PRS SE Silver Sky Defender Petra Copper Limited Edition

PRS SE Silver Sky Defender Petra Copper Limited Edition – Modern Design Meets Award-Winning Playability

PRS SE Silver Sky Defender Limited Edition combines the acclaimed Silver Sky model with an exclusive colour collection inspired by the current Land Rover Defender. The result is a limited-edition model that brings together classic design, modern manufacturing and the playability that has made Silver Sky a favourite among guitarists around the world.

Silver Sky has always been a model where colour and identity have been an important part of the overall concept. For the Defender Color Collection, John Mayer and PRS looked beyond the guitar world for inspiration and explored Defender’s extensive colour palette. After reviewing more than 900 colours, four modern finishes were selected and paired with a black pickguard. This is a unique detail for the series and gives the guitar a distinctive appearance.

The foundation is the same highly regarded SE Silver Sky, developed to deliver the response, dynamics and playability associated with classic vintage instruments. The poplar body provides a balanced tone with clear attack and excellent resonance, while the bolt-on maple neck contributes stability and fast response. The rosewood fretboard offers a warm playing feel and complements the instrument’s natural character.

The three PRS 635JM “S” single-coil pickups are designed to PRS specifications and deliver a full, dynamic sound with open highs and clear articulation. Combined with the traditional 5-way pickup selector, the guitar offers a wide range of useful tones for everything from blues and funk to rock, pop and modern studio productions.

Each model is also equipped with a custom neck plate designed exclusively for this series and comes supplied with a custom PRS/Land Rover gig bag.

"Teaming up with Defender to offer the Silver Sky guitar in their legendary Defender colors is a dream come true. I’ve always chosen colorways based on objects and materials that inspire me in the world, and as a collector and lover of Defenders, this collaboration is the perfect crossover between two great passions of mine."

– John Mayer

SE Silver Sky Defender Limited Edition is designed for musicians who want a guitar with both character and performance. The combination of modern Defender colours, thoughtful design and the well-known Silver Sky platform makes this a model that stands out both visually and musically.
