Yes. How pissed off would you be if you were PRS? All the time and effort developing the guy a guitar (well, rearranging the switches on an existing one...) and he decides to play a sparkly pink Jackson Soloist.Mini Forklift Ⓥ wrote:Wow.

As an aside, more than once lately I've seen John Mayer playing pointy-headstock Jackson SSH/Floyd jobbies (Soloists I guess) in garish colours. Truthfully, the worst tone I've ever known him have. Maybe he's being ironic or something.

He mostly used it after the end of his Fender deal and before he was officially with PRS (~2015).Molly wrote:Yes. How pissed off would you be if you were PRS?

He played a Fender in his PRS sig amp demo, and that was after the release of his PRS sig guitar. So I'd guess PRS don't really care either way.
Amps:
Soldano SLO100 x2 | Wizard MC1 & MC2 | Diezel Herbert
Fryette Pittbull CL | Marshall 2203KK | Krank Rev 50 | Mesa Mark 2A

Nor should anyone else. Care about anything involving John Mayer, that is.godgrinder wrote: He played a Fender in his PRS sig amp demo, and that was after the release of his PRS sig guitar. So I'd guess PRS don't really care either way.

Indeed, coz a radiator grill would make a lousy pickup. Hmm, unless the radiator bars were magnets and the radiator frame hid a wire coilHackSaw wrote:I can't even recall where I got the pic from, wish it was a real guitar but I assume it's some sort of marketing photoshop...

Re: Why does no one make.....
Anyways, my friendly guitar pimp kdawg2a is going to let me try out some of his strats so I can get a feel for it, picked the telemaster up before and I really don't want to sell it now... so yeah, one RG on the block, keep the telemaster, buy a strat is likely future for moi....

Re: Why does no one make.....
Only time I've seen Mayer play Jackson is here
Was shortly after leaving Fender and a while before PRS.
But, to be fair, that's a 6k custom shop 30th Anniversary Jackson Soloist he received after NAMM, into a 5k SLO. Who wouldn't?!
*edit ok so he's played it more than a few times, most recently at the grammies and for a Tonight Show appearance in March. Guess he can do whatever the hell he wants haha.
