Premier Guitar's Rebecca Dirks is on location in Rockford, IL, where she catches up with Joe Bonamassa's tech Mike Hickey who details Bonamassa's current solo rig. Guitars. Bonamassa brings along an arsenal of guitars that includes both vintage and modern models.
Mayer also tends to play barre chords in the same style as Hendrix, using the thumb to fret the base note and mute the A-string of the guitar. This way, his remaining four fingers can easier do fills and small licks. John reportedly has over 200 guitars in his collection. A great guitar to use if you want to emulate Mayer's single-coil sound is the 2012 Gibson Les Paul Standard, which has push/pull pots that turn the humbuckers into single-coils. That way you get both the crunch and power of a Les Paul, and the smooth melodic sounds of a single-coil pickup.
