John played a John Mayer Solo set at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, CT, on October 9
 For the show, mainly acoustic guitars were used:
* Martin OM 000-14 Fret KOA
* Martin D-45 John Mayer
* Martin OM-45 John Mayer 20th Anniversary
* Martin 'S 0012-35'
* Martin OMJM
* Martin OM-28JM (serial 083)
* National ResoPhonic 12-string
* Martin Grand J-28E DN
He used a single electric guitar, a PRS Silver Sky, Onyx, retrofitted with an Alembic Blaster, like the Dead Spec Silver Sky. We first saw it last December in a clip jamming through the Archetype: John Mayer X; he also used it in February for solo shows.
His amp setup was the 50w Dumble Overdrive Special silver panel that was Carlos Santana’s and one of his most used amps, and the Dumble Small Special recently used for the Buddy Guy 90th birthday show. This is a pairing he had onstage for the Final Dead and Company tour in 2023, and it’s also the second time he used the Small Special fully visible: back then it was covered behind a curtain in a rack. Each amp fed a Two-Rock 2x12” vertical cabinet, with a Fender Vibroverb as backup.

He had his usual three-pedalboard setup:
Acoustic center:
* Boss TU-3
* Strymon Nightsky Midnight Edition
* TC Electronic Infinite Sustainer
* Boss RC-500
* Boss FS-5U
* Boss DM-101
* Eventide H90 Dark Harmonizer Moog EP-3 (for the H90)

Electric:
* Polytune 3
* Keeley Katana
* Ibanez TS10
* Unidentified pedal****
* J Rockett Jeff Archer
* Ibanez TS10
* Way Huge Aqua-Puss MkI
* Providence Chrono DLY-4
* Strymon Flint

Acoustic seated/double neck
* Boss TU-3
* Strymon Cloudburst
* Boss DM-101
* Boss RC-500
* Boss TU-3
* Strymon Nightsky Midnight Edition
* TC Electronic Infinite Sustainer
* Boss RC-500
* Eventide H90 Dark Harmonizer Moog EP-3 (for the H90) Hammond XPK-130G Kopf Percussion Oak ToeKicker

The unidentified pedal is intriguing. Talking to my pal @justinjeskeguitar, it may be an R2D Kentaur pedal, a Klon-styled overdrive. It resembles a Klon clone and seems to match the size, color, and lettering, but it’s still unconfirmed. If so, it’s quite a setup, having TS10, Klon-1, Klon-2, and TS10 again!

John took part in the Soundstage of Hope Benefit Gala and Concert this past Saturday, held at the Chaplin Recording Studios in Los Angeles, CA. The event was hosted by Dave Grohl and benefits homeless service providers Hope the Mission and Los Angeles Mission.
For the concert, John joined Dave, Chad Smith, and Chevy Metal to play a rendition of Van Halen’s “You Really Got Me”. For it, he used his custom-made purple Music Man/Ernie Ball Axis, made as an exact replica of the guitar Eddie Van Halen had on the cover of a 1991 Guitar World Magazine cover. Back in 2014, John asked Ernie Ball/Music Man to build an exact replica of the guitar, and they went one step further by using original parts from 1991 stored away and included a “JCM” monogram in the headstock. This is the first time we see him using the guitar at all!
His amp was a 1965 Marshall JTM45 MkII Plexi into a Mojotone 2x12” cabinet.
As for pedals, he mixed it up for the occasion:
- Boss TU-3
- unidentified pedal, maybe Katana but it’s blurry?
- Klon Centaur
- Ibanez TS10
- Mesa Boogie Flux Five
- MXR EVH Phase 90
- Boss BF-2 Flanger
- Providence Chrono DLY-4
- Strymon Flint
- 29 Pedals OAMP

He also played “Sweet Dreams” with Annie Lennox, Dave Grohl, Wendy Melvoin and Greg Kurstin. He used a Martin acoustic guitar, which isn’t an OM-28JM or an OMJM. Kinda resembles a D-45 but looks smaller? Probably an OM-42.
For the acoustic, he had a small pedalboard with a Boss CE-2, Boss DM-101 and a Sarno Black Box

This is a Donner DB3 19.75"x11.25" pedalboard nearing completion. I really like how much space there is underneath allowing me to mount pedals, a patch bay and power supplies.

