[@JorgeAguilera]

This channel is just great. I teach guitar lessons myself, but this format for solos is so good man. Keep it up, you will have more subscribers soon, just stay consistent. You really are doing a good job and you play well too. Kudos to you! I'll be learning John's solos in no time now.

[@thiethie]

+Jorge Aguilera Thanks. Much appreciated. I will try to make it consistent. Thanks for the support.

[@SpaceJesus_69]

How is this channel not famous yet, he's literally teaching guitar solos for free!

[@bigmacesm]

I subscribed to your channel because of this video. Your Human Nature video pulled me in, but this kept me here. You’re making a difference in guitar players like myself whether you know it or not. Thank you!

[@mg5672]

So many thanks to you , your patience is priceless for people like me. I can now play this song and bought a new guitar sire S7 and amp on the way. I began learning it in april this year and finnished my first recording of it last night. If you can not learn music then learn this and you will jam with lots pf songs in the same key. You are a legend but i am now broke again lol lol

[@Upside_Down_Guitar_Guy]

you're a legend dude. I've been looking for a good tab of this solo. One of the best solos of all time. solid playing, too

[@perdhapley]

I agree with everyone else. The format for how you are teaching these solos are excellent. Thanks for taking the time doing this.

[@thiethie]

Thanks for the encouragement. Much appreciated.

This is the best tutorial you just got another subscriber... Can I ask for any link of the tabs thanks

[@gilbertocapistran]

This was awesome. Thanks for the tutorial man!

[@xXSillasXx]

Awesome! Can You upload the backing track solo for us?

[@nicolasladouce]

awesome!

[@bijankhadembashi1016]

hey guys at 1:16 when he is hitting the crap out of the Bstring 15th fret. Where does that super gritty sound come from? what techniques/gear allow u to unlock this

[@bijankhadembashi1016]

i know about raking (not great at it myself) but i just cant see how a gritty sound would sustain from that

[@thiethie]

The overdrive pedal is doing most of the work there. It’s the fulldrive2. It has a lot of grit. Pair that with a good compression pedal, and I think you are good to go. Bonus points if you have the katana boost. The latter really cleans up the sound.

[@bijankhadembashi1016]

@@thiethie ah man, i've been wondering this for so long, i was just smashing my strings and turning on the overdrive of my little cube amp. I guess i should get a nice overdrive pedal, coz i'd like to develop the control to unleash the grittiness on demand. Thanks for the help!

[@xXSillasXx]

Can you post the backing track for this version of Gravity Live in L.A.? There isn't that on KZbin.

[@abellalia8540]

DUDE THANK YOU SO SO MUCH

[@THE______TRUTH]

Thank youuuuuu so much subscribed!!!!

[@sasmitha8446]

I love this man! Please do one for his performance of Gravity when he says that every note coming out of his guitar is dedicated to B. B. King! And on a totally different note, is learning solos from different people cheating? Dont you have to figure it out all by yourself? I love this man, but I can't help but wonder. Meant no disrespect at all man. Just wondering.

[@johnnyneves19]

great lesson layout man, really. And nice playing. In sector 5, I think instead of multiple bends in the inicial part you could just do 1 bend and faster vibrato while picking the note. Makes it sound more like JM, but you did better on the tutorial than on the actual cover video. Great job man, overall really good. Earned my like and subscribe, hope you get famous in KZbin, Surely you will, with such quality videos if you keep uploading them. Cheers! From Portugal ;)

[@thiethie]

+IQ they QQ You have a good eye and good ears! You are 100% right! I tried to follow JM's way of playing for the tutorial and I hope it's clear enough to be understood. But I personally cannot do that heavy vibrato while being on a full bend (It took me a lot of takes just for section 5 :) My finger muscles can't hold the pitch). So when I do play the solo, I take the more familiar normal bending route. But I appreciate your comment. Thanks for the support.

