This was awesome and exactly why I have ordered the Silver Sky. The comment that "..out of 100 Strats you get 2 or 3 that are MAGIC" is exactly right. I ended up finding a Custom Shop Strat that I have played 1000's of shows on over the last 20 years after trying about 50 Strats. I have tried hundreds of Strats, Suhr's, PRS's etc to replace my now very aged and well worn Strat without success. Thank you JM & PRS. The perfect marriage of guitar mojo and luthier. Bring it on...

i walked into a guitar store in Ottawa and just started playing lots of different guitars and comparing them. i was down to a 1964 fender custom shop and the silver sky i loved the sound of both (I had no idea yours was even based on it ) the fender was $ 6500.00 ...... I left the shop with the silver sky and very, very happy with with it ! Thank you for such a great looking, sounding and playing guitar !!!!!

This guitar sounds AMAZING. I am used to playing custom shop fenders to get my fave strat sounds, but PRS makes the best factory guitars from a functional, structural, and setup standpoint, so I can trust that they knocked it out of the park with this one.

Like he said, they're not trying to reinvent the wheel, just futher it.

i think you and Paul did a great job with this guitar John. i'm a full time musician 28 plus years, on Decca records in the 90's, and own a great gibson R7 LP, a 335, 3 tele's and a whitfill tele... i say all that just to say, i think it's complete BS the way i see a lot of musicians mean, ignorant comments about the gtr. just about every guitar company, big or small has copied the basic designs of Strats, Tele's, LP's and 335's... anyhow Rant over, and again the guitar sounds great, and the look is growing on me, as i think it will a lot of other players in the future... rock on brother...

I'm pretty fuckin impressed about this conversation. It was clearly super honest.

He is such a true guitar player. He said when the frets are done right, it knocks out the radius issue. I personally play a 9 and 12" radius and I tried a silver sky at my local guitar center. I honestly think it was so easy to play on an adapt just because of the scale length, how well its set up and the glorius frets.

John is truly a classy guy. I'll try the guitar when I see it. His take on this whole thing is eminently fair.

I just want to say I’m very impressed with John he is a really down to earth guy especially at this point in his life, I really appreciate that, I remember when I first found Joe Bonamassa and I really liked him because he was down to earth too, now he seems completely self absorbed.. I follow John on Instagram super cool dude. Thanks for the video I missed the live stream

Thanks for doing this. Love the new guitar - already ordered mine. And, also bought the new Monterey Strat. As you said, additive to the guitar mix of options.

I don't know much about Mayer, but I have watched a lot of videos talking about people dissing this guitar. While it is not my style, it is obvious John put some heavy thought into this. I like the cut away and the head stock is nice. I'm not a fan of Fender at all, but this has enough to make it a totally different guitar. This video should shut down anyone still bitching that this is just a Fender copy. Lastly, while I knew he could play guitar, I now have the utmost respect for this guy. He is a monster player. Oh, and super cool of him for doing this video.

Wow! A middle pickup that sounds pretty good! That's actually something wonderful to my eyes.

John I love your new guitar by PRS. I wish it was a little more affordable but for the quality and what went into this guitar it's in the right range. Keep making awesome mayer inspired gear! Your the f--king man John!

Seriously. As far as I can tell, PRS is about making guitars the best way they can for every price point. Paul is super proud of their import models, and rightly so. The QC is great, enough to the point where I found an SE model that I preferred to a similar S2 model. I have bought Fender CS guitars that are double the price of this one, and the qc was not even close to the level that PRS has for their $1k range S2 models, and even the SE stuff. The way I look at it is this: I have to spend a LOT more time trying Fenders to find what I feel like is a really good one...while every single MD-made PRS that I've bought has been fantastic. Perfectly set up, perfect fret work, everything is right. Just my personal experience as someone who is extremely fussy about intonation, fretwork, etc. I love and own all kinds of guitars, but no matter what the price point, I personally feel that PRS gives you the best value for the money you spend since you know that a high level of care and attention to detail has gone into every guitar they send out. And to speak to Jonathan's point of Paul also being passionate about the players who use his gear: I bought a one-off PRS head that was modified by Paul and Doug, and had something go wrong with it, and when it went back to them for repair, Paul got wind of it and let me know that he personally made sure it got fixed properly, and that if I have any other issues with it, he is my amp tech. There's no reason he needs to spend time on anything like this other than the fact that he is really into making sure that they do everything the best way they possibly can. Google some search results on folks dealing with Gibson warranty service, it's a nightmare.

I must admit Mayer does an excellent job explaining the entire process of the development of this guitar. Especially when he says he could call PRS, himself, about creating this one. But I'm never going back to a bolt-on neck guitar, ever again.

