From Sob Rock (2021). Sob Rock is the eighth studio album by American singer-songwriter John Mayer, released on July 16, 2021, by Columbia Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a PRS Silver Sky through a Two-Rock Akoya, the rig we use for John Mayer's other songs from Sob Rock, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck and middle pickups together. Standard tuning.
