Hi guys, I’ve been emailing PRS recently about a left handed version of the Silver Sky model being made and I was hoping of you see this you could just give it a like as they have said they will make it if enough people show interest, then I would be able to send them the proof which would contributing to them making one
Fariz Shakir I get that folks were mad that it’s basically a suped up Strat, but that was before they realized it’s one of if not the best “Strat” on the market
@@tnoon-3230 the funny thing is if Hendrix was alive today and happened to play a righty Silver Sky upside down Paul would probably offer a "backwards" Silver Sky so righties could stand in front of the mirror and pretend to be him! 🎸 oh! And while I'm at it you should throw away your digital tuner.... Jimi got by without one.... so can you😉
whats not to like only reason ppl hatin was john didnt stay with fender .. and believe me im a fender guy through and through but id LOVE LOVE LOVE to own this guitar (orion green version maple board or if they have a spare NEBULA lol) as well as a custom 22 and a 24 beautiful guitars absolute "The tits" as they say
Huge Mayer fan, and this guitar looks and sounds like a dream! Though it's too far to reach, I'm gonna work my ass off and buy this guitar in this lifetime!
That guitar and amp were clearly made to be played together. Incredible sounding guitar. Also one of the best guitar demos out there for any company. Great demo of what the guitar can do and fantastic playing. Cheers folks.
Just bought one in gold today! Finally a dream come true! Can’t wait to pick it up tomorrow from the store! Set up new strings and play all day! What a masterpiece of a guitar ! The pickups are perfect and the resonance is unreal
Oh my god. That is so beautiful! It looks like the guitar version of a Salmon Dial Rolex Datejust. I hope PRS will make a T-type guitar in the near future.
I return to this often. Fun performances. Tasty playing. And I really love the look of this SS! There's also something about that little positioning adjustment, right around the 0:20 mark, that I rather enjoy. Sometimes the movements musicians make, in-between the phrasing, are just as much a part of the vibe as the notes they play. A little wiggle or shake of the instrument. A tiny reassessment of the volume or tone knob position. It's all a part of the performance.
Played a Silver Sky for the first time today, man what a revelation. I never understood maple boards, but that was the first maple board to really grab me.
Oh man....I would be all over a PRS tele style guitar. They have a few that do really great Strat sounds: 305, dc3 and now Silver Sky....but I have not played a PRS yet that can really cop that tele sound.
Yeah if they do a tele style I'm screwed...I'll buy 1 in every color! I did get lucky & preordered the new nebula color...turns out only 500 are being made in that finish 😎😎😎
@@bflo5210 I think you will really dig it. Like alot of folks, I was sceptical about a full on PRS strat.....until I played one. As you would expect, built super well, comfy to play and a killer set of pickups!
Mr. Smith, don't listen to detractors, you, John and the whole team did a really great job! I'm a long time Strat lover but I'm not a taliban, your Silver Sky is a piece of art!
Prs are the best guitars made today at ANY price point hands down. Brian is one of the Very best in the world….Smooth doesn’t do it justice, tasteful is a close as I can get.
Should definently try before you buy. Imo, if you close your eyes, it plays like a really nice strat, sounds like a strat. Is it worth the extra money over a American elite/Ultra... that's the hard part. I spend nearly an hour playing one that was used and selling for $2200 CAD which is great price but... couldnt see the value in it over a used American Ultra that was like... $1000 cheaper. Never the less, arguably the best non-custom shop Strat tyle guitar I've ever played.
This really has 5 usable positions. Usually, you set the strat for a favorite position, and go from there. With luck, 3 out of 5 will sound good. But this one... great job, indeed.
This is one my favorite guitars of all time (40+ years of guitar slinging). This said. I’d love to see a version with a flamed maple top. Some folks are sure to scream “No!!!!” at me for saying this, but many of the most iconic Strats weren’t done in solid colors. Of course, I plan on my existing Silver Sky being with me “forever”!
PRS craftmanship is absurdly good. I had the chance to try one of these silver sky and it just blew my mind. It is a matter of taste after all, but as far as I'm concerned I found it to be way better than any strat I could put my hands on. Keep the good work guys. My next 2,5k investment will be on this beauty.
That sounds amazing and i don't know why but i love that colour and maple neck combination. Only a casual Mayer fan but this guitar sounds fender custom shop quality.
Carl Verheyen (Supertramp and long-time recording pro) once said that the guitarists who play the more interesting things are often single coil players. (does playing a single coil tend to make you play more interesting things ? For my ears, often ...... yes.
@@rhykko77 look at some the greatest ...majority played most of their career on single coil.Roro Gallagher...Garry moore Jeff.beck clapton page ...his teles...Jimi hendrix...early chet atkins single coil Gretsch....Gilmour SRV...keith richards Prince on and on and on Carlos at woodstock...single coils....
I wouldn't just buy this because its a "signature" guitar, but rather because it just sounds so good for anything you throw at it. It really does sound 'HD' to my ears if that makes any sense lol. And its a perfect clean slate for creating any strat tone you want, without having any harshness from the start.
The wiring on the Silver Sky are different than the traditional Stratocaster. They have a 300k pot on the volume and took it to 275k using a resistor according to the Musicradar page. So maybe buying the pickups are not enough to achieve similar tone.

