Fun Story: The solo played here is actually one of the first iterations before it was was finalized and mastered (basically what you hear on the record). When this album released in 2009, Apple released a deluxe version that was this… interactive album experience within iTunes. And in this iTunes deluxe “packaging”, a demo version of Heartbreak Warfare was offered, containing this version of the solo. So in a way, you could consider this to be the “original” solo prior to its final cut! Funny - As good as the final cut solo is, I always preferred this one. I can’t explain why… I think I just liked how opposite of the tonal spectrum this one was to the album cut: low and brooding before coming up to its lower “crying” end.

This solo has something so special about. It isn’t overly intricate but the tone is so melancholic. I wish it was longer.

John really is a pioneer of unique guitar sounds. The idea of bouncing on the whammy bar to create that distinct wave-like sound is genius and so mesmerizing

I won concert tickets off the radio to see John Mayer in Birmingham, AL in 2010. I had several of his CDs and I told my friend you drive us to Birmingham and I’ll give you the other ticket. I was totally SHOCKED at what a FANTASTIC guitar player he is. I was literally speechless!!! He’s WONDERFUL live don’t ever miss a chance to see him live!!!!! ❤️🎶🥰💞

lucky!!! you caught him at a great time! 2008-2010 was a special time as a mayer fan imo. its when he became himself. took him a few good albums to do so but when he hit continuum and battle studies that was it. he found his niche and started to have alot of fun and be john mayer
