I just found out who John Mayer really is after watching some guitar tutorials. I thought all this time because of the media and his relationships with famous pop celebrities that he was some kind of Michael Bublé without any other musical talent than singing or some average guitarist like Jason Mraz, just playing 4 chords songs most of the time. It was really biased, I admit it. This video really blew my mind. He is great and talented. I'm now checking out some old material and I think it's one of the biggest musical discoveries I have recently made.

Please do not repeat this false cliche about Mayer that his audience is only teenage girls. He was teenager’s idol in early 2000s, now no teenager listen to Mayer, because Mayer is not in the mainstream pop/rap scene. The only teenagers that listen to him are probably young guitar players. Mayer’s fan base are mostly guitar fans and even if some of them are not, they still do enjoy guitar music.

yes he would be one of the greatest guitarist if he played like this in the 60s when the soloing was still very young technically but in 2014 he really can't get this tittle because now jimi hendrix songs can be played that way by anyone, and even there are some guitarists like john petrucci, andy timmons, paul gilbert and lot more who can play like this with their pinky so john mayer is just a good guitarist but definitely not one of the greatest

For some reason i had always listened to his stuff. People would always laugh when i mentioned John Mayer as a "Guitar Hero" figure. Now he's one of the biggest inspirations for musicians around today. He's not only keeping blues alive, but real music in general. And to see his influences. 2 drummers? definitely a Dead Head

John Mayer is amazing. Music is in the fingertips, a special sensibility. Mayer has that, like Clapton, B.B., Hendrix. Also music is about being in the moment, not anyone can do that. Jimi Hendrix was one of the most “in the moment” musicians ever, the pure power of his sound can give you drug equivalent effects, can build new connections in your brain. Clapton still amazes me more than Mayer because he's so fucking good with the way he plays in time, the rhythmic aspect of his solos, it's so fucking clever. And BB also amazes me more cause his vocabulary is just perfect, he comes up with licks that blow my mind. Santana too, he's got a way of picking the notes that is so unique, his mind is different u know. But John got the fingers just as good as these guys', and I believe he will soon achieve the stature of Clapton and BB. He playing Call me The Breeze with Jools Holland blew my mind, sounds damn good. I'm tempted to say Hendrix is almost untouchable for his ability of playing so in the moment, like Coltrane maybe. Hendrix was a force of nature, he was always in the highest highs, and I'm not talking about drugs, I'm talking about the way his mind operated. I don't think he needed the drugs to get there.

John is a way better lyricist than those guys, + a better songwriter. OF COURSE it's partly a matter of taste, but in this case it's quite obvious.... No disrespect though :) I love Hendrix Clapton and BB! Santana I'm not so familiar with though

Flike I get u man. I think Mayer is a good songwriter, but he's a bit cheesy. I do respect more clapton songs like “Layla” or “Anyday” or “I looked away”, they make me cry and go to much deeper and more important places in my consciousness. Maybe Mayer hasn't lived enough. Music is really about living, it's where blues and jazz came from. Nothing wrong with pop though. For example, Prince does amazing and deep songs.

Even his pop songs are different from mainstream pop artists. Pop helped him to come into the spotlight. From there on he has been able to inspire so many people to pick up the guitar. He has just nailed about every solo in every concert. He is a brilliant songwriter. Just go watch his interview for the release of New Light. Has collaborated with Barbara, B.B. King, Clapton and all of them have acknowledged his blues musicality. That must be for some reason. And if you say he has no soul, I don't even know how to respond to that. Maybe you are a rock.

JH has been dead almost 50yrs! I started high school the month he died. Those kids don’t appreciate his material. Different Time!! Closest thing we got to Jimi, right after that, was Robin Trower.

I can’t help commenting again on this. It is absolutely sensational. My favourite KZfaq video. The guitar work - wait - mastery - is on a completely different level. Incredible. Only those who play guitar really know how special this guy is.

Why not just celebrate that he is using his fame to promote and preserve great music to a new generation? He could have spent his whole career churning out vanilla hits winning Grammys by the dozens. But his first love has always been serious music! If you know the first think about music he is an amazing guitarist. I have been playing for 25 years and I agree with Eric Clapton he is a Master Guitarist

1973wildcatman You’re absolutely right. People are always comparing him with other great musicians. Why not look towards the positive side a bit. Nobody is going to change which musician you love more.

I hope in the future, 30 or even 50 years from now, people will be able to look back on Mayer as one of the guitar greats of history. I hope his ability is remembered and recognized for how tremendous it is. I'm sorry if people don't agree, and might just be my opinion, but this guy's stage presence, ingenuity and sheer fierceness and intensity is only outdone by SRV and Jimi.

Johns covers are some of the best I’ve seen, he puts so much love into them you can tell how much Jimi, srv, and bb king etc meant so much to him. That crowd doesn’t understand, but their kids sure as hell love it!

John Mayer is legend. Had heard some of his stuff for years but saw him three times with Dead & Co. That was the end all be all. Dude is out of his mind talented and puts everything into his playing. His greatness can't be denied!

He is not only so talented, but only did so much work over the last years. This is a truly masterpiece. Although you still here his affection to Clapton and Hendrix, it is facinating to see his own style devloping over the years. Jimmy would be proud.

+Darth GAME I find that if someone is good at the guitar then the audience will be quite motionless in a state of wonder. Anyway, I would recommend Troy Grady's channel which has a lot of information about speeding up guitar playing by focusing on the picking itself. It really helped me anyway...

+Darth GAME If you're learning i wouldn't suggest this song. It's not easy to really get the right tone. Maybe try to learn riffs, but as a whole it will be difficult. However if you're patient, the long grind will shove you forwards months in your training. I always liked overchallenging myself on a new instrument, but many find slowing down part by part tedious.

+Darth GAME Few of us and not very many, will make a crowd go crazy like this. Especially a crowd this huge, we all should be so lucky as to play in front of a crowd this size in our life times. John is a master of not only pop but of guitar music. Bless John Mayer for his willingness to share his talent and his soul with us. Cuz it shows whenever he is on stage.

Complexity doesn't necessarily make music better. It's how that melody connects with people emotionally. John doesn't try to fit as many notes as possible in every measure. What makes him so good to me is that he knows how to pick his notes to build a story that really connects with me. Listening to each of his albums bring me back to a previous chapter in my life or sometimes sheds new light every once in a while. Why do we have to judge everything to the point that it's either the best or it sucks. Enjoy it or find some music that connects with you.