You could've learned guitar "the right way" 🤣
Seriously though, we all started at ground zero
@@ezer0923 It's harder for left-handed people tho.. some really need to use the left-handed guitar
Just go Jimi style!
@@211squirrel The headstock would then be the right way round for a prs 😁
Just learn the standard right way. Left handed but learned how to play righty.
2 years ago, nothing but hate in a Silver Sky's video comment section, and fast forward to 2020, nothing but love.. glad the internet warmed up!
Fariz Shakir I get that folks were mad that it’s basically a suped up Strat, but that was before they realized it’s one of if not the best “Strat” on the market
Really!! Nothing but love? I'm guessing you're not left handed
@@hughjarrse hendrix made it work. So can you 🤗

Man the sound on that guitar. Paul just made a masterpiece on those pickups.
The whole guitar is a masterpiece!!!

You can try mine
@@CorBor69 That's very kind of you, sir! However, I'm from Philippines. That's a very nice gesture, thank you sir. May God bless you more!
I feel you bro.
I'm from Thailand and the price is really steep comparing to our salary.
But we will get it one day!
@@eatdacrocodile1692 That's the spirit, my friend! With hardwork and persistence, it's possible. 👍
Melvin Manalo once you guys each get one trust me you won’t be disappointed. It’s so much fun to play!
That guitar and amp were clearly made to be played together. Incredible sounding guitar. Also one of the best guitar demos out there for any company. Great demo of what the guitar can do and fantastic playing. Cheers folks.
Want to sell a guitar? Hand it to this guy, and record and post it. Some of THE tastiest playing you'll ever hear. Bryan is the MAN!
I've never been a PRS guy, but this video really makes me want one of these.
love that color. WANT. also like the j birds.
Whenever I can buy it, I will. Awesome color. This is Awesome ❤
Man, Bryan, I thoroughly enjoy your demos and your playing. Cheers.
Must have this one in this color. Love it, thanks PAUL., again!
The Silver Sky was already on short list for guitars I want to own when I finally have enough. Now, with this guitar, it is THE guitar I want to own.
Hope you got one
That tone in the intro is just fantastic.
Please make an SE version of this guitar, i'd be interested
Just bought one in gold today! Finally a dream come true! Can’t wait to pick it up tomorrow from the store! Set up new strings and play all day! What a masterpiece of a guitar ! The pickups are perfect and the resonance is unreal
That color is phenomenal and that entire guitar looks cool and sounds amazing
Oh my god. That is so beautiful! It looks like the guitar version of a Salmon Dial Rolex Datejust. I hope PRS will make a T-type guitar in the near future.
Great playing! You really capture the right vibe for this guitar. 👏
Love the sound of this! Those pickups are really showcased here, thank you.

That color is sooooo amazing and I’ve been hoping for maple boards! Might just have to buy!
I just got a rosewood neck one but these are absolutely incredible. but GOD DAMN did i not realize how good Ewald's tone is on this!!
This looks so funky. My next S style guitar will be a Silver Sky for sure
Played a Silver Sky for the first time today, man what a revelation. I never understood maple boards, but that was the first maple board to really grab me.
Normally I don't fancy the country bridge, middle, or 4th position pick up, but all positions on this guitar sound pretty damn good.
DAMN !!!! Those pickups are pure gold. Nice work gentlemen.
Was literally just thinking about this yesterday, when will PRS make a maple neck SilverSky !
Great ! Now make a T-style guitar please 😉
Oh man....I would be all over a PRS tele style guitar. They have a few that do really great Strat sounds: 305, dc3 and now Silver Sky....but I have not played a PRS yet that can really cop that tele sound.

@@bflo5210 Ooo that is slick! Have you played the Silver Sky yet?
@@SluggerStark no I haven't I'm pretty sure I'll like it though... if not well then I guess I'll have a collector's item 😂😂
@@bflo5210 I think you will really dig it. Like alot of folks, I was sceptical about a full on PRS strat.....until I played one. As you would expect, built super well, comfy to play and a killer set of pickups!
Absolutely stunning looks and sounds...🤩
I love his slow double-stop stuff!!!!
Of course this silver sky sounds lovely, but daaaamn that amp is so insane!!
Costs 6000 thousand dollars it better be insane
Akın Meriç Arıkan what amp is it
Elijah Tarin PRS J-MOD 100
Omg... GAS! Thanks Paul!
Love the Silver Sky!!! Thanks for the great video, I think I need to order a Maple one
Once again Bryan, awesome sounds! I’m totally sold on the silver sky!! Thanks!!!
Winning lineup this year guys. Congrats 🥳
beautiful playing on a beautiful guitar
Mr. Smith, don't listen to detractors, you, John and the whole team did a really great job! I'm a long time Strat lover but I'm not a taliban, your Silver Sky is a piece of art!
The color is beautiful, sounds awsome
Oh wow now that's one sweet sounding guitar!!
John should of called that color Rosie 😉.
As a diehard PRS guy, thats not fair. Rosie exists, and is still loved. It would be cruel to her :P
I thought that's what he was going to say... nope. Midnight rose. Rosie would have been perfect.
Good idea!
You are a genius goose!
Can’t have two rosies lol
Rosie is already the name of his rosewood fender strat
Prs are the best guitars made today at ANY price point hands down. Brian is one of the Very best in the world….Smooth doesn’t do it justice, tasteful is a close as I can get.
everyone was gaga for the Nebula but that Midnight Rose has got me thinking about opening my check book.
I LOVE this color and really love the maple fingerboard option!
The Ultra series Strats are available in stores, these PRS strats are by order only. It would be nice to try before you buy!
Should definently try before you buy.
Imo, if you close your eyes, it plays like a really nice strat, sounds like a strat.
Is it worth the extra money over a American elite/Ultra... that's the hard part.

