Jerry should still be here playing this beautiful guitar but I will say that John was very respectful of his legacy while lending his own deft and tasteful style to the proceedings.
What's funny is after all this John barely touched it on this Dead And Co tour. Played it a few times on the first few gigs but went right back to his Super Eagle 1 and his 594's for the rest of the tour
Jim Yang They develop their own bridges/hardware, pickups, electronics configuration, manufacturing process and finishes. Is that enough for ya? Just because they don't invent flying cars doesn't mean there's no innovation. "Innovation is often also viewed as the application of better solutions that meet new requirements, unarticulated needs, or existing market needs."
Mayer himself has said it wasnt about getting Jerrys tone. It was getting a tone that suited those tunes but also reflected Mayers style. It was supposed to be a newer sound rather than a mimic of any one jerry guitar
I fell in love with PRS a little before I got my first electric and I had to have one so I got my SE as my first electric and I love it and is inspires me to play to this day. PRS continues to innovate bring these beautiful tools of artistic expression that bring out the best in you as a player whilst doubling as an art piece on its own and they are always out of reach. I'd love the opportunity to play one of these or a 594 one day, unfortunately I doubt I'll ever be in a position to own one
Jerry was great at taking us on the journey with him while he mixed chord tones and scale tones in search of what he found pleasing to his own ear. Lots of players can replicate Jerry's sound and style. What seems to be missing is the journey, where Jerry let us listen in while he tickled his brain with tones.
Odd that it's a semi hollow considering Jerry didn't play semi hollow except the Guild in the very early days. It certainly wasn't a part of the tone he was chasing. That ended with a bunch of heavy solid body guitars for him. And he loved them even though they killed his back during those longass shows.
I still have my 1987 Paul Reed Smith standard half Moon inlay electric blue tortoiseshell paint finish it's a rare one! My guitar sounds like Jerry Garcia's guitar! of course it's how you play more importantly than actual tone 🤠🇺🇸⚔️🦅
PRS guitars are the electric equivalent to a fine Martin acoustic. I've owned both, along with Gibsons, Fenders, etc... When you strum an E7 and listen to most top end guitars, you hear the E7 chord. When you strum a D-42 or one of these Eagles, you hear each string's note stacking up to make the chord... If I were currently playing full time, I'd have a couple of PRS beauties. Their tone and playability are as great as their fit and finish, classic American craftsmanship, period!
So I was watching a TH-cam of them at Madison square garden and it seemed to me the "f" hole was painted on? The reflection from the lights on the finish was smooth looking. And Mayer is doing an Astonishing job he is an amazing musician.
InnerFire- Graham No you’re right I have seen that also. He definitely has another one of these with a metallic “f-hole” wether it’s a sticker painted on. No sure of there’s any other differences between the 2 though
FYI... For anyone wanting the Garcia tone, you can't get it with this guitar. Period. This is indeed a fine guitar & is for getting the "Mayer with Dead & Co tone", but there's a well known formula & specific gear needed for the Garcia tone, which Mayer simply doesn't have or use. It's just a simple fact. It also takes much more than just the right guitar specs like DiMarzio SD II's, Onboard effects loop that Jerry used but are missing from this guitar, but the other half is very important too... Garcia also used a heavily modded Twin pre into a solid state McIntosh 2300 into JBL E-120's. A combo of all these things + right guitar specs is required for the "real" Jerry thing. But John can rock for sure, & has a great tone going on. It's just a stretch for PRS to invoke the name "Garcia" in an effort to make money, while not delivering at all on that tone.
Travis Elswick well that was only part of 69 and May of 70, hardly a signature tone or hard to get like later on, even though the playing itself was killer... its easy to get that tone so no "chasing Garcia tone" needed... it's the unique tone with wolf and tiger that are more desired by far for those after signature Garcia tone. The SG was a small phase but still great music. I prefer Wolf, Tiger and the Travis Bean with JGB myself.