Shout out to Jonathan at Nicholls Custom Designs for making me the custom patch bay with two 2.1mm DC and one 1/4" through jacks.

This is my first project using the new Cioks DC power cables instead of soldering my own. I think the right angle plugs are a huge improvement over the previous version.

The paper cutout is a placeholder for the JAM Pedals Harmonious Monk pedal. My son finds that pedal inspirational, so it gets transferred from board to board.

John took part in the 90th birthday celebration concert of the legendary Buddy Guy this past Thursday at the Radio City Music Hall in New York City.
He and Susan Tedeschi played Otis Redding’s “I’ve Got Dreams to Remember”, a song he covered with Buddy Guy years ago on his 2005 album “Bring ‘Em In”. He also joined Buddy for a new song from his upcoming album, a version of “A Real Mother For Ya”. The band had familiar faces, as Steve Jordan was the drummer and musical director, Isaiah Sharkey was the guitar player and Willie Weeks was the bass player.

He played his PRS Silver Sky Mojave Brown prototype with a brass nut/string retainer.
His amp was the Dumble Small Special, an amp he used back in 2023 with Dead and Company. The cabinet was a 2x12” Two-Rock cabinet. He had the 50w Dumble Overdrive Special silver panel as a backup as well.
His pedalboard setup was:
- Polytune 3
- Xotic Super Clean Buffer
- Keeley Katana
- Klon Centaur (blacked out)
- Ibanez TS10
- Way Huge Aqua-Puss MkII
- JHS Artificial Blonde
- Providence Chrono DLY-4
- Strymon Flint

During soundcheck, he had an Xotic X Blender pedal and an MXR Phase 90 in place of the Artificial Blonde.

Here’s one more for the weekend ☺️ Played a bit with @ghostnoteaudio_uk latest “Inversions” Fuzz pedal and got into the territory that reminded me of @joesatriani ‘s first album 😌

As the doors of Guitar Summit 2026 are about to officially open, here’s a quick peak into one of @ghostnoteaudio_uk new pedals launching today🤘🏻

More about Inversions:
“Inversions is our take on the famed Big Muff tone - but with a big twist.
Inversions uses CMOS inverters to build up its gain stages - the same chip used in the Sunn Beta Lead. This gives the pedal a sound that lies somewhere between the traditional, fuzzy tone of the Big Muff and the thicker, angrier sound of the Beta Lead.“

Visit the guys at Booth 168 and stay tuned for more demos coming soon 🙏🏻

John joined Lainey Wilson to perform live for the very first time their song "Phones, Keys, Wallet" during the Country Music Hall of Fame® and Museum's 2026 All for the Hall Los Angeles Benefit at The Novo on September 17, 2026, in Los Angeles, California.
John used his current favorite Silver Sky: Mojave Brown prototype with brass nut and string retainer. This is the guitar he has been heavily favoring for a while now. It is known that he used an El Cabron 'Cobra y Mezcal' guitar for the recording of the song.

His amp was a Fender Twin-Reverb, which looks like it was mic'd with a Sennheiser mic.
His pedalboard setup was a solid but simple layout that we've already seen him using before for one-off performances:
- Polytune 3
- Origin Effects SlideRIG
- Keeley Katana
- Klon Centaur (blacked out)
- Ibanez TS10 (engaged for the main solo)
- Way Huge Aqua-Puss MkII
- JHS Artificial Blonde
- Providence Chrono DLY-4
- Strymon Flint
All loaded into a D'Addario XPND-2
