This 2026 Paul Reed Smith Silver Sky in Wild Blue is part of a limited-edition run of John Mayer's signature PRS, and it's the color that makes it: a deep, saturated blue sprayed in satin nitro over an alder body, carried all the way up to a matching Wild Blue reverse headstock for a top-to-bottom finish treatment PRS reserves for its special colorways. Weighing a comfortable 7.1 lbs., this one is collector owned, in mint condition, and shows no wear at all. The Silver Sky itself came out of a multi-year collaboration between Mayer and Paul Reed Smith, who studied 1963 and 1964 single-coil instruments in depth and rebuilt the concept from the ground up — an old-guitar feel and warmth executed with modern precision, right down to the 3-ply white pickguard, nickel hardware, molded metal jack plate curved for easy cable changes, and redesigned control knobs.
The bolt-on maple neck is carved to the 635JM profile (27/32" at the 1/2 fret, 31/32" at the 12 1/2 fret) under a fast semi-gloss nitro finish, with a rosewood fretboard, small bird inlays, and the vintage-accurate 7.25" radius that gives the Silver Sky its distinctly broken-in feel. Twenty-two tall/narrow frets, a 25.5" scale, and a 1 21/32" bone nut round out the playing surface, while PRS's double-action truss rod adjusts right from the front of the headstock — no neck removal required. That reversed headstock isn't just a look: it keeps the string length behind the nut consistent and suits Mayer's playing style, and paired with vintage-style closed-back locking tuners and PRS's steel tremolo with bent saddles set flush to the body for downward-only travel, the guitar stays in tune and rings louder acoustically, which sharpens the signal-to-noise ratio of the single-coils.
Those single-coils are PRS's 635JM set — neck, middle (reverse polarity for hum-cancelling in positions two and four), and bridge — voiced round and full with a high end that stays musical instead of turning brittle or ice-picky. Run through a volume, two tones, and a 5-way blade selector, it covers the entire vocabulary vintage single-coil players live in: bell-clear neck tones, glassy in-between quack, and a bridge that bites without shredding your ears. Whether you're a blues or pop-rock player chasing that unmistakable Mayer tone, a session and studio pro who needs a reliable S-style workhorse, or a collector after a limited Wild Blue example in untouched condition, this one delivers. This PRS Silver Sky Wild Blue Limited Edition (Serial #0424854) includes its original PRS Premium gig bag.