To take his photography analogy, then try to take an inside picture of a room with a 200mm now... I'm pretty sure it won't work and you won't get the whole room, right? That's exactly how some people might feel about the 7"¼ radius. I fully understand it's for him, but saying it's irrelevant, it's just saying it's irrelevant to look at the size at all... like trying to say a 200mm will be good for EVERYTHING and EVERYONE. Hint: it does... and there's nothing to do about it, it's physics, just like a neck dimensions and shape. Using a "vintage" size is not what most people are looking for today... there's a reason why most manufacturers (including Fender) run away from 7"¼ and went with more modern and more comfortable radius later on (and now even compound C to D and 9"½ to 12"). It's all about modern comfort because most of people today want familiar look, vintage tones but with modern comfort.. A 7"¼ radius is like a 200mm lens. It might be great for some people and some usage, and yes we can even make portrait with (and a very nice bokeh when fully zoomed on the person), but it will surely not fit if you try to make interior pictures.

Phil Smith I think the point John was making us not too have the idea in your head that a 7.25 won't work just because that's what your told to think, but rather, try the guitar for yourself and if you don't like it, that's ok. But at least you made an educated choice at that point. I've played several guitars with the same exact neck radius and some felt great to play on while others were obnoxious to me. There's many different factors and the only way to really tell what works is to test it without a preconceived idea.

I am intrigued. Sign me up when one based off of the Tesla navy blue comes out!

very cool that's it the same colour as a Tesla. The truly remarkable thing is that his new guitar very much captures the spirit of the Fender stratocaster. The fender guitar, regardless what John plays, is in his current guitars DNA. For a guitar over 60 years old that is amazing amazing and speaks to the genius of Leo's original idea. Candy Apple Red Mustang or red Tesla - both very cool but if the strat was never painted in a car's colour he wouldn't be holding that shade of red. Very interesting how the evolution of the guitar is an extension of the original. Who was it that said the more things change the more they stay the same

John seems like a really chill dude to have a cold one with. I will definitly play the horizon colored model. 😍

I totally get your point👍 I may just purchase...

He smashed the nail on the head about the unusable treble on even the high end custom shop strats. I have the 1960th anniversary edition American strat and anything above 7-8 is almost painful to the ear. LOVE that idea of chopping some of those treble-some frequencies.

It's amazing how polarizing this guy is. The guitar community seems to love him or hate him. And those that hate him really hate him which is unfortunate. I think he's a hell of a guitar player and he knows a lot more about guitars and guitar sound than most people are willing to give him credit for. I love the look and sound of this guitar and can't wait to try one out. However, I'm concerned about the fret board radius. If the radius was 9.5 or higher I probably would have ordered one already, but who knows I might just love it. In the end, I'm probably making too big a deal out of that aspect. I appreciate his candor in talking about his guitar.

Looking foreword to playing one!

..love that thing around 26mins...and btw..a great honest talk..

nice demo John

Sounds like a really nice guitar. The 90's Strat Plus with Lace Sensors and TBX had great bottom end in the bridge, plenty of bite when wide open and quiet.

Great video. New respect for John Mayer

Ouch that sounds too good! 100% want one but I don't have a red Tesla so hope PRS do a Vintage Sunburst sometime soon to match my rusty Ford.

Nobody complained about Schecter or Charvel copying the Strat sound. Therefore, PRS will take his own place in this, as well. I love PRS axes. I prefer the neck angle which is shallower like an Epiphone so you'll have less string binding...You'll always have your place with the Strat and you'll have yours with the Silver Sky, also. Leo would definitely welcome this axe...Thank you for your accomplishments...

G&L guitars have been doing similar things with their strats and teles. Leo Fender improved his design while at G&L. The Legacy, for example, replaced the tone controls with treble and bass controls. This Silver Sky sounds incredible. The tone controls make sense. The headstock...yeah, it works, sick wit it. Now do a Telecaster!

beautiful guitar, every brand have strat style guitar why not prs, and perfect artist for this is exactly John.

Fascinating video. Amazing playing. I'm sure there are still plenty of haters out there for this guitar, but that's life. I would definitely buy this guitar if I had the $$$$. Well, I would go play it first to be sure, but I like what I've seen and heard thus far and, honestly, I don't think the price is that unreasonable. I figured these would be in the $3500 - $4000 range when I first heard about it.

Excellent. Can’t wait to try one. Fender makes a great guitar, this guitar takes nothing away from them. I’ve had a PRS Santana III for 9-years and love it, I’m sure this Silver Sky is going to be a home run. Sadly the Santana doesn’t make me sound like Carlos and I fear the Silver Sky won’t let me sound like John

wow great playing on this.

the last minute of the video was so sick.

Excellent review! Ideally, he would have had the blk1 strat handy for an actual A to B comparison. A great video nonetheless.

John you should do show played versions when you’re on tour. You play the guitars at the show, sign them then they get sold at the local PRS dealer.

Holy crap ...jm you just won me back over ...Iam always trying to find a reference point for the knobs to know the number Iam on ...so frustrating not being able to have a direct way to recall where the tone/volume was when I got a certain sound I liked ...definitely make /design a guard with reference marks for the knobs and I’ll be completely sold on your genius 😉

Well done! Nuff Said.