[@johnnyneves19]

+thiethie Hi thiethie, you're welcome. :) I figure string gauge change might help you out with that. I usually use .009/.042 strings and that bend isn't quite an issue. I mean by your overall guitar skill I can tell you can do that bend a lot better, and it's a key and beautiful part of the solo. I guess bend it normally and as you reach the full bend note upstrike it like you do and do a faster vibrato but a small one i mean don't go too low from the actual note :D You've made a great job anyways I'm not criticizing, pretty much everything else was on point

[@thiethie]

IQ they QQ I am already using 9/42 string gauge. haha. I have really weak fingers. But I am working on the proper "door handle" vibrato technique. I do appreciate your comment. I think that positive criticism helps everybody learn.

[@inthefray620]

This is fantastic. Thank you. Can you please tell me what pedal(s) you or/and John Mayer use?

[@ChenchenTian]

Can you make the backing track available? Fantastic tutorial.

[@thiethie]

ZTian hi. If you mean the backing track I used in my cover, then it is not a backing track. I used the audio from "Gravity - Live in LA - John Mayer Concert" and removed the mid frequencies from the EQ. Thanks for listening

[@ChenchenTian]

thiethie Yeah that's what I meant. Do you mind sending me the audio file you played with? Email: [e-mail]

[@whygeorgia3115]

Can someone enlighten me as to how he is getting the sound at 1:10 -- are they open? Palm muted? Something else? I can't seem to get it right.

[@thiethie]

why georgia the strummy part is basically open strings strumming. No palm muting.

[@tommyt8806]

Ever get a J.Mayer shout out? - he might just Say; Sha-Wow!! U, UR-Good- that took time to piece together man, and we have a winner! #payingit/Forward4sho; #JMJAMS Grr8T Job!!

[@hiems5647]

Does anyone have the tabs in one sheet

[@almntz94]

can someone please tell if what kind of soloing technique/style is that in 3:53 - 4:02 ?

[@thiethie]

+Alistair Mende that is my way of doing fast strumming. I basically connect my finger nail on an angle on the strings and "brush" on the strings. JM does it with a pick for more power. When I do it, my pick gets stuck in between strings and it doesn't sound as good. But I also believe that it depends if you are in a live setting. If so I would do as JM does and go full power strum. Hope this answers your question.

[@KudosCultureCartel]

2:50

[@jahanzebkhan3938]

can i get a tab for the clean part of the solo too??

[@zachepps8628]

What overdrive are you using? Beautiful tone.

[@MrKiammi]

I think he is using amplitude he has earliere posted some John mayer tone youtube videos

[@pineapplejam8988]

can u give the backing track to this song........please.....

[@OnSugarHill]

Hey, excellent work on this! Really love the layout. I do have one correction though. On Section 5 in the "fast strumming" section, you put a B and D note (3 4), but it's really outlining a G7 chord, so he's playing the 5th and flat 7th, so it's actually D and F (7 on G string, 6th on B string) and it leads up chromatically into the C chord (8-9 on B-G). You can actually see it clearly in the video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fKCXaGdsjb-arZom6s

[@thiethie]

+OnSugarHill very good point. you are right. Ironically I didn't watch the video when I was transcribing the solo. I usually just rely on my ears. But thanks for the correction, and thanks also for watching.

[@AmitxNaor]

any chance to elaborate more on the veey fast strumming part ? im trying to understand that technique but there arent lessons anywhere

[@thiethie]

What I do is I use the tip of my middle finger to graze over the strings. And use a wrist action to get speed for strumming. This method compared to using the pick means that I get a softer and more constant volume throughout the strumming. For the wrist action, it's best to relax your wrist, and do a "queen's wave" type of movement. Just imagine the queen waving it that makes sense.. Hope that helps you. Thanks for watching

[@AmitxNaor]

youre the beat man

[@naordror7923]

looking back at this I have made no progress with it whatsoever ,the tip of my finger doesnt draw enough volume from the instrument , meaning i can do it but its barely makes enough sound

[@Wiithepeople097]

You are no amateur my friend

[@emilianogonzalez5973]

which effect are you used ?

[@thiethie]

+Emiliano Gonzalez I am using a mix of software and real gear Software: amplitube with fender reverb amp mod, vintage compressor, stomp compressor, reverb, delays, slap back delays, EQ. The EQ is - high mids, low lows. But it depends on the specific song. Hardware: Overdrive Pedal- Fulltone Fulldrive 2 Mosfet. Guitar: Fender strat MIM, stock pickups Hope it helps :)
