I once plugged into a Two-Rock JM Sig, and every woman around me left the room visibly pregnant. Needless to say, I am no longer welcome in that maternity ward.
@@TheParanoidAndroid79 It’s called a hat on a hat in comedy. Basically a muddled unclear joke. You wrote a poorly constructed comment and you should probably just end it all
I play pretty well. Feelin the swag.. So I just walked into the strip club with my pants around my calves. They didn't care. Had to slip em a 100 to not call the cops.
He's really good, no doubt about that. I think his point was that pretty much nobody can even compare themselves to John Mayer, and about as many people can make these amps sound as good as he can.
I think the thing people need to keep in mind when listening to these two amps is that the JMOD is supposed to sound like an amalgam of JM’s favorite amps in 1. From 2008-2014 he ALWAYS combined the smooth and dark Two Rock Sig with the very stiff and bright Steel String Singer. The combo of those two amps together is what we all know as his live tone between that era. If you listen to the JMOD and think about it incorporating that stiff response and percussive quality of the SSS with the sound of the Two Rock, I think the JMOD is so spot on in combining those two different amps into 1.
This is 100% my favorite video so far from Andertons. Danish Pete is so good.. and he's so humble and genuine about his skill level. The Captains expressions are priceless.
I watched this video with a smile on my face throughout it. This tone is one of the most inspiring sound from a guitarist. Incredible video! Thanks a lot! Cheers from Brazil
Watching this video in 2019 makes me so happy for you guys! Taking about having not met John “yet” or even joked about him on the show, now it’s a reality! So excited for you guys, keep up the awesome work!
On the strength of this, the Two-rock is in a class of its own. No question, for me anyway, but each to their own. Either way, the best gear here is Mr P. Honore.
If you open a Dumble up you cannot see an awful lot as Alex has covered the circuits up with epoxy (although there's also a bit of a practical reason to do this) it all helps to add to the mystique ! Pete getting fantastic sounds here, really great !! Thanks to the lucky man who owns all that stuff, brilliant video really enjoyed it !
I don't know how this video has never been recommended to me by youtube and how it doesn't have millions of views. Thanks so much for giving these amps to pete and the captain.
I honestly love John Mayer, but I am just as quick to look up and listen to Pete. Superb player and one of my favorite UA-cam personalities. The Captain is also a really smooth player in my opinion and very listenable. I always love to hear the Cap'n jam.
Never heard an AB of two amps that both sounded so GOOD! Usually there’s a clear winner with this kinda stuff, but both sounded so damn amazing. DAMN! Great great great playing Pete!
Jim Ryder The funny part is the owner of all this gear found your comment so amusing, he put it on his instagram story. I'm sure the guy definitely worked hard for it and I can guarantee that no parent would buy their child 40,000 + grand worth of gear. Which is ridiculous come to think about it...
Once a week, I come back and watch this video with my good headphones, then next week I'll watch Mick Taylor with the Dumble. Damn, you guys can got the TONE !
They both sound equally stellar. Thnx andertons for actually doing good useful compare videos. This video was more helpful than PRS own product videos of the jmod
Wow this video has some power!!! John just referenced the amp you mentioned on eBay and called out Two Rock on Instagram. Keep posting great videos and keep up the great work :)
Don't forget an equally important piece to the Mayer tone puzzle. The Blk1 Strat. The combination of the scooped pickups into a pair of mid-pushed amps makes for INCREDIBLE tone.
Holy cow, how could I have missed this one for over a year? Thanks for the amazing comparison. I think I need to watch it several times now to absorb all the details. Both are outstanding amps, and I see how the individual flavour of the amps appeals to different player preferences. To me, the TR started to outshine the PRS towards the end of the video, definitely in the looping part. Even adjusted for volume, the TR seems to be much fuller, and more mellow. Just gorgeous. Would love to own both, but I even count the JMOD to the unobtainium category :)
The Two Rock sounds like it fills that "deep sea of blankets" tonal range, warmth with clarity. Where the J-MOD just hits you with a percussive "cut" with a harmonic aura.
Pete if you would have switched to the middle pickup when trying to play "helpless" you would have nailed the tone! John plays it on his middle pickup when he plays it live. great video!
10:33 - Captain gets it bang on there. Beginners need more compression to mask the inconsistencies and non-musicality of their picking dynamics, once you are at a high level of competence you can use the dynamic range as a tool to add another dimension to the sound. This is why practice amps are highly compressed and pro's like valve amps and less gain.
The PRS is just amazong, the two rock sounds fantastic, don't get me wrong, but the PRS is just amazing for the John mayer stuff. The only time iit felt like it didn't have "as much" as the two rock was with the loop playing in the background, but I mean... John mMayer ain't got time for loops
Holy crap that Two Rock is amazing. I'm at Aspen on holiday, and there is a Classic Reverb in the D'Angelico store here. I think I'm gonna go play it tomorrow.
So the deal with the J-mod and some of those pedals (like the qtron) was, Johns tour with dead and company. He has a video where he talks about it with Paul Reed Smith and how the Super Eagle II was made to sound like Jerry Garcia's guitar and The J-mod was meant to allow him to play his own stuff but also play the dead tunes. The Super Eagles II had to have the longer scale length to get the percussive sound Jerry had, but has you guys said the J-mod has that extra percussive sound as well. Great video Loved watching you both cream all over this amazing gear; Just wanted to add some perspective.
Having an amp's electronics above the valves, being cooked, is a compromise that makes sense in a combo but surely very expensive heads should be the right way up.
John Mayer Two Rock Signature is its own model that evolved from the Classic Reverb V2/3 (which evolved from a Dumble Overdrive Special) NOT the Steel String Singer. Two Rock made 3 total amps called the "Oak Cliff Special" which were exact replicas of SSS #002
John put a story on his Instagram explaining the one for $30,000 on eBay right now is actually a scratch amp that didn’t make it through his testing. You can clearly feel the animosity towards the brand as he goes on to explain how greed ruined their relationship.
I bet Pete has been waiting for this day, playing Mayer licks for 50minutes without anyone complaining!
Simon Lund I've been waiting for it too!
LOL :D :D :D
Now That's Funny!
Why someone would complain?
I'm still waiting for this day.
"How to sound like John Mayer for under 40 grand"
mollers92 cant be done
more like how to sound like john mayer for a price of a kidney : )
mollers92 ahaha
Best comment :D
julian lopez Sounds Like John Mayer without Busting your Organs
Peter Honoré, the people's Mayer. 👍🎸 #danishmayer
Josh Tye #gayfordanishmayer

