Notes & Caveats

  • ⚠️No explicit pedalboard or amp setting photo for this exact show; settings estimated based on Mayer's 2007 live rig and genre/era norms.
  • ⚠️No direct source for exact pedal models or knob settings; amp and guitar inferred from multiple live videos and Mayer's known 2007 touring setup.
  • ⚠️Pedal and effect information inferred from genre, Mayer's typical rig, and what is audibly present in the live recording.
  • ⚠️Settings cross-referenced with genre and era conventions for accuracy. John Mayer's live blues tone in this era is edge-of-breakup with a warm, mid-forward sound, using a Two-Rock or Dumble-style amp. The bass is full for warmth, mids are pushed for blues presence, treble is moderate to avoid harshness, and reverb is present for space but not overwhelming.
