Pickguard for PRS SE Silver Sky Electric Guitars - Black Anodized

In this review the focus is a single-ply black anodized aluminum pickguard made specifically for PRS SE Silver Sky electric guitars. The bottom line: players who want a durable, low-profile upgrade that preserves the instrument's original mounting pattern will appreciate this pickguard. It replaces the stock guard with a brushed, corrosion-resistant finish while including the back plate and mounting screws for an easier swap. The review looks at fit, finish, installation, and limitations so buyers know whether it suits their instrument and aesthetic goals.

Key Features

• Single-ply aluminum: offers a lightweight, rigid surface that resists warping and gives a clean, modern look compared with plastic guards.
• Black anodized finish: provides corrosion resistance and a brushed texture that reduces visible scratches and reflects stage lights subtly.
• Includes back plate: the tremolo cover is supplied so the bridge area retains a factory-complete appearance after installation.
• Mounting screws included: simplifies installation for the pickguard itself so you do not need to hunt for replacement screws.
• Model-specific fit: made for PRS SE Silver Sky guitars to match factory hole placement and pickup cutouts for a drop-in replacement.

Who It's For

The pickguard is aimed at PRS SE Silver Sky owners who want a durable metal alternative to the original guard and prefer a brushed black aesthetic that pairs well with darker hardware. Players who perform or travel will value the anodized surface for its toughness and low-reflective sheen.

It is not suitable for left-handed Silver Sky models and will not fit guitars outside the PRS SE Silver Sky family. If you need alternate pickup or toggle switch screws, keep the original screws from your guitar, as the listing notes those are not included.
