To be honest. it's just a color. It's like folks losing their minds over limited edition colors on pedals.

Yes I agree, I have seen them listed double and triple the price on ebay, but I doubt anyone is paying those prices..
Like I mentioned, I was already in the market for one of these guitars and was originally trying to buy the Tungsten color.
I just got excited when I thought I had the Nebula model, and I do like the color.

Except it’s an expensive paint. I’ve been told PRS isn’t going to offer more production nebulas than this limited run because of the expense.

Gotcha. I'm sure that factor does drive the price. My point was simply if you're not absolutely hung up on having the nebula finish, save yourself the time, money and grief and grab one in another finish. They're all great colors.

Yeah, but with nebula, if you don’t like the color one day, just flip it around, and play it left-handed.

So basically it’s worth two regular Silver Sky.Yeah, but with nebula, if you don’t like the color one day, just flip it around, and play it left-handed.

Even regular SS are tough to find at times. It’s true Nebula is just a color, I like the tungsten with rosewood board the best, which is what I bought. I got lucky as a brand new one was for sale at a local music store.
Nebula is definitely cool though, gonna have work hard for that one to get it. For me however, the feel and sound of a guitar is more important.

That sucks. It's also weird because I thought all 500 had been spoken for already. Meaning the dealers had enough pre-orders to sell them all. Maybe someone changed their mind. Still, happy hunting!

Don't mean to post this in poor taste, given the story above, but I picked up my Nebula today! It is absolutely stunning in person. Unfortunately, my guitar hanger is in an area without a lot of natural light, so I don't get to see all the colours in it's resting spot. Maybe I'll have to buy a spotlight for it!
Played it a bit - sounds great. Though I think this one will likely hang on the wall more than anything... just too pretty to use!

Thanks for posting it!Gorgeous! Congrats!
Yea, it's absolutely stunning. I LOVE my dodgem blue, definitely my favourite of the (at the time) available colours. Unfortunately it looks a bit muted next to the Nebula now!
Though it was my first child, and i'll always love her.
Congrats, I'd put that beauty on a slowly rotating disc under a spotlight and enjoy it's chameleon like effect all the time.Don't mean to post this in poor taste, given the story above, but I picked up my Nebula today!

It's here...!
My first glimpse on opening the bag was sky blue, which was a surprise. This color is amazing: the deep blues and purples we've all seen, some bright green flash, gold, orange, and even a nasty snotty bile green if you look across the body at a low angle. My wife calls it the "Autopia guitar," and yup, it's got pretty much all those colors.
In terms of playability and sustain/resonance across all the strings, this has got my genuine "F" guitar cowering in the corner. The 635JM pickups sounded pretty, well, dainty to me compared to the Fralin Blues Specials I'm used to. After eyeballing those for a moment or two, I raised the PRS pickups one full turn of the screwdriver. Much better! That gave it some of the asthmatic growl and punch it had been missing. I really like the way this guitar responds when played hard and loud.
Also, this glossy flashy paint is a lint magnet! But enough with the words already...
