The Silver Sky Satin is the satin-finish version of the PRS Silver Sky, the guitar John Mayer and Paul Reed Smith developed together. It keeps the alder body, the three 635JM single coils and the bolt-on maple neck, finished in satin nitro and offered in its own colours.
The playing details match the gloss model. A 7.25" radius board with Small Birds sits on a 25.5" scale, and a 5-way blade works with one volume and two tones. PRS mounts the steel tremolo flush on the body so it only lowers pitch, giving the bridge more contact with the wood. Locking vintage-style tuners and a bone nut complete it.
Choose between this and the gloss Silver Sky on sheen and colour. Satin has a lower lustre than gloss, and Moc Sand, Faded Black Tee, Mojave Brown and Black Plum appear only here. Our pick is Mojave Brown, the warmest-looking of the four. For a humbucker at the bridge in the same finish, see the Fiore Satin.
The Fingerboard option works as it does on the gloss guitar. Rosewood brings the 635JM-R neck, rounded slightly in the shoulders, and maple brings the original 635JM, a touch slimmer at the first fret (27/32" against 55/64").
