Watchtower Guitars and our partnership with Paul Reed Smith Guitars is growing to new levels this year. We have one of the best selections of Core, Bolt On, S2 and SE models in the tri-state area. All of these guitars are available to be tested at our new PRS showroom in Morristown NJ. Please contact us to make an appointment. Working with us at Watchtower Guitars is a full tone experience not just a transaction.
The new PRS Silver Sky has made a striking impression in the shop, offering an impressive sound and playability that rivals even vintage Fender Stratocasters. Coming in at a weight of 7lbs 2oz, this guitar is a standout instrument that excels in both tone and performance. Designed as a collaboration between Grammy Award-winning musician John Mayer and Paul Reed Smith, the Silver Sky embodies a blend of vintage charm and modern innovation. The guitar ships in a PRS Premium gig bag, guaranteeing secure transport and protection.
John Mayer's vision for the Silver Sky was to encapsulate favorite vintage specifications with a contemporary spirit and aesthetic. The guitar features unique elements such as an inverted headstock shape to accommodate Mayer's playing style and maintain tuning stability, vintage-style tuners with PRS's locking design, and a steel tremolo system with Gen III knife-edge screws for enhanced acoustics and signal-to-noise ratio. The 635JM single-coil pickups provide a round and full sound with a musical high end that avoids harshness.
Offered with a choice of rosewood or maple fretboard, each with distinct characteristics designed for comfort and playability, the Silver Sky ensures a personalized playing experience. Additional high-quality components include a bone nut, a molded metal jack plate for convenient cable connection, retooled knobs, and a double-action truss rod accessible from the front of the headstock. The PRS premium gig bag adds practicality and protection to complete this exceptional package, making the PRS Silver Sky an ideal choice for players seeking a versatile and high-performance guitar.
