PRS Silver Sky Defender Limited Edition- Arles Blue (1 of 500)

This is a Pre-Order listing! These guitars will ship to us in November. Shipping accommodations will be made on a first come-first serve basis.

The world’s most recognizable guitars are defined by more than tone. Their
shape and colors can be just as enduring as their sound. For generations,
guitar makers and players have looked to the road for colors that give
instruments character and identity.

For this limited-edition Silver Sky, that tradition gets personal.

This colorway started with Mayer’s own Arles Blue Defender – a color that
felt just as compelling on a guitar as it did on the vehicle that inspired it.
From Mayer’s vintage 4x4, a palette of four heritage finishes were chosen:
Arles Blue, Willow Green, Portofino Red, and Sandglow Yellow. Some of
Defender’s most memorable colorways pair vibrant body colors with a
contrasting black or white roof. That signature use of contrast also helped
shape the design language of the Defender Color Collection.

This run is limited to just 500 guitars in each color and 2,000 total worldwide,
and the color doesn’t stop at the body. Each instrument boasts a matching
painted headstock – a distinctive detail reserved for select limited-edition
Silver Sky models. Each Silver Sky Defender also comes in an ATA molded
case with a custom “DEFENDER” badge and features a unique neck plate
inscribed with its color name and “1 of 500,” marking its place in this limited
run.

Underneath these new colors is the Silver Sky players know: an instrument
developed by John Mayer and PRS around the sound, feel, and response of
the vintage guitars that inspired it, refined through PRS design and
craftsmanship.
Color has always been part of the Silver Sky story. This time, the inspiration
was parked a little closer to home.
