Source: prsguitars.com (verified 2026-08-01) · corroborated by guitarcenter.com. PRS's own official spec table for the SE Silver Sky (prsguitars.com/electrics/model/se_silver_sky) lists verbatim: Body Wood "Poplar", Top Carve "Flat Top", Number of Frets 22, Scale Length 25.5", Neck Wood "Maple", Neck Shape "635JM", Neck/Body Assembly Type "Bolt-On", Fretboard Wood "Rosewood", Fretboard Radius "8.5", Fretboard Inlay "Small Birds", Bridge "2-Point Steel Tremolo", and Treble/Middle/Bass Pickup "635JM 'S'" (an SSS single-coil trio replicating the John Mayer signature model). PRS's site does not publish a USD price (it resolves to the EU storefront), so price was corroborated via an archived Guitar Center listing for the identical model (Evergreen finish) showing "salePrice":"849.0" / "$849.00". No fetched page stated an actual instrument weight, so weight_lb is left null. Image is PRS's own CDN-served hero photo for this model, confirmed to load directly (200 OK, image/jpeg).
