and yes it’s a beautiful neck as is, no complaints there.

    Changed String Brand, Now They Catch on the Nut When Using the Tremolo Arm

    Hey Everyone, I bought a Silver Sky SE and finally changed the strings recently to NYXL 10-46. Now, when I use the tremolo arm, the strings catch (in the nut slots) and some jump wildy out of tune. Is this normal? I'd rather not drive to get the nut slots recut. Debating buying the PRS strings...

    PRS 635JM vs 635JM “S” - Specs and Resonance Curve

    It felt incredibly wrong cutting my own USA Silver Sky’s pickup out to do this, but hopefully it will provide some value to everyone! I posted these images to my instagram account, which is why they have the "swipe" icon. Hopefully the images come up - if not, here's a data table with the...

    Almost sold my Silver Sky…until I dialed in this tone

    I almost had to sell the silver sky but thanks to a random escrow refund it gets to stay! I was fighting the action a bit the past week, but finally dialed it in to a point where I can hang on notes like I’m used to.

    Silver Sky Chip

    So I’ve had a silver sky in moc sand satin for about 4 months, and last night I noticed a small chip right next to the top strap button. It’s an odd place for anything to have bumped it especially since my strap stays on the guitar 90% of the time. Also I would think the strap should have...

    PRS Silver Sky SE Volume Roll Off Issue/Concern

    First time poster - long time PRS player. I recently purchased an SE Silver Sky as a backup/B-Guitar, but honestly I'm so blown away in it's closeness to my USA Silver Sky that I'm going to end up keeping it longer than expected - the lightweight poplar and Moon White color doesn't hurt...

    Traditional PRS Body w/single coils?

    Hey all, hope you’re well, As great as the Silver Sky is, does anyone wish PRS would continue manufacturing the 305? I know the 509 is available but personally I’d love a 305 with a 25” scale length (instead of 25.5”) and core maple tops.

    Silver Sky Changes

    I've read that the Silver Sky underwent a few changes after the first couple years of production, such as neck shape and pickup modifications. When did the changes take place? In 2020 or 2021? I'm looking at buying a 2020 midnight rose model, and I'm wondering which version it is. Thanks!

    Silver Sky static through amp.

    Hi I recently purchased a new Silver Sky and I love everything about it. However, I noticed that when I run my hand along the body and neck of the guitar it causes a loud static that persist until I stop touching it. I tested my other guitars too try to replicate this issue but the Silver Sky is...

    Double NGD for me!

    So this NGD is a double dip for me on the S2 594, which I stupidly sold a couple of months ago. Happy to have it back and won't be making that mistake again (until I get the core:)). The Silver Sky on the other hand is something I wasn't even sure I was gonna dig as I only really liked one...

    What species of rosewood does Silver Sky use?

    I'm about to get a new guitar, but I'm not sure if I want a maple or a rosewood fretboard. I have way more experience with maple than I do with rosewood, cause I've only ever owned one rosewood guitar, and didn't put much thought into the feel of it before it was gone. I guess I'm leaning more...