Gear Nerd very well said. Fact is Garcia is one of those players that no matter what he played in any stage of his career he got that "Garcia" tone. Just his own personal touch and magic.
I finally got the chance to pick up a 594, and even with all the hype, after playing it I honestly feel it was under-hyped. Turned me into a huge believer in what PRS is doing. Now I just need to get a super eagle. I hope they aren't going to be a limited run this time around.
timijai22 I feel the same way. Picked up a custom 24 and felt it was good but not magical. Then I picked up the 594 and I felt so sad I didn't have the money to bring it home. It turned me into a huge believer as well. I'm still shocked by the way it felt, the tone, and even the looks. I could play two notes in that guitar for hours and be satisfied.
I have a 2016 McCarty limited 10 top with an ebony fretboard. Literally my favorite guitar. I love the vintage sounds and the neck is freaking perfect! If you see this PRS thank you so much!
Gorgeous guitar! Paul, it would be great if sometimes you just do a video on some of your stories/ experiences in the music industry/with artists/ designing guitars. That would be really interesting!
I didn't know that about the headstock, relaxing some of the wood for when John slides his hand down and being more accustomed to what he is used to. All those little nuggets of info are fun to know... as I didn't know this. Anyway, I've seen Dead & Company and the tones John achieves with this particular "tool" are just amazing. Very sweet, smooth, creamy... and I'll say quite different than John Mayer w/ his Fender. I've seen John live several times... in the early distortion days, I was VERY lucky to catch an all acoustic show (one of the best concerts I've been to). So it was neat to see him w/ Dead because it's like he's a completely different artist, even though he's not. I do wish there was a more cheaper version of the Super Eagle.
It was so perfect, John worked with PRS to build a completely different bolt neck guitar!? Basically a strat, even keeping a vintage 7.25 radius, 3 vintage output single coils, and no buffer boosts etc lol. They are prob flying off the shelfs. Nice one PRS.
Please make a core model inspired by this design that does not cost $12k!! We will buy a ton of them, They could be in the 3 to 4k range like the most of the core models.
uh, back in 1980, 4-6k was an insane price for a guitar, Just sayin. i can't afford a Super Eagle, but i have managed to acquire 3 PRS DGTs ( 2 ordered new). My point is this. While this guitar is one of the Cadillacs of the PRS line up, there are several other USA made PRS guitars that sound/play awesome without needing a 6 figure salary.
You bring up a good point. I would actually be surprised if PRS didn't end up offering a stripped down JM model in the core line. I think they would sell aplenty of them!
I just bought my first PRS at Brian Guitars in April. A core 08 black Mira and it's awesome! The signature guitar for the gtr player from 3 Doors Down was also incredible! Would make that or Swamp Ash Special my second PRS to join my Gibsons-Fenders-Ric and Gretsch guitars/basses!
To be honest, if JM hadn't fallen out with Fender, I'd be surprised if he didn't choose to tour with his master built strat and dumble/2 rock rig. He seems to have asked PRS to design him a guitar/amp rig that gets as close as they can to his original setup (narrowfields/coil taps and a Klon style boost).
James M saw him on the search for everything tour.. 80% of the show was on his strats. Then a bit on his Super Eagle 1 then 1 song on his “PRS Strat” which I think is horse shit. If you wanna play a Strat then quit the games lol
Isorozco511 His fender endorsements were for him to ONLY show fender amps on stage even if they were for show. He didnt want to do that. So he lost all endorsements He can use any guitar/amp he wants now Before he got paid and got all equipment paid for from fender. He just had to put fenders on stage. Even if using a dumble he had to have a dummy fender on stage.
Just watched this video and decided to go find one of these just to see what the price was. Finally found one that had already sold on Reverb LP, with a listed price of $16,754.07, and I can't find any evidence that any of them are for sale. They should have called it the Beanie Baby model, or perhaps the P.T. Barnum Special. What a crock. Look for the video of Garcia and Elvis Costello playing "You Win Again." Jerry is playing Costello's vintage Jazzmaster, and guess what? It sounds like Garcia. The production is a bit crude, but it's unmistakably Jerry. The magic was in his fingers and in his ears, not the wood or the metal.
