PRS SE Silver Sky - Evergreen with Rosewood Fingerboard Review

It's a Silver Sky!

Had this since first released so this is not honeymoon phase review, this is the real deal! PRS simply nailed it again. I have owned a couple of the US PRS Silver Sky guitars so I know this to be true, this is the same sound, feel and vibe of it's US counterparts. You have to keep in mind that these are CNC made bodies and necks, in both US and Korea at the CORT factory. … read more The ONLY 3 differences on this SE version is the neck radius is 8-1/2 versus 7-1/4, which is something so minor you would be hard pressed to tell the difference. Another difference is non-locking tuners, but same look and feel otherwise. The last difference is the truss rod cover is the typical PRS type instead of the dog-tag shape of the US version. Pickups sound fantastic, identical to my ears to US version. Same look, same neck carve and satin finish on neck, same body contours, low weight (mine is just under 7 pounds). Bottom line, this guitar to me, gets you the same experience at about 1/3 of the price of a new US version. The very minor differences to me, are worth saving the money. Thanks PRS for offering this excellent option of the Silver Sky, a very cool guitar that most can now afford! Best thing I can say is play one and see for yourself! And special thanks to Sweetwater for posting all these with serial number and weights, actual pictures, and excellent customer service as always!

Pleasantly Surprised

I expected to receive a solid well made guitar when I ordered the SE version of the Silver Sky well my expectations were wrong. This guitar is way past that level. Since receiving it I've used it for some part of every single gig and the entirety of my praise band sets where it works beautifully. The other guitar player is a dedicated Les Paul guy and with two keyboard players as… read more well I'm able to occupy a different area of the sonic spectrum and cut through the mix with ease. The neck is smooth and easy, it stays in tune well and looks great. What's not to like?

Amazing Guitar

This guitar has the feel and sound of a much higher priced guitar. It is well worth the money. Color is great and the details of manufacturing are very well done. Sweetwater was awesome. They held the guitar for me until I could get there to see and play it in person.

Well done PRS

This is one of the best guitars I have owned. The neck and fret work is really good. The pickups sound great. The color is very dynamic and reacts to light dramatically. I think the evergreen will look great with stage lights.
