PRS Silver Sky John Mayer Signature | Reverb

Paul Reed Smith and John Mayer collaborated on Silver Sky Signature, aiming to bring to market a modern, idealized version of a vintage single-coil guitar. Mayer and PRS were inspired by and tried to include their favorite elements from vintage instruments released in 1963 and 1964, like neck sha...

That's pretty cool. I bet the production versions sound just as good or even better.

 

[Rider1260]

Wow that's pretty rare air for that , I mean you could likely get a 58 Strat for that or even a 62 or 63 for sure.
I love the Silver Sky but ??

So it's the prototype Silver Sky, previously owned by Santana and now it's in the Netherlands? How'd it get there?

I'm not a huge JM fan and Santana isn't known for Strats and clearly didn't keep it for long so the history doesn't do much for me. I'd rather have a new one and $81,000

 

[Tonart]

The decimal point is slightly too far to the right.

 

[Iceman101]

It's been for sale for some time now, fortunately no shipping costs . Although I could drive up there in one hour approx. But I may pass on this one

 

[The Bird]

Does it come with a gigbag?

Ditto!

 

[Coral Sky Music]

If they;d round it down and take the 66 cents off I might consider it

 

[Alnus Rubra]

Ok what’s going on here? Yesterday it was for sale from USA store, or is this another one?

Good question!

 

[Alnus Rubra]

And last week it was in Holland. So does the price include the airfare each time?

The US was invaded by Canada this morning. We ignored the warning signs.

At that price it better come with a guitar tech to take care of it for you.

It supposedly comes with a authorization letter from Paul. Is the consensus this is legit?

I think there is a consensus that its a legitimately crazy asking price.

I don’t doubt that there is a letter from Paul, or that it really is a prototype, or that Carlos owned it.
I doubt if Carlos played it much, or that anyone will pay the asking price.

 

[AaeCee]

And what's with that effed up photo of the front? Is it the guitar, or just a ridiculously terrible picture?

If it's the guitar, I would rather just have a fresh new one for $80K+ less. If it's the picture, the dolt who displayed that needs to be flogged!

This morning? They’ve been taking all our great jobs and women for decades.

This morning? They’ve been taking all our great jobs and women for decades.

But let's be honest - they've been supplying some fabulous women for decades, too. Shannon Tweed (and her sister Tracy, at least back in the day), Natasha Henstridge, Pam Anderson, Rachelle Lefevre, Malin Akerman, Avril Lavigne, Carrie-Ann Moss, Cobie Smulders, Sarah Chalke, Mia Kirshner. Not all to my tastes, but that's a pretty good exchange rate.