I remember when I was a kid and was reading an interview with Garcia in one of the guitar magazines, and of course they asked him this kind of question about tone, sound, etc., and Jer responded, "I think for me, it is all in the wrist." I remember laughing at that. But ya know, it is the musician, not the instrument. Always will be.
Exactly. It's insane how many people are still trying to capitalize off him. Take any clean tube amp channel, boost your guitar with a tube screamer or something similar and with the right playing you should at least come close to one era of Jerry tone.
Chris - We agree, the preamp sounds great; Jason is a wizard! The JCF Audio preamp is an OEM part specifically made for the Super Eagle 2, so, we do not currently offer it as a modification through PTC or our parts department.
Some nerd on Twitter said that Carlos Santana played a gold Les Paul when he did the National Anthem before game 2 of the 2017 NBA Finals. That guy is failing badly at life, and i'm a gerbil.
Don't get me wrong. I'd love to own a super eagle. But 15k? Am I crazy to say that's egregious? I get it has the built in pre amp and effects loop but so does the Phred Instruments Tiger copy I bought. That was less that 2k. A PRS shouldn't cost as much as a reliable car.
Nah. Everybody wants a fucking gofundme or a bum handout these days. It's pathetic. I'll lighten up when people learn how to get off their ass and make a dollar. It isn't rocket science. I did it, so can you.
For a guy who must certainly understand the necessity for bracing a neck to keep it from bending/warping HOW HOW HOW HOW HOW is it possible to produce a video that goes out to your (at the time I’m watching this) 159K subscribers where you have collars on your shirt that curl UP into your ear canals??? Get a set of collar-stays. If you don’t have a set of collar stays, I will send you a pair!
Wonder why he still plays the gold one fairly exclusively? I absolutely loved the green one, but it seems like it's stage appearances were short lived.
you know they put all that work into the super eagle 2 and john NEVER used it on tour, maybe once or twice????? he would always play the super eagle 1 instead??????????????? then he switched the whole pickup configuration on the eagle 1, then stopped playing it almost completely???????????? wtf????
These guitars are cool, but it’s pretty funny to listen to this guy take a shot at “bolt ons” when his company had to recreate the Stratocaster for Johns solo gig because their standard models weren’t good enough.... criticize the bolt on all you want, but at least fender has solid quality guitars that normal people can afford. Rant over
I felt it was kind of a shame and hope it’s not a show of true color that John went to prs instead of keeping it in the dead family and promoting alembic a company that could use the help ... i really never understood. I would like to think it wasn’t just about who offered a better endorsement but you’ll never get that info in an interview. Well at least prs is still ran mostly by Paul even if it is big corporate... it relieving he didn’t go to fender or Gibson corporate for a deal..
why does this guitar sound nothing like garcia's tone?????????????????oh i know, it's a plan to charge people 11,000.00 for a guitar, i understand..............also notice how mayer NEVER plays the super eagle 2, only the 1.......
What an incredible piece of art/engineering! PRS does it again!
2:40 "His 'bolt-on guitars'"
Clever statement, Paul.
Have to address it a certain way otherwise lawsuits can occur
I don't even care for the Super Eagle (OK, maybe a bit) but these PRS videos are so good, you just have to hear Paul tell stories.
Much appreciated. Thanks for watching! As always, there are more stories to come.
PRS Guitars Great, we'll be here to hear them!
Since the guitar has a lot of pickups and switches it could probably be useful for a cover band that does has s huge repertoire of songs.
mayer really blossomed in the last year. he is a master like clapton said.
he needs to start clinics to pass on his trade.
John is the man! He plays Jerry like no one else. He channels Jerry’s energy from his mind to his fingers
If you watch this how can you not appreciate what John Mayer is doing with Dead & Company?! This is pure art.
