PRS SE Silver Sky Defender Limited Edition Petra Copper

PRS SE Silver Sky Petra Copper: limited edition single-coil guitar

You don't see a Silver Sky in Petra Copper every day. This Defender Limited Edition is a limited run of the SE Silver Sky, the model that John Mayer developed together with Paul Reed Smith and which has now earned its own place among the classics. The warm copper color, combined with the rosewood fretboard and the renowned bird inlays, makes it an instant head-turner, but above all, it is a guitar that you'll want to pick up off the wall and never put down. For those looking for their first serious electric guitar, or moving up from an entry-level model, this is a wonderful starting point.

The sound is classic and clear. The three single-coils deliver that typical crystal-clear attack with plenty of definition, from sparkling clean in the neck position to those sharp, nasal in-between settings that funk and blues thrive on. If you dial in some overdrive, the guitar continues to sound nicely open without becoming muddy. The playing experience is smooth: the 635 JM neck profile feels comfortable and substantial in the hand, and with the 8.5-inch radius, both chords and bends feel great under the fingers.

Technically, everything is in its right place. The body is made of poplar, the neck of maple with a rosewood fretboard featuring 22 frets and bird inlays. The three 635 JM "S" single-coil pickups are controlled via a volume knob and two tone controls, allowing you to switch quickly between sharp and warm. The scale length is 25.5 inches, the bridge is a 2-point steel tremolo for stable vibrato, and the vintage-style tuners hold tuning reliably. The guitar comes with a gig bag, so you can take it straight to lessons or rehearsal.

This Limited Edition will be available starting late November to early December and is available for pre-order now. Visit our store or call us for more information about the PRS SE Silver Sky Defender Limited Edition Petra Copper.
