Its rosewood fretboard comes with a vintage 7.25\" radius that is perfect for big bends and chording. It's got 22 frets and the classic bird inlays. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bridge is a modified PRS patented Gen III Tremolo that has been screwed to the body, effectively rendering it a string-through hardtail bridge. Keeping the tremolo’s brass block in the equation adds a musical warmth to the guitar. At the other end of the strings are a brass nut and string retainer bar, which also contribute to the guitar’s resonance and tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerhaps most notably, the Dead Spec has something special going on with the electronics and hardware.  The Silver Sky’s jack plate has been swapped out for a brass-plate Alembic Blaster preamp. This preamp can be used as a straight boost but has an internal pot that allows players to add between 3-14 dB of gain to the guitar when turned on. This not only gives the Dead Spec Silver Sky added punch while maintaining crisp note separation, but it compensates for the capacitance that comes with long stage cables as well.  The circuit is bypassed when in the off position. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“After playing the Silver Sky designed for the 2023 Dead \u0026amp; Company summer tour, I realized the guitar was special. It quickly became apparent this wasn’t just a tool for one particular job but could be extremely versatile in other players’ hands. I’m excited to hear the music that’s made on these guitars.”\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e–\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJohn Mayer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile there are others out there, they are way more than this - here we have an opporutnity to get a Dead Spec Silver Sky that essentially new, at the best price out there.  The original hardshell case and paperwork is included.  Setup to play perfectly by the techs in our shop, the guitar is ready for it's next home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBODY\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody Construction: \u003c\/b\u003eSolidbody\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody Wood: \u003c\/b\u003eSwamp Ash\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTop Carve: \u003c\/b\u003eFlat Top\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFinish: \u003c\/b\u003eSatin Nitro\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNECK\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNumber of Frets: \u003c\/b\u003e22\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eScale Length: \u003c\/b\u003e25.5\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Wood: \u003c\/b\u003eMaple\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Construction: \u003c\/b\u003eScarfed\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTruss Rod: \u003c\/b\u003ePRS Double-Acting\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Shape: \u003c\/b\u003e635JM-R (Rosewood Fretboard)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Depth at the 1\/2 Fret: \u003c\/b\u003e55\/64\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Depth at the 12 1\/2 Fret: \u003c\/b\u003e63\/64\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Width at the Nut: \u003c\/b\u003e1 21\/32\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Width at the Body: \u003c\/b\u003e2 15\/64\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFretboard Wood: \u003c\/b\u003eRosewood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFretboard Radius: \u003c\/b\u003e7.25”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFretboard Inlay: \u003c\/b\u003eBirds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHeadstock Logo: \u003c\/b\u003eSignature, Decal\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNECK\/BODY ASSEMBLY\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck\/Body Assembly Type: \u003c\/b\u003eBolt-On\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHARDWARE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBridge: \u003c\/b\u003ePRS Patented Tremolo, Gen III, Surface-Mounted\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTuners: \u003c\/b\u003eVintage-Style, Locking\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardware Type: \u003c\/b\u003eNickel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNut: \u003c\/b\u003eBrass w\/ String Retainer\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eELECTRONICS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTreble Pickup: \u003c\/b\u003e635JM\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMiddle Pickup: \u003c\/b\u003e635JM\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBass Pickup: \u003c\/b\u003e635JM\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eControls: \u003c\/b\u003eOne Volume and Two Tone Controls with a 5-Way Blade Pickup Switch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePreamp: \u003c\/b\u003eAlembic Blaster, Brass\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eADDITIONAL INFO\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eStrings: \u003c\/b\u003e10's\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTuning: \u003c\/b\u003eStandard (6 String): E, A, D, G, B, E\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCase: \u003c\/b\u003eHardshell Case\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKU 113511::25:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSerial Number: 24 0379362\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"PRS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49884690645235,"sku":"80PRS049","price":5499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2433\/files\/1-Img45836.jpg?v=1783967779","url":"https:\/\/www.truetonemusic.com\/products\/pre-owned-2024-prs-john-mayer-silver-sky-dead-spec-moc-sand-satin-with-ohsc","provider":"Truetone Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