Jerry should still be here playing this beautiful guitar but I will say that John was very respectful of his legacy while lending his own deft and tasteful style to the proceedings.
What's funny is after all this John barely touched it on this Dead And Co tour. Played it a few times on the first few gigs but went right back to his Super Eagle 1 and his 594's for the rest of the tour
Paul is a consummate artisan and a true visionary. Listening to him talk makes me want to work for him.

Constant innovation, elegant design, Genius!
ummmmm no
Yadnesh. lol what did he innovate?

"Innovation is often also viewed as the application of better solutions that meet new requirements, unarticulated needs, or existing market needs."
He's a bit of an asshole though. Almost hit me with a car at Target and just fucking drove off.
@@JavaoftheLava Jeez give him a break he was probably thinking about his next guitar innovation.
Honestly I can’t hear the Jerry tone. BUT, it still has its own uniqueness and a beautiful tone on itself. Really wish I could get my hands on one
Mayer himself has said it wasnt about getting Jerrys tone. It was getting a tone that suited those tunes but also reflected Mayers style. It was supposed to be a newer sound rather than a mimic of any one jerry guitar
It has a Jerry tone but less bass tones of the 80s era. Also less saturation

I've got 30 prs guitars. I love them. Loved them since 1997. I'm 36 now and still enjoy them.
Angel years of saving and bunch of credit card debt 😂😂😂 but it's all paid off now but yes I have a problem
since when are too many guitars a problem? if that's true, I guess I have a problem too. strangely, my only problem is not having enough guitars.
You don’t have a problem, just the means of satisfying a harmless addiction/love that most of us players would love to to have. Rock on Bro!
I'm poor can I have one?
@@aquatichighs collectors bro.
that is a terribly lit interview

best way to get Jerry's sound is lots of practice
I didn't listen to Jerry Garcia up until now. Holy shit he sounds wonderful.
You know a lot about his tone, did you professionally work in this field?
When John was playing his bolt ons😂
Hahaha didnt even catch that
+Laki Bjornson ...he sounded a whole lot better.
Could've just said *"his old guitars, old tools"* etc.. better than saying "playing his bolt ons".
I'd love it if the super eagle became a mass produced guitar in loads of different colours. I'd like a red one
Damn,I love this guitar.and johns playing

Make it a core model.... pleeeeeeeeaaase :)
Now they do
Now for an SE version...
the se line is incredible for the price. I have 3 of them as well as a custom 24 ten top. I find myself playing the se models more.

Or the amp.
Exactly. It's insane how many people are still trying to capitalize off him. Take any clean tube amp channel, boost your guitar with a tube screamer or something similar and with the right playing you should at least come close to one era of Jerry tone.
Someone GETS it.
So you're saying that Jerry had those custom guitars made just for fun?
Maybe the best sounding PRS😀😀 great one
Is there any way I could buy the preamp from JCF or you guys? it sounds so good!!!
Chris - We agree, the preamp sounds great; Jason is a wizard! The JCF Audio preamp is an OEM part specifically made for the Super Eagle 2, so, we do not currently offer it as a modification through PTC or our parts department.
Dream guitar, well done PRS
Tone delivered
I wonder if they based the preamp on the Blade guitars of Switzerland preamp? Awesome onboard pre.
Some nerd on Twitter said that Carlos Santana played a gold Les Paul when he did the National Anthem before game 2 of the 2017 NBA Finals. That guy is failing badly at life, and i'm a gerbil.
that "Narrowfield " middle pickup... does someone know where I can find its specifications? or does someone know it?
Awesome
@PRS Guitars ...I don't understand the wooden bead concept and how that could even remotely sound like a solid body... Can you explain? I'm curious.
Anyone know the Dead song at the end and what show/date?
bought mine today :)
Does anyone know why John Mayer switched from PRS amps to Fender?
Jim Buongiorno John uses Dumble amps, not Fender or PRS. He might use his PRS for Dead and Co gigs, but for his own work he uses Dumble
what's the song being played in the backround?
