Dagan - you don't need to keep apologizing. We're here 'cuz we're fans. Keep doing what ya do, brother. Cheers from Ottawa.
This video is awesome and definitely not pointless, just too short, we need more Dagan Mayer
The key to Mayer’s tone (aside from dynamics) is focusing on getting your clean tone BIG and powerful while staying clean. A compresor usually does the trick if you don’t have a hi wattage amp. Think along the lines of Hendrix’s tone.
I'm a simple man. I see John Mayer, I click
Justin Nielo *Same*
Guilty!
Not much more in life gets me as excited too see other John Mayer’s name
#GayforMayer
Trust me man, your 28 year old digits play F I N E. You've got skill.
John mayer finally!!! We know Dagan was happy to do this!!
Dagan is like the older brother I never knew I wanted
Great Video Dagan. I'm here because I like your videos in general. Definitely learned new info I didn't know which again is why I like your vids because you are a qwealth of knowledge and just good energy. Keep doing great videos. I bet most people are here just because they like your videos and you in general as a presenter.
Sounds like: John Mayer on PMTVUK
I’ve been looking for this comparison video my whole life. Thank you.
Just watched Someday I’ll Fly and the man is a genius with a wicked sense of humour 😊🎸🤘🏻
I loved it, great video. I hated Mayer when he first came out, Your Body is a Wonderland was not for me but later when he released Who Did You Think I Was I fell in love with his playing and sound. This was very informative and I'd love to see more like it.
I loved your authenticity. Like your style and sound, you are not Mayer and rightly point out that you are working with what you've got. You have your own unique style. Great job, keep working with what God gave you, cause it's your own thing. Better to be an original you than a cheap copy anyway!
Awesome vid dude. Very informed and great playing.
I love this type of video, please make more of this!
What a great way to present your products. I can´t buy them to be sent to Norway, but I love the enthusiastic way you present any type of gear. Great to see people who love their job. I do love my job too, though I am just running a small factory, but enthusiasm is contagious. Love to see any type of guitar, amps or gear you present. I am going to open my own guitar shop when the time is right. I am fifty, but I hope I´ll be as enthusiastic as you when that happens.
Great video Dagan and nice playing.
Beautiful playing bro!
It’s been awhile, damn! This inspired my rig! Same amp and pedals! Thanks for the tutorial man!
My money/anxiety saving dream would be for John Mayer to visit my house, play my strat with the amp and pedals I've got for me to realise it's not my gear, it's just me that sucks..
The best comment haha.
Mayer is a jedi and thanks for the video his tone is very much doable
Nailed!!!! What a great video!!!! I only would change the ts9 for a jhs bonsai 😊
Have you tried the JHS Bonsai? What do you think of it?
Love this! Would you be able to do Simon Neil from Biffy Clyro or john frusciante gear guide?
Go Dagan!!!
Calling John Mayer a Stevie Ray Vaughan rip off is like calling Stevie Ray Vaughan an Albert King or Jimi Hendrix rip off, which is like calling Jimi Hendrix a B.B King rip off. The point being the in the world of blues, EVERYBODY is just ripping off Robert Johnson🤣
I think most cool tones I like from Mayer come from humbuckers from his PRS "normal" guitars, specially from the Continuum album. I'm more satisfied trying to reproduce that tone with my Gibson Studio than with my Fender USA Strat.
To me, Mayer was his most original on his first 2 albums before he ventured into blues...cool chords and funky and definitely more pop...but it was really special...he improved as a guitar player 10 fold since then, but the sound of "Room for Squares" truly grabbed me and made me pay attention, along with the rest of the world. Also, "Neon" off his debut album may be the best guitar riff he has written
Over the years each player has added so much more to what was done before. For instance Mayer does the BB thing better then BB. Just like Stevie did the Albert King stuff better. There all great I don’t really like comparing but oh well that’s just how it is
@@semiografo Mayer is a single coil guy mate. Didn’t use prs till like 2015
@@semiografo Continuum was mostly recorded with a stratocaster, his custom one known as the black 1, no humbucker, as on the silver sky
Your play is not the JM vibe, but is amazing for me ❤… by the way, this guide is perfect 🎯
step 1: have $100,000
step 2: be john mayer
Were there John Mayer fans watching you film this and before filming they threatened you? I love the info and gear. Dont let no Dork Thug get in your head. Of course you are going to use what's in the store. Thanks for making the vid!!!
Hey, your reviews are as lovely as always, can you review the Jackson JS11 dinky please?
My maaaaaan Dagan with the great content !!
I think john's tone is particularly easy to get. Learn the hendrix muting technique, add a bit of overdrive and a room style reverb, and you're set.
you have good reviews.
Gave me some great ideas. Putting a Greenchild Tribus in front of my Tubescreamer, Hadnt thought of that...........
I can not be the first one. But angry joe you play guitar very nicely.
18:32 - 🎶 Turn the Klon onnnn 🎶 😂
Is the fender american professional ii 3 tone sunburst the same thing? Should I get it if I'm a mayer fan?
Budget options?
Could you do a Slash gear guide?
Hey man can you do a video on the guitar of prs se santana model
When you bust out the Strat was like a breath of fresh air. It sounds so much better than the muffled mid range PRS👍
Tbh I’ve had pretty good experiences getting a similar sound to John Mayer with just a vintage modified strat. The pickups will never sound exactly the same but you don’t need them to sound like him
russel brand, haha, 035, haha, good playing though dagan, always good to see you
How do you record these videos? Great playing and all, but it's always sound so "boxy" and lo-fi, maybe add a room mic and mix it better?