And also the people's Leonardo DiCaprio.

Amazing :-)

TheParanoidAndroid79 two years later I had a well needed laugh at this comment. Thank you
They would already have been pregnant in a maternity ward. I think you just walked into a hospital and annoyed a bunch of pregnant women
@@theolschoolblues That's the joke.

@@mikecantreed It's basic and clear misdirection. Comedy 101. Let it go.
This is without a doubt the best tones I ever heard in this channel.
Normally i am interested then they play everything with fuzz on and you can’t hear the difference between anything !
So true
Pete you're far too good a player to be so humble about it. If I could play like you I'd walk around with great flashing signs and a wind machine!
Stuart Carden it’s the fact that he’s so humble is one of the things that makes him so likeable.
Yes. Pete is awesome. I strive to be as humble as him.
I play pretty well. Feelin the swag.. So I just walked into the strip club with my pants around my calves. They didn't care. Had to slip em a 100 to not call the cops.

I genuinely love how much these two are kids in a candy store with this. Getting all giddy. This is what I subscribed for.
*"No nut November" has just become more challenging*
Hahaha Pete nuts at 21:20

The noise the Captain makes at 28:23 is historical, love the video!
This is 100% my favorite video so far from Andertons. Danish Pete is so good.. and he's so humble and genuine about his skill level. The Captains expressions are priceless.
Two rock. Hands down. The dynamic range is out of this world.
That moment when you realize Peter Honore is your favorite guitar player.
In my opinion, this is the best Pete has ever sounded. And that’s PETE we’re talking about
Maybe the best guitar tones I've ever heard on youtube. Danish Pete is a great, great player. Made my day!
I watched this video with a smile on my face throughout it. This tone is one of the most inspiring sound from a guitarist. Incredible video! Thanks a lot! Cheers from Brazil

