NGD: Roxy Silver Sky

What's Hot
KylefKylef Frets: 1042
Seem to remember a bit of chat about this at the time of Mayer’s new release, and from the first instance they announced the release I put in a pre-order with Peach. 

I’m a Strat lover, I’ve a couple of CS Strats, but I’m definitely a Silver Sky lover. Was one of those who initially didn’t buy into it but after trying one I was converted. 

I’ve been through a few colours - Nebula, Tungsten, Dodgem Blue, currently still have a Moc Sand but this one is the keeper.

    At the moment yes. The Moc Sand was to keep me going until Roxy came but I’m going to try find a way to justify both. tone1 said:

    Can’t take credit, I was working so parcel was delivered to my folks house. Couldn’t wait to open it  :)

    I wish I am rich enough to burn PRS as firewood, dentistry is much more lucrative than I previously thought.








    HNGD!

    Hahaha, that is literally all I saw in these pics.  Glad somebody else did.

    I've a Dodgem Blue/rosewood one arriving today in trade from a fellow forumite.  I hope it feels less like a toy than the one I tried at the Cumbrian guitar show just after its release.

  • Just given mine a first go - and I am impressed.  The tremolo is quite tight to the body, which is disconcerting, as I like to flutter the trem a little (and it bounces off the body).  Maybe need to set it up as floating (which I didn't realise needs a shim).  Feels so easy to play and sounds lovely.  Need to tweak the setup as it seems a bit rattly but that's maybe just Strat types (I'm a Fender ignoramus)....

    That's pretty nice, I probably shouldn't have come in this thread.

  • Stunning.

    PRS do the nicest pinks. Think I've seen three different shades so far, all good. 
    They remind me of pleasant thinks, like school custard and Mr Kipling's Fondant Fancies. 

    Fender Shell Pink reminds me of dodgy salmon sandwiches, terrible buffets and food poisoning.

    I’m pretty impressed. I pulled out the USA Strat I have in classifieds to A/B (they’re a very similar colour) and while the difference isn’t vast, the PRS is definitely more for me. I’ve released the trem springs and it’s floating pretty well, action at 1.5mm on 12th, sounds lovely. I thought I might jettison it and keep the Strat but decided against. I forgot how much fun single coil guitars are.

    Wow! That's lovelier than I was hoping they would be, I'm also on the list and wasn't sure how they'd turn out! Enjoy and HNGD

    My head said brake, but my heart cried never.

  • Hey mate, I love the look of both of your silver skys! What is the difference like between them? Am I right in thinking the roxy pink will have the newer pickups and slightly larger fret wire - how do they compare? Thanks!