The fact that you need the disclaimers to minimize the comments from dudes in their mom’s basement with a phone in one hand and a hot pocket she just brought down in the other hand is sad but necessary. Thank you for this video. As a result, I now own the soul food pedal.
I have this same exact rig only I got blue ss
Genesis Pickups just cloned the PRS635JM pickups. You can hear them on their RUclips channel in an A/B comparison. They sound amazing.
Hi , what I need to buy to have the sound of slow dancing thanks
Doesn't he also use a Bluesbreaker pedal? There's a few good copies out there, for very little money, like the Mooer Blues Crab. Has more sparkle than the centaur or tube screamer.
The sound (especially distorted) in your videos mostly strike me as very mid-humpy, I'm not quite sure about the reason. Even with a Strat/Fender amp setup, which should be the exact opposite. It was the same with the intermediate guitar video. Maybe it's the mic setup? Or the room?
Anyway, the vids are enjoyable, so way to go.
He doesn’t use the bb that much anymore my roommate is a sound tech for him that’s how I know. He seems to just use the Klon
Steave vai gear guide plz🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Scoop the mids.
Done.
Plot twist: the guy behind the John Mayer gear instagram is John Mayer himself.
How do I get his "hood pass"?
we need a black sabbath one
I hate that he had to keep explaining what he's using, I think you got really close mate ,I enjoy your videos
Do metallica!
Captain Jack Sparrow deserves some rum after sailing :)
Sorry but I want to see a Fender strat. Dagan for PM.
Fun fact. Stevie never used the Texas specials.
Yeah how was he going too if they didn't even exist yet
Well he did a little but he much preferred his pickups. Texas specials sound great but in his rig it would have been to overdriven. The overwound the Texas speacials and his pickups were actually under wound.
@@bennycheca9426 they were made in i think '89 but I could be wrong. But they were around and SRV played them a little bit to test the prototype srv signature strats.
@@noahbergman7777 shit I forgot that he was alive during 89
@@noahbergman7777, the guitar was released in 91, he died in 90, and the guitar released was very different than what he told fender he wanted it to be. His vision was something much lower end for kids. Fender did the opposite of his vision. His guitar was a frankenstrat made up of various vintage strat parts because of all the shit that broke on it over the years. Including the neck which had a speaker cabinet fall on it and break it. Best they can tell it started it's life as a 59 standard. But the Texas specials are nothing like the pickups on his number one, and they were never in his number one. The SRV sound has nothing to do with those pickups.
I didn't just hear "Your Body Is a Wonderland" on a Stevie Ray Vaughan guitar, did I?
For the love of god what is the correct colour name of that beautiful blue 62 Strat!?!?
Relic Daphne Blue apparently
Dagan seems to have the same taste in watches as John does.
Green Day gear guide?
How to sound like John Mayer: a couple of semesters at Berkeley might help
He didn't finish Berklee he moved to Ga
Arturo Hernandez That’s why he said a couple of semesters
only if you have $90,000
I would have chosen the blackface deluxe given the option of the 65 or 68, specifically for the cleaner sound. That's just splitting hairs though, you've done great considering all the gear related to this guy.
Really, I have played them side by side and I preferred the 68. I am not an amp expert, just looking for that Mayer/SRV sound.
@@BillyMac812 I do prefer the 68 myself as well, just a bit extra sparkle and it has the modified channel 2 with a Bassman tone stack. You should really try sending it to a closed back 212 cabinet. It sounds wonderful!
@@RobertNolan thank you so much. I really appreciate all the tips and advice I can get.
@@BillyMac812 any time, amps are fun!
Send me this silver sky and I’ll see if it’s as good as I think it is.
nice, first
Allan Holdsworth gear guide ??
John Mayer used Jackson to play think out loud solo in a live show with Ed sheeran. We all know that John Mayer nailed it.
Sorry flint 😂😂
i didn’t know portnoy plays guitar
Sorry for spoiling 888 likes with my own)
nice,second
Sry Flint...haha..
Well said, John has got all of his guitar idols and smashed all of their techniques together to make his own sound. Kinda like how you clearly are influenced by Russell Brand 🤪😂
LMAO .... you said what we're all thinking.
REALLY NO BODY CAN SOUND LIKE JOHN MAYER EXEPT,. JOHN MAYER REALLY HAHAHAHA
Only for 5 grand...
"How to kinda sound like JM nowhere near a band or even a drummer"
Alright your guitar hero was Phil X! I got it right? Man I miss Phil X playing randomly, sloppyish songs, fast talking, some craziness...you did all there! Aw, and also great Mayer approach. But your Phil X approach is way better! Just kidding! Haha
YOUR FENDER OUT OF TUNE
Is this guy serious?
Jesus that tone has absolutely nothing to do with JM..
Gear will not make you sound like John Mayer…..
Too muddy.
Guitar is immediately out of tune. Never heard that from John Mayer. At least be in tune at the start......
It's official, just someone playing John mayer makes me cringe🤢
Yeah, okay, bud
Get a life mate, if not a fan, of Dagan spefically, why watch? Offical? Arrogant!
@@T5Zplayer love dagan!! Hate John mayer
Love him or hate him prob one of most versatile and skillfull players of this era,how many of the greatest could play as many genres to mayers level
You're saying that cause u cant play any of his songs.
russel brand, haha, 035, haha, good playing though dagan, always good to see you