That Two Rock is just something else, and Pete dude, super super nice playing mate.
Enjoyed this for two reasons 1) You're not selling this gear and 2) It impressed you both !
On the strength of this, the Two-rock is in a class of its own. No question, for me anyway, but each to their own. Either way, the best gear here is Mr P. Honore.
Even through the compression of UA-cam playback you can hear the depth and bloom of that Two Rock. The PRS can’t touch it.
If you open a Dumble up you cannot see an awful lot as Alex has covered the circuits up with epoxy (although there's also a bit of a practical reason to do this) it all helps to add to the mystique ! Pete getting fantastic sounds here, really great !! Thanks to the lucky man who owns all that stuff, brilliant video really enjoyed it !
Lordy lord Pete's song choices of John Mayer. This is the best Pete
I don't know how this video has never been recommended to me by youtube and how it doesn't have millions of views. Thanks so much for giving these amps to pete and the captain.
This was exceptionally amazing. My god, I can't keep from going all cross-eyed every time Pete starts playing.
Lol, this morning I was looking at petes insta pic of this rig again and asked myself when the video is coming!!
This is awesome guys!!!
I honestly love John Mayer, but I am just as quick to look up and listen to Pete. Superb player and one of my favorite UA-cam personalities. The Captain is also a really smooth player in my opinion and very listenable. I always love to hear the Cap'n jam.
Pete plays better
The day Captain meets John Mayer is the day we will have victory and world Peace. #gayformayer
Lol they met John at Namm. Settle for a Victory Amp? I got some peas. Not so much world peace ✌🏼. The job of prophet is not your calling 😂
#gayerformayer #manstalk
Awesome playing Pete. I hope you are in the process of getting yourself a Two-Rock like you said!
Never heard an AB of two amps that both sounded so GOOD! Usually there’s a clear winner with this kinda stuff, but both sounded so damn amazing. DAMN! Great great great playing Pete!
That was pure eargasm on a different level
For me, the winner is Two-Rock. Tonally, his best era ever. (Oh, and when he was using a Strat, too).
Adam Lee you said it, bro.
btw... love your stuff!
Thank you so much - means a lot!
Yeah, by far. Some of the live recordings are insane tone-wise (and I don't just mean WTLI).
The 335 test was very revealing - the Two-Rock was noticeably better with humbuckers to my ears.
I may be biased, as I have one, and it sings with a 335. Or any other guitar. It's remarkable.
I take it the owner of all this amazing gear is remaining anonymous because he doesn't want his wife finding out the actual value of it all? ;)
Colin Robertson or his house to get robbed
Colin Robertson
Hahahaha
Colin Robertson lol

Awesome!! Perfect timing, I have my Two-Rock amp coming this month ;)
Once a week, I come back and watch this video with my good headphones, then next week I'll watch Mick Taylor with the Dumble. Damn, you guys can got the TONE !
Maaaaaan, Pete, your playing brings me to tears!!! 😱
Awesome sounds guys...I'm also a massive John Mayer fan and love to see you guys testing these amps
They both sound equally stellar. Thnx andertons for actually doing good useful compare videos. This video was more helpful than PRS own product videos of the jmod
22:52 The quintessential John Mayer live solo tone. Beautiful.
Honestly theee best tones EVER on this channel! Great playing Pete!!
It's about time to do the "Captain meets Danish Pete"... Com on guys!
They did 😄
Y’all should have Mateus Asato on for a captain meets
Dude is a beast AND he is from my town!
Andertons dont like Suhr and Suhr artists for some reason (i.e., they don’t sell Suhr)
This is so beautiful I almost cried.
Amazing job pete!! You're a heckuva player!!
I get the feeling that Pete could make 100 grand a year busking with that rig - simply beautiful, exquisite.
Wow this video has some power!!! John just referenced the amp you mentioned on eBay and called out Two Rock on Instagram. Keep posting great videos and keep up the great work :)
Don't forget an equally important piece to the Mayer tone puzzle. The Blk1 Strat. The combination of the scooped pickups into a pair of mid-pushed amps makes for INCREDIBLE tone.
Which blk1?
Does anyone know what the pedal combo is at 29:30? Specifically the delay? Once the chords come in ‘round 29:42 that sound is so lush and beautiful
The sound from the Two Rock amp almost made me shit my pants..WOW!!.. And Yes, Pete!.. you DO do the playing of John Mayer justice.
One of these or 50 katanas???
Geeeez... IT is such fun to listen to these awesome gear setups. I am late to the party... 6 years! Better late than never 😢😮😮
Sometimes I think I'm fine with my little Quilter solid state, and then videos like this give me chills from start to finish...
oh Pete, that loop around 42mins is beautiful
you mean sweet home alabama? lol
They’re both insane but I love Pete’s playing the man is talented
That PRS sounds unreal. Closest thing I’ve heard to the sound in my head. Now if only I had the chops to match 🤣
Tone heaven with Danish Pete, amazing and beautiful!
They must be superb amps; they make Danish Pete sound like an immensely gifted, musical and versatile guitar player.
I have a feeling Danish Pete can get just as much out of those amps as John Mayer. Absolutely killer player.
Beautiful tones. Pure calming resonance. Something special there Pete. A lullaby. Tuck me up mate, tuck me up.
This rig is just life
Never felt so elated watching two guys share their feelings about another guy.
Endless love 💗
I could listen to that all day...
Brilliant!! Thank you gentlemen. That was awesome.

