Yup and although I grew up in the states i have european parents and i think that sensibility was natural to me also as a budding guitarist in the late 80s and early 90s. While other american guitarists were buying Guitar magazine to learn how to 'shred' like Van Halen and Yngwie Malmsteen, I was using my ear to learn how to play like Marr and Robert Smith.

His guitar playing was infinitely more unique and creative than anything 99% of his contemporaries were offering. And still is to this day.

During the evening he came over and personally thanked us for coming along to work with him,and chatted with us for a while . You wouldn't get that from most superstars , which is what Johnny Marr is in the true sense . Not only is he a genius, but true royalty, and a top human being . Thanks for the music Johnny 🤩.

I remember when Meat came out. I was already a Smiths fan, and just about every written article about them talked about how completely impossible it was to figure out Marr's arpeggiated parts. Well, while they are a bit difficult, I've got to say that with this video, I hammered it out quite respectably in just about an hours time. The key for me was the tuning--I had no idea! What a beautiful tune with easy and harder parts that were a good stretch for me. Thank you Mr. Marr and Fender for posting this! I would LOVE to see more Marr videos. His guitar parts are absolutely golden and perfect but dangit if it's hard to figure out exactly what he's doing without some help.

Throw some chorus and reverb over that and you’ve got yourself some of the most melancholy 80s riffs you’ve ever heard!

Johnny Marr was perhaps to modest to note that he was merely 21 yrs old when this song came out in Feb 1985, which means he was literally younger than I am now (b. 1997), oh well at least we're both October babies! Brilliant, melancholy, unique guitar on this song, don't think I've ever heard anything like it in rock, and I listen to ALOT of music.

One of the things that Marr's work with the Smiths so refreshing was that he tried to avoid blues rock cliches and the pentatonic minor scale

Hi, Johnny! I'm AL REIS brazilian guitarrist and songwriter of SoftRock and Romantic Ballads of THE NEWSAGAINST BAND. Nice your style. I still like you and of The Smiths since 1992. Unhappily I didn't know your band in 1985 when you published "How Soon Is Now, The Boy With The Thorn In His Side, This Charming Man..." among others that I adore. This sound you used to play is half psicodelyc! Nice! An embrace!

How on Earth did he create this and all the other incredible Smiths masterpieces? What I admire is the simplicity in which he teaches such a complex song, to the point where I feel confident many guitar players around the world will be able to add this to their arsenal. Johnny Marr, you are a fucking Wizard.

I love the way Johnny describes what he's playing, not by rattling off chord names but by fret number! Just shows you, his genius is utterly natural, he doesn't even need to know what chords he's playing.

Very creative young man. Thank you for sharing your brilliant “experiments” with us, Johnny! That’s how I imagine Johnny coming up with this stuff… experimenting, probably noodling as far as he was concerned. But how creatively it all was found and pieced together. Very pleasingly musical to the ear and brain. Thanks, Johnny, to you and your bandmates!!

Wow! I never would've thought you could create such contrary and complex chords by using open E tuning. I'd always just associated it with blues and slide players. Brilliant! And what a generous and unassuming guy he is. Sharing his technique in detail like this with everyone. So refreshing to hear from a truly skilled guitarist with none of the "great guitarist" ego or posturing. Thanks for sharing your craft Johnny!

@@joecvar, I'm so tempted to finally pull the trigger. Though I have several guitars already, there's something about the Johnny Marr Jags that just makes them special. Until then, I'll keep banging out JM riffs on my modified Squier Jaguar and Rickenbacker 360.
