PRS SE Silver Sky - Dandy Lion  

When John Mayer and Paul Reed Smith collaborated to create the Silver Sky, they aimed to capture the magic of the "golden era" single-coil guitars of 1963 and 1964. The SE Silver Sky in the striking Dandy Lion finish brings that boutique, vintage-inspired soul to a bold, modern aesthetic. Built with a lightweight poplar body and a trio of 635JM "S" pickups, this guitar produces a warm, round low end and a musical high-end chime that never gets harsh. Whether you're channeling Mayer’s smooth blues licks or looking for a reliable workhorse that can handle any stage, this guitar offers a level of playability and tonal consistency that is rare in its class.

The "Dandy Lion" finish is a vibrant nod to traditional American fashion hues, offering a standout look that matches the guitar's energetic voice. It features the signature 635JM neck shape and an 8.5” fretboard radius, providing a comfortable, broken-in feel right out of the gig bag. With its inverted headstock for improved tuning stability and the iconic PRS bird inlays, the SE Silver Sky honors the legacy of legendary players while providing modern refinements for today's musicians. From its glassy cleans to its touch-sensitive overdrive, this is an instrument designed to inspire every time you plug it in.
