Blueprints: John Mayer's Tonal Foundation
John Mayer's guitar tone is instantly recognizable. Nearly three decades in, it remains one of the most studied and chased sounds in electric guitar. In Blueprints: John Mayer, Tom Butwin breaks it down to its core tenets. It starts with the signature PRS Silver Sky, runs through an iconic stacked chain of vintage overdrive circuits (with help from our friends @KeeleyElectronicsEdmond) and lands on spring reverb. The building blocks are approachable. The results speak for themselves.