"Everybody's got a Centaur kicking around the house." Pun intended?
The Two Rock sounds like it fills that "deep sea of blankets" tonal range, warmth with clarity. Where the J-MOD just hits you with a percussive "cut" with a harmonic aura.
Please Kemper up the JMOD and do a blindfold test!!!
Well done Pete, nailed it!
Pete if you would have switched to the middle pickup when trying to play "helpless" you would have nailed the tone! John plays it on his middle pickup when he plays it live. great video!
Pete, you sounded incredible. You don't need to feel self conscious!

Explore avenues in a musical way... legendary stuff.
Dang, Pete... what I’d give for those chops, man... brilliant
Sounds amazing!
My recent recording with a THR10 is somewhat lacking in comparison.😢
I Love the Two-Rock! Great Playing :D !
Look it's Peter Mayer!
John was still using the two rocks with a dumble on the born and raised and paradise valley tours in London when I saw him
Love the way pete is nervous about doing these amps justice, even a man of his talent ?!?!
I think the word you're lookin for is articulate. It's a very articulate amp and it sounds magnificent
Pete is a monster player! Really amazing to listen and watch him play.
Pete gives me chills when he plays. What a legend!
Wow that tone, I want the two rock
I come back every week for this video
When Pete do the happy dance is always a good sign
I've got a two rock crystal 22 and it's by far my favorite amp.
I think you should output a .flac file from your original recordings and upload it so those of us who want, can download and have an eargasm!
Exactly, I'd dl that shit and chain smoke cigars.

Pete and a strat...Guitar Heaven. The man is a monster!!!
Having an amp's electronics above the valves, being cooked, is a compromise that makes sense in a combo but surely very expensive heads should be the right way up.
Lee looks like he's in heaven during that open jam! Those amps are so warm and perfectly blues-y
Good thing you have fun ... That's not what I call work ... Great sounds Pete!
A lot of that great sound is coming out of Pete's fingers.
The greatest machine here really isn't the guitar or even the amp, it's Pete... it's his hands... such a farking good guitarist
Didn't he want the gain channel for the Dead & Company tours ? Awesome video, great playing from Pete !
John Mayer Two Rock Signature is its own model that evolved from the Classic Reverb V2/3 (which evolved from a Dumble Overdrive Special) NOT the Steel String Singer. Two Rock made 3 total amps called the "Oak Cliff Special" which were exact replicas of SSS #002
You guys could really kemper profile iconic amplifiers and make a series out of it lol.
Humble Honore
filnn HAHAHA!!! Yes!!!!
Pete really should go and get himself a Two Rock. His playing deserves it.
John put a story on his Instagram explaining the one for $30,000 on eBay right now is actually a scratch amp that didn’t make it through his testing. You can clearly feel the animosity towards the brand as he goes on to explain how greed ruined their relationship.
