ELECTRIC GUITARS
01 PRS SE Silver Sky
£895
ne of the most controversial electric guitars of the 21st century was also one of its most brilliant – John Mayer colluding with Paul Reed Smith on an iconoclastic take on an early-60s Strat, foregrounding playability and tone, and finishing it off with a reverse headstock. The arrival of the more affordable SE model was arguably guitar story of the year, and presented players with a ridiculously classy instrument with a faultless build, superb playability, all kinds of top-tier S-style sounds, and finishes you would want to sink your teeth into. For £895, make you sound like him.
