One of the things that makes Mayer’s tone Mayer’s tone is the fact that he fingerpicks as well as playing through guitar amps that nobody can possibly afford

I must confess that I am not a John Mayer fan but this video is great in showing the thought process and method behind building a board and sounds from combinations of pedals. Many thanks

John uses a lot of wah in the "where the light is" concert and uses it a lot for the trio stuff. Sounding like John Mayer is tough cause he has literally used everything AND he's just an absolute god at guitar and I would say that is 50% if not 75% of his tone.

@bigfoot_1824

I think in some of his newish music like ‘moving on and getting over’ he uses one too I’m pretty sure, 100% agree

The whole envelope filter struggle is why Jerry Garcia had an on board effects loop built into his guitars. That way the effect could always be hitting at the perfect response no matter where the volume knob was

Well done lads , you nailed it ! Those tiny pedals make great stocking stuffers too!

You have to turn the Q and the gain basically off. And push the pedal with the TS. If you leave the gain up on the q Tron it will clip when it peaks. Leaving both relatively off will prevent that. Also use your middle pickup. You’re welcome.

Thank you for enlightening me that he uses the octave in the q-from loop! I’m trying that

The mini tube screamer and the bad horse together was easily a Trio tone. It was super thick and creamy, but also sharp around the edges where it needed to be. The durple was definitely not the answer.

FYI The Boss Octave is a nod to Jerry Garcia, who used the pedal with his Mutron Envelope Filter. So Mayer uses his with his Qtron to replicate some of Jerry’s tones.

Good Morning and Good Day. Great video, We all appreciate your guitar skills and knowledge,

loved this video you guys loved it

Please make this into a series! I this would be great, as is this video

The Wah pedal is for sensitivity of the Qtron. It helps to trigger effect if you turn on wah and back off alittle to keep the sound on high end and then leave Wah alone once dialed in.

Well done!

I believe John rolled down the tone knob on his strat and either used the neck or the neck and middle pickups. I also think playing with fingers rather than a pick would get you a little closer to the tones you’re looking for on “I Don’t Trust Myself” and “Rosie”

Hey @andertons Mayer uses the Q-Tron for dead and co. They have a few songs where Jerry would use that sound. Jerry had an old pedal called a Mu-tron. Look up a Grateful Dead song called “shakedown street”.

I think he was using the auto-wah preset from the Roger Linn Adrenalinn 3 for the recording of trust myself...it was what he used for Bigger Than My Body and Heartbreak Warfare. I have one, and it gets the tone spot on. I think he switched to having the q-tron in his pedal board sometime after the continuum tour.

The octave is used for Belief! He uses the polyphonic mode on the OC3 to emphasize the bass notes on the main lick

Budget...which is why I have to rely on BIAS FX (which I picked up on a big sale). 😄 Great stuff, as always, guys.

I need more of that any artist pedal board on a budget!!!

Their mugs and shirts! Haha we need a proper the Captain and Danish Pete meet JM video

Envelope followers (filters) like the Qtron are very input level dependent. Jerry Garcia was a huge user of envelope filter and had an onboard fx loop built into his Doug Irwin guitars (Wolf, Tiger, and Rosebud) to avoid the inconsistency of trying to balance output level and getting the effect to sound right. If you work your guitar volume a lot, the envelope filter sound will change as you roll it back, until at a given point just fails to work. The onboard fx loop allows for the effect to have a consistent input level and performance while having a master volume on the guitar post fx loop to control the level that hits the next pedal or to the amp. Anyway, you can achieve the same thing with 2 volume pedals.

For the 'I Don't Trust Myself' tone, try rolling off the tone on the neck pickup. Make the Q Tron more subtle and that should be closer.

The key to a great envelope filter /auto wah sound is the blending of the full frequency unfiltered sound with the filtered sound. Your not going to do that by sending and receiving the entire sound through the filter. Bootsy Collins splits the unfiltered Mutron sound pre Mutron to one amp and the filter goes to another amp. With the Qtron plus there is an in and out plus a fx send and return which enables one amp to mix the 2 sounds. The Digitech Synth Wah pedal has a dry output as well as a wet output.

Yes! This is going to be an awesome video!

Honestly they did it better. Bea and Matt's approach is "Get what we think sounds like them, then go to the sound room and test it." I think they should take a bunch of options then mess with them to try to dial it in better like they've done here. Often times they miss the mark and I think it's because they're guessing, and come in with the wrong pedals for the job.

John Mayer bores me to tears.

A lot of catching that qtron filter right is using your fingertips to pick instead of a pick. It can fool the filter with the softer dynamics.

I really felt like some sort of dumble based drive was missing to nail that Belief solo. Also a fuzz for the Hendrix covers? My JM inspired setup is: Strat - Polytune mini - EHX Octavix - Mooer Ninety Orange - TS mini - JRAD The Dude - Ibanez Mini Delay -Amp (V40)

Haha, budget John Mayer isn't easy! Loving Danish Pete spitting out his tea at the "no way under £1000" comment :)

John Mayer ‘s board is actually less snooty than a lot of the pedal boards on the Gear Page as well as a lot of church pedal boards I see on any given weekend.

The octave pedal is used on Althea, cats under the stars, feel like a stranger, looks like rain and other dead songs. Qtron on estimated prophet, shakedown, Fire on the mountain, etc. Wah pedal is used for pre 1972 dead songs, after 1969 mainly used by “setting it in a single position for the song... not being varied. The phaser on Candyman, waiting for a miracle, some shakedown streets. Delay mainly used on JGB songs. Overdrive, Boss, too many to list. As with everything dead it’s all up for grabs as every song was played differently every time. Big part of Jerry Garcia’s tone was a fender blackface/silver face preamp into a solid state McIntosh MC2300 solid state audiophile amplifier through JBL K120 until replaced by 3 or usually four vertically stacked JBL e120s. This covers 1970 to 1993. Also most everything he plays and thus Mayer plays with dead and co is on the middle pickup with a split humbucker used from 1977 on.

The best Jerry Garcia player is John kadlecik... this is three different levels of pedal boards/effects used by john. www.johnkmusic.net/gear.html

I think the micro qtron can do the sound. I use it with the LP mode, Q under 9 o clock, and DRIVE almost maxed out

I really really really wanted the new boss waza headphones but there back ordered!!

The wah is used in between songs as a filler, in between many songs to slow down the pace like Belief. He also clicks it to the floor to use it as a volume control.

Wah pedal is maybe for the Rosie solo, Moving on and Getting Over, and I think Another Kind of Green. And octave is on the solo of his version of Crossroads and the Belief solo.

I believe the OC-2 is used more with dead & co. You’ll hear it sometimes on Fire on the mountain

I like to use a bit of octave to fatten up my tone going into the q tron!

Saw him on this European tour in Copenhagen and it was wah-city that night

Fun video and solid choice in pedals! The tone sounds great the only thing stopping it from getting that Mayer sound is the amp imo. I just dont think you can do it without the dynamics you get from a tube amp. I have the boss katana 50 and whilst it's a versatile amp you cant get that Mayer clean tone, it's just impossible. And even the fender cleans from the Champion cant really do it. I understand this is a budget video but just saying in case it helps anyone
