No it IS an SRV, the hardware is gold and it has a left handed tremelo, its difficult to tell but it definitley is his SRV strat, he bought it when he was 17
-
He has got to perform this song more often. It's freaken awesome.

@ imprezzi,
The jm sig was spawned off the SRV strat that he's playing here. Few things to look out for, the stevie ray vaughn signature on the headstock and the Left handed bridge tremolo.
-
The solo gives me chills everytime...
-
Thats definitely a JM sig. strat not a SRV. Pretty much the same except the pickups are modified Texas Specials-Fender calls them Big Dippers. And the neck is slightly different.
-
i watched this fucking video a few hundred times the last few days ... this song is never getting old and his Coverd In Rain solos are spot on all the time. he's a master.
-
that solo... I'm in tears damnit.
-
The SRV Strat John is playing...is simply a masterpiece.
-
this is the best solo i have seen of covered in rain. he puts so much emotion into it. look at his face at 5:38, he fuckin screams. all of the solos he does for CIR are amazing and i think they tell the real story behind the meaning of the song. he makes the guitar cry. i think theres more behind it than just 9/11.
but thats just my opinion
-
ahhhh he never performs this! i hope to see it someday :)

@YolondaHayes I think you may be wrong. I was just playing both the John Mayer and SRV Signature a few days ago. They look very similar but I don't see any gold hardware, nor do I see the SRV engraved in the pickguard. That may just be the John Mayer signature but why do we care?



He is once again playing this on rare occasions for this tour... I am going to Cleveland and Pittsburgh.... If he plays it, it will be posted!

I knew it would be Covered In Rain when he brought out that guitar. That guitar has only been getting played during CIR and Heart of Life. He also played Heart of Life that night, a song I didn't think would make it on this tour.
