John Mayer PRS Silver Sky Demo - Mostly Playing, A Little Talking 

The "more playing and less talking" rules are only for the general guitar youtube channel hosts. Hell, mayer could just talk about the guitar for an hour and I would still watch it

Thought he was using looper in a sec lol damn john

And that’s how you sell a guitar

He was chillin in the first half, but he went ham in the second half

Wow, no negative comments! And also I've always respected John Mayer for keeping guitar alive in more pop/contemporary music.

God damn he makes it sound great! Your results may vary.

John Mayer doing a demo is tastier than 99.9% of polished, complete songs.

Wow. Who needs a looper lol

John Mayer is doing exactly what makes sense for a top tier player today and working with one of the few big guitar makers that still is owned by someone who loves and plays guitar

Are we not going to talk about that ending chord? Sich a beautiful sound. Like most (and massive Mayer fan) I was a little underwhelmed in the first half. And then totally blown away. Like he subtly weaved in thematic bits he planned to use later. This is storytelling with the guitar

The ACTUAL star of this video is his left thumb.

At first I was like... He definitely could have done a more catchy pulse to demo, then slowly with each phrase I got more and more mesmerized and by the end i was laughing at his mastery. Talk about complete brain to fingers connection with the instrument. 🤯

I could listen to him play all day long

Finally a demo video where there is actually more playing than talking! Love it!

I just ordered the dodgem blue and it comes in on Friday! Can’t wait!

Even if it plays with SX or squire guitar, it sounds the same. PRS or Fender its doesnt matter. He is John Mayer. :)

I didn’t realize that he wasn’t looping until getting through a good portion of the clip 😳

Timing is everything and John displayed it superbly here

Nobody can play lead in between rhythm better than John! Just amazing!!

John, you can’t help but be meaningfully artistic in any chance of expression you come upon. Thank you for doing this!

Hey, I could do that. Just need about thirty more years of practice, an additional left hand and... Damn, that's tasty. Thanks, John. Thanks, Paul.

Dude reminds me how he’s the best at what he does every time.

I love when we can actually see what his hands are doing along the fret board... yet, I still won't be able to even come close to replicating that. I mean, it is crazy how effortless he makes it look when he is bouncing back and forth between rhythm and lead.... fantastic Demo!

I hated this guitar when it came out but now I want one so bad. John's a beast

2:35 john's affection for his guitar

not gonna lie I didn't like the silver sky at first, but its growing on me

Such dynamic playing!!! Superb!!!!

the amount of dynamics

JM, the human looper! Fine player..

1:49 section is insane! How the hell was he making it sound that way.😱

John and PRS came up with the perfect guitar for John. John is a completely masterful player and knows what he wants, and Paul Reed Smith just knows how to get it done perfectly and precisely to what the player envisions and hears in their head. Not easy at all, but PRS is just a Tonal Genius!!!

One of the BEST guitars ever!!! A MASTERPIECE!!!

This guitar will be sold worldwide, thanks John Mayer 🤗

There you have it.. Damn... That sound and skills mr meyer is killing it soo much. 2Thumbs up sir!

The title is wrong... John lets the guitar talk ❤️

Genius. And he doesn't need a looper pedal. Gênio. E e ele faz tudo isso sem um pedal de looper

Thanks John! Always a pleasure to hear you. Thanks uploader!

thankyou for those lil goof ups..... I almost put down my guitar otherwise !

What a beautiful guitar

Own one. Sounds and plays great.

I love watching John play

Someone give that guitar a cigarette.

John Mayer is simply just the greatest!

Still prefer Strats, but I do dig the Watch 🎸👍✌️👏😎

Awesome job musicians friends!! You guys are killing it keep it up!!

Time to practice without the looper. That concentration he has.

One of the most talented guitar players ever John doesn't even know how good he is yet

Wow they got the right guy doing the demo.

I'm John Mayer and I'm ready to be a star!!!

