Wow, did this just get released? I haven't heard anything about it.

I kinda hoped he'd get one actually. He's a pretty mean blues player underneath that pop persona plus I like his regular stuff to boot!
 
Re: Has John Mayer (of all people) made my perfect strat?

I was just thinking about this the other day, "why hasnt John Mayer have a signature strat yet?"
 
Re: Has John Mayer (of all people) made my perfect strat?

yeah, i think john mayer plays the pop to pay the bills, but his soul is in the blues. I'd rate him as a top blues player (today), and he toured with buddy guy so that's a big time plus.

That strat looks pretty darn good!

Wouldn't surprise me the least bit if it was a Stevie clone because on the crossroads DVD he is playing a SRV Strat with a new pickguard.

As a teenager I actually think he played the Blues circuit somewhere in Texas? A buddy of mine told me he started off playing the blues but that he had knack for pop songwriting, or something like that. But yeah, his blues are excellent.
 
Re: Has John Mayer (of all people) made my perfect strat?

he is a really good blues player. he studied jazz at some place like berkley and dropped out because he wasn't learning anything new. you really have to hear him go off on a SRV kind of tangent live to hear what kind of player he really is. he also has a martin sig guitar.
 
Re: Has John Mayer (of all people) made my perfect strat?

I like it; it's my kinda Strat, though I'm reaaly a Tele man.

If I was gonna buy one, I'd either be that or the Keith Partridge signature model.

The main difference there is that Mayer is a killer player :laugh2:. Check out the Crossroads Festival DVD for some proof.