Never the less, arguably the best non-custom shop Strat tyle guitar I've ever played.
Outstanding demo. Great chops.
I prefer the maple for the SS. And I'm a rosewood guy.
I just saw an image of the "nabula" finish OMG I want it so bad! Guys never stop making that color!
Limited color
Very nice playing
Great playing and tone. Nice guitar too.
light pink is just a sexy color on a guitar. the grey tuners are a nice touch. And im coming around on the headstock
Absolutely gorgeous look and sound. Dialed in
Masterful outro jam.
Gorgeous look gorgeous tone!
Great guitar playing!
I want to buy one .. this is a masterpiece by prs and john mayer
This really has 5 usable positions. Usually, you set the strat for a favorite position, and go from there. With luck, 3 out of 5 will sound good. But this one... great job, indeed.
I agree
@Cool Story Bro you r right
Now PRS just needs to find a way to release a Silver Sky line in the $1000 range.
SE Silver Sky is the dream.
Honestly mannn
John Kravitz yeah it blow it out the door mate
It's happening
If they make an SE silver sky the American Ones Will go to $4,000.
Classy looking guitar.
You guys FINALLY listened to me!!
I commented on making this guitar with a maple fretboard a year ago lol
Love it
Yeah they did it for you specifically 😉 congrats
Man the sound on ghat guitar. Does pickups are just amazing.
Holy shit that rose color... so good.
really great sounding
This man is a master.
I'm in love with the color! I currently own a silver sky in rosewood frost :D def getting this one as well
This is one my favorite guitars of all time (40+ years of guitar slinging). This said. I’d love to see a version with a flamed maple top. Some folks are sure to scream “No!!!!” at me for saying this, but many of the most iconic Strats weren’t done in solid colors. Of course, I plan on my existing Silver Sky being with me “forever”!
Beautiful guitar and amazing S type sound.
Glorious sound
Would love to see the classic dramatically beautiful abalone birds on the rosewood version. Loving the hollow birds on the maple!
Awesome sound

Look much better than others silver sky
Yes! It does look beautiful.
Beautiful guitar !!
My dream guitar
Honestly these guitars are awesome.
That sounds amazing and i don't know why but i love that colour and maple neck combination. Only a casual Mayer fan but this guitar sounds fender custom shop quality.
Can you guys start putting amps and effects used in the description? Just because the tone in the videos always sounds so great!
He's using the J Mod amp
Damn he killed it on that intro
Something sounds different about the pickups... I like it
Just perfect!
Love this color!
We agree. It's surely a favorite here at the factory as well!
It's been 11 years since I got my first PRS. I think it's time to add a sibling!
Great tone on that intro
Freaking gorgeous guitar. Now I want one (especially with a maple board)
Man, Bryan is such a tasty player
mindblowing!
Seriously waiting for an se version
Bryan's playing is better on this than the other PRS models.
Carl Verheyen (Supertramp and long-time recording pro) once said that the guitarists who play
the more interesting things are often single coil players. (does playing a single coil tend to make

David Rothberg I totally agree. This is where he sounds the best to me.
David Rothberg fact!!
Beautiful
damn it i love that fretboard... i always like maple on fretboards
I wouldn't just buy this because its a "signature" guitar, but rather because it just sounds so good for anything you throw at it. It really does sound 'HD' to my ears if that makes any sense lol. And its a perfect clean slate for creating any strat tone you want, without having any harshness from the start.
I don’t currently own a PRS, but it’s a pretty safe bet that I’m gonna need one of these.
Damn!, the sound!
PRS should make those pickups available for the public. I would buy them even if I don’t have a Strat.
What I've been waiting for!
Sounds a lot better than my 2019 strat.
Newest question: When’s the ebony fretboard version come out?
yess, roasted maple neck and ebony fretboard would be the icing of the cake. that and maybe some satin colors
Holy shit thats a beautiful guitar!
I bought this same guitar last night. 😎
Congrats on the new guitar Dave!

Always hated maple. Played RW for 20 years. Tried the maple silver sky the other day. Best guitar I've ever played!! Buying it soon
Beeeeautiful!
So cool