Sweet guitar…. I’m sure it feels fantastic and we all hear what it sounds common and the guts are done up right 👍

Anyone know the chord he is using primarily for the rhythm parts?

I bought mine when it came out. I own strats from 56-65. They are all great at one thing. My SS is hands down the best guitar I own of the strat variety.It sounds great in every position.

Well. 5 years in High School and talking with no one, back to the house and practice guitar for 6 hours every day is definitely worth it

I never liked the PRS headstock, but it matches on the Silversky

I think black may be the best looking color on this guitar, seeing it here.

Man this guy can play

Wow. Just wow!

Man his playing 🔥

which mode did he mix with the blues scale? I want to play like that

Crazy control

I think he would be great artist and guitar player :)

Beast !

and that, is a guitar god

Maestro

Holy shit... TONE GOALS

HOT DAMN, JOHN

John “Looper” Mayer

Anyone feel like his leads sound like a 335? Strat rhythm, humbucker leads...Incredible...

This is all really epic, but I can't stop looking at his sleeves. It looks like his hands are coming out of my grannies curtains. But damn he can play.

We need a John mayer album of just guitar playing

Unreal

amazing

this man doin double duty. young guitarists take note

He’s underrated as a guitar player.

What string gauge?

and in addition to his two guitars, the Martin acoustic and the PRS Strat-pretender, John Boy has the, ta da, PRS John Mayer J-MOD 100-Watt Head in Stealth Tube Amplifier Black that sells for a little under 6 thousand dollars, and if you can't afford that model, you can just buy the companion PRS John Mayer J-MOD Stealth 130W 2X12 Guitar Amplifier Speaker Cabinet Black for just over a 1000 dollars. The amp and the speaker together are a hefty investment of more than 7 thousand dollars. As one hilariously reviewer wrote about the amp on Musician's friends, "Not only am I one of THE prominent plastic surgeons here in Hollywood (busy as heck-always) I am also a HUGE John Mayer fan. So when my eight year old son wanted to try to learn electric guitar a PRS ten top and this amplifier was the obvious choice. He is really starting to make some music (or his version of music) with this amp. Because of the power (volume-wise) he can really hear the chords he is learning to make. I never was a big fan of Justin Bieber or Miley Cyrus but when he plays those songs out of this amp, let me tell you, you can FEEL the music. Some of the servants in the house have actually taken out their earplugs and told me that he has a future in music-nice. Sure the amp is a little expensive, but what the heck-my kid is worth it. Just FYI , we are running the amp through two Marshall 4X12 stacks, which have broken more than a few windows!. That's OK though, windows can be fixed-just like droopy old rich faces and hook noses and sagging breasts."

It’s an absolutely beautiful strat. I know coz I have one...

Hell yeah John !!

i kinda want one now!

What kind rig he used,,sound freakin awesome,,muddy but shini ..

I just got one and it is that good. Totally worth the money. The se was good but this is great. The SE felt cheap and was not in its league. Did not sound the same. Save your money and buy one ( used)

Anyone else just restart the video the second it finished!

Dual professional in the back?

Will there be a a SE Version ???

Anyone wanna tell me what beautiful ass chord is John using at 2:32

I think the guitar is not special, but the player is. Looks like a strat with a PRS neck. Innovation sounds/looks different. It is just a selling point!

awesome!

Does anyone know what song it sounds like he plays at 2:13 sounds like???

Yah boi is starting his full transition to bbking

Sweet lord jesus that tone, clon and a ts10?

Took way too long for me to realize he wasn't using a looper

@johnmayer Word.

He didn't need a looper. He was the looper

What key is this??

This man is à beast. But dont understand to make a prs copy stratocaster... Why dont make another form ?

how is this guitar different from a fender strat?

small guitar body?

What looper pedal is this?

His Stratocaster sounds way better. Of course they use him as a brand, he could make a hello kitty guitar sound good like Wylde and Tremonti did lol
