PRS announces new John Mayer Silver Sky signature guitar

“It’s been a dream of mine for years to design a guitar that includes some of my favorite vintage specifications but with a modern spirit and aesthetic. After two years of study and refinement, the Silver Sky is my vision of what a reboot of the electric guitar should look and feel like.” – John Mayer

PRS announced the official release of the new John Mayer signature Silver Sky guitar. The guitar has a bolt-on neck, comes in four great colors, and looks like the PRS version of a Fender Strat.

PRS has been on a roll this year, releasing all sorts of great products. The Mark Tremonti signature amp announced at NAMM sounds incredible, and this new signature guitar was so popular that it broke PRS' site the other day.

Chasing Questions Ep 1

Today I'm debuting a new series on Chasing Sound's YouTube channel, called Chasing Questions. I receive so many questions not only from students, but through email, on social media and elsewhere.

This first video answers three great questions from readers. The first is if you should mic up or "electrify" your acoustic guitar. The second question is all about what guitar picks I'm currently using, and why. The final question is one I hear all the time. I talk about knowing what you're going to practice, rather than aimlessly noodling.

If you stick around to the end, there's also a fun giveaway I'm doing. Last month's giveaway for picks and strings went so well, I thought I'd do another one for February!

I hope you enjoy this new series. If you have a question you'd like me to answer in an upcoming video, you can always reach out on Twitter, Facebook, right on YouTube, or by emailing me at Brian@ChasingSound.com.

Thanks for watching!