Uncle Johns Band
So pretty much he just added a sonic maximizer to the circuitry
25 3/8"? Is 1/8" really that big of difference in playability? Beautiful guitar by the way
Maybe not to you or me, but to someone who plays 6+ hours a day for their living I could see it being noticeable.
Maybe one day😢😢😢
That’s some mood lighting lol
Nice! Now make one that regular folks can afford.
Don't get me wrong. I'd love to own a super eagle. But 15k? Am I crazy to say that's egregious? I get it has the built in pre amp and effects loop but so does the Phred Instruments Tiger copy I bought. That was less that 2k. A PRS shouldn't cost as much as a reliable car.
where can i buy ??
What a tough gig man. John may be the one guy on the scene who can really do it.
It's a PRS Rich Bich!
A production model of this would make me SOOOOOO happy. This guitar gives me the biggest boner, and then the price tag kills it.
What watch is that?
Sentence: WOODEN BEADS
in the f hole
Do that headstock on other guitars!!!
What is the difference between this and the original one. It just looks like the headstock is the only difference.
Can you guys just send me a free guitar? Doesn't HAVE to be this one, but I mean, I'd be okay with that...
Can you save up and buy it yourself instead of begging? Have a little self respect. And get a work ethic. No such thing as a free lunch.
CamboMake - Dude, lighten the fuck up. Seriously.
Nah. Everybody wants a fucking gofundme or a bum handout these days. It's pathetic. I'll lighten up when people learn how to get off their ass and make a dollar. It isn't rocket science. I did it, so can you.
Steve Rosebud amen!
And I bet you've had a lot of help along the way. Don't act like your life is reminiscent of everyone elses. Fuck off.
love prs but sad thing is for a good real true American made prs you'd have to win lottery too buy one
For a guy who must certainly understand the necessity for bracing a neck to keep it from bending/warping HOW HOW HOW HOW HOW is it possible to produce a video that goes out to your (at the time I’m watching this) 159K subscribers where you have collars on your shirt that curl UP into your ear canals??? Get a set of collar-stays.
If you don’t have a set of collar stays, I will send you a pair!
$12,000?
I like PRS, but not 15,000 grand, I think the price is really silly. Jerry only paid 4,000 grand for his. LOL
Inflation! I used to buy gas for .88 cents a gallon!
I wish it wasn't so inexpensive. That's my only nit.
This guitar is a tribute to Jerry Garcia in a way
Wonder why he still plays the gold one fairly exclusively? I absolutely loved the green one, but it seems like it's stage appearances were short lived.
Imitation is flattery- but it’s imitation. Imo all those prs sound nasal. I loved the neck and the balance of the guitar on mine -but that was it.
11k...
John Mayer should go back to singing to teenage girls
dirtdirt you’re just jealous, he’s a great musician...period
Was Interested but Lost me at John Mayer
11k ...really nigga ?

I felt it was kind of a shame and hope it’s not a show of true color that John went to prs instead of keeping it in the dead family and promoting alembic a company that could use the help ... i really never understood. I would like to think it wasn’t just about who offered a better endorsement but you’ll never get that info in an interview. Well at least prs is still ran mostly by Paul even if it is big corporate... it relieving he didn’t go to fender or Gibson corporate for a deal..
It's not the guitar... it's the player
Tone is not close nor is his phrasing. Great guitarist, great addition but not even remotely close
Nice guitar, can you play metal with it?
imo guitars with 3 pups have too much magnet thats tops strings vibration
Love Johns playing, but I dont think he has Jerrys tone at all.
made for money!
not for soul!
Goes without saying; its made for john mayer. finally killed the dead horse for me.
mark tremonti... pfff
why does this guitar sound nothing like garcia's tone?????????????????oh i know, it's a plan to charge people 11,000.00 for a guitar, i understand..............also notice how mayer NEVER plays the super eagle 2, only the 1.......
