Love everything about Silver Sky, except the headstock

Headstocks have never bothered me except when they are too big or too small. The Tele headstock to me looks like a limo di*k.
My Knaggs headstock is about 2” too long which is also a pain to fit into a gig bag.

In my opinion, if you are looking at something innovative, look at it in a different perspective. I couldn't take it at first, then it made sense to me. If it had the same inline headstock, then it would be another stray copy.

Yeah but check out that straight string through the nut action.

No sarcasm intended, but I have never understood people’s problems with headstock shapes. I’ve been he@ring people piss and moan about Heritage headstocks since they started making them. I mean, ther’s headstock shapes I dont care for, but nothing that would keep me from buying the guitar if I really liked it.

I think John did an awesome job deciding to do it reversed. IMO the Fiore looks goofy. I totally agree with John. The two pointy angles of a regular PRS headstock and the shape of the guitar would make it look odd. I love it. It looks awesome IMO while holding it too. I don't know why people can get over that. Moreover, the people that hate it. Do you think they should have done the normal shape and extended for 6 all on the top like they did with the Dan Spitz model? Now that looks dumb. If you don't like it, buy a Fender while these are better in a lot of ways.

I Wish The "Reverse" Headstock Was An Option On All The PRS Guitars. I Would Get It Without Hesitation.

I Am Sure The OP Could Buy The Guitar And Get Creative With A Saw And Sander And Come Up With A Design That Is More Appealing. Transform it Into A Snake Head...Santana...Original PRS Shape But Smaller...You Could Do Most Anything. It Would Be A True One Of A Kind And Worth A Fortune. Do It!

They really should make that an option.

It’s not a “reverse” headstock. It’s a totally different design. Although I do think a reversed Silver Sky headstock would look fantastic on the Vela and NF53.
