The SE Silver Sky Defender Limited Edition keeps the feel, response, and playability that define the Silver Sky, then introduces a bold new visual character. For the Defender Color Collection, John Mayer and PRS looked beyond the guitar world to the contemporary Defender palette — decades of history and more than 900 colors — and selected four finishes for the SE Silver Sky: Petra Copper, Sedona Red, Carpathian Grey, and Woolstone Green.

Each color is paired with a black pickguard, a first for the Silver Sky model. A custom neck plate unique to the run and a custom gig bag complete the package.

Underneath, this is still very much a player's guitar. The poplar solidbody and bolt-on multi-ply maple neck carry a rosewood fretboard with an 8.5" radius, small bird inlays, and 22 PRS SE medium frets on a 25.5" scale. Three PRS 635JM "S" single-coils, voiced to PRS's own specification, deliver full, warm vintage-inspired tone with a musical high end that never gets ice-picky, and the PRS 2-point steel tremolo with vintage-style closed-back tuners keeps tuning solid night after night.

"Teaming up with Defender to offer the Silver Sky guitar in their legendary Defender colors is a dream come true," says John Mayer. "I've always chosen colorways based on objects and materials that inspire me in the world, and as a collector and lover of Defenders, this collaboration is the perfect crossover between two great passions of mine."

A Look You Won't See Twice

Four Defender finishes — Petra Copper, Sedona Red, Carpathian Grey, and Woolstone Green — were pulled from a palette of more than 900 colors, each paired with a black pickguard for the first time on a Silver Sky. With a custom neck plate unique to the run, it's a limited edition that stands apart on any stage.

Still A Player's Guitar

The Defender edition retains the sound, feel, and response musicians expect from the Silver Sky, backed by build quality and playability made to handle night after night on stage. The finish is new; the working instrument underneath isn't.

Stays In Tune

The PRS 2-point steel tremolo gives you comfortable vibrato with exceptional tuning stability, and the vintage-style closed-back tuners are engineered to promote resonance. Dive in and come back where you started.
