John Mayer Plays " Stevie Ray Vaughan" Style Live On Instagram 2018

[@willmeng4251]

I knew John Mayer was a master guitarist but I didn’t realize he’s also a magician. Hiding the pick in his hand and switching back and forth just blew my mind

[@scottdurrant90]

"its alright to mess up because you don't know where you are anyway so have fun with it" is actually brilliant advice especially for beginners who get discouraged after a day of playing guitar

[@unugeorge]

it's also a great life advice

[@chilidog73]

Right on! It's when you mess up that the best chops are learned, in guitar and life. 👍

[@allrightthen.6225]

Spicy Noodles 100 % you have to *€%= up to learn. Style comes with a comfort zone or what your brain tells you to look in that direction. I'm lucky. Every direction is wonderful to me. Funky Fridays, etc. I forgot manic Mondays i wish it was a chocolate Sunday.

[@smokesgtp]

I'm at that point a couple weeks in. I've learned 9 or 10 common chords well but still struggling w some transitions enough that playing any real songs is not in the cards yet... keeping at it

[@BijahD]

John clearly has a passion for teaching - you can tell he loves to teach as much as play. Great to watch him doing what he loves.

[@CasperNuada]

When someone's playing is making you restless, that's a masterclass. His sense of rhythm is extraordinary!

[@GeekTherapyRadio]

John Mayer teaches blues technique from inside his fish tank.

‘I’m not doing it right but I’m onto something’ great life advice

[@danno9608]

The story goes JM was "discovered" whilst performing SRV covers. His technical style, range of techniques, and depth of scales and phrasing cannot be disputed. He really is one of the finest players from the last 2 decades. The mere fact that he landed the gig with Dead and Company speaks volumes about his level of respect as a master in the industry. Like his music (or personality or anything else) or not, the talent is undeniably strong in this one, Luke.

[@tpadgett2]

Maybe the most underrated right hand in all of the guitar world.

[@JordansTake35]

Todd Padgett John's right hand is nearly right up there with tommy emmanuel if you ask me.

[@Kimock7Autism]

I no longer would call anything Mayer does anymore as "underrated". That may have been true 10 years ago, but not now.

[@robertkrista5551]

uhhhh... dude they play completely different styles... there is nooooooooooooooooooooo way john mayer could play with the proficiently of tommy emmanuel unless he changed his entire style and focused on just that for a while. naturally he would be able to do it but to say he's already at that level, i dunno mang! its a big statement

[@Pharoahsim]

Most people never even heard of the best players... John ain’t one of em’ But check this guy. You may, or may not like... at 4:48 he jumps off the planet. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqHdfYeAlJ6nrcU

[@laurenkelley3074]

most underrated and forgotten guitar player plus not to mention the absolute best guitar player in history, Shawn Lane. Mayer is good too though. For his niche he is by far the best.

[@fellitaatmadjaja1669]

his rhythm is just insane

[@collinjamesguitar]

John absolutely idolized and loves Charlie Hunter (for good reason). That is where a lot of it comes from. If you watch Charlie, you’ll go “Ohhhhh so THAT is where stuff like Neon and a lot of his rhythm shit came from” John is the fucking man.

[@jaramemitchell6383]

Its pretty cool to see a guy like this who had been doing it for so long at such a level to see that he's just a guy who still gets excited playing the guitar... Neat stuff!

[@winslowwong9719]

When he plays it always sounds like there are 2 guitars going. Incredible

[@joshjenkinson1929]

[@WhiteRaven___]

Is you want to see mind blowing look up Tommy Emmanuel. Hes like chet akins but less technical and more creative

[@BollocksUtwat]

@@enzog1078 That's not quite the thing he tells people not to do. That's his percussive acoustic thing. And if he hated people doing this why would he try to teach everyone in 2018?

[@haywoodwardiii4686]

I'm pretty sure he's just tapping his foot

[@mrfester42]

Right here is the perfect illustration of what it means to by a great musician or artist rather than a technician. There are millions of people who sincerely enjoy music but of those, not many who know the difference between a player and an artist. I've been a music junkie ever since I saw the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1964 on TV... which should give you a feel for my age. For example, I'm still not convinced that Joe Bonamassa is a great guitarist. He sure as hell has chops to die for but no matter how many times I listen to him play, I'm never moved. I'm impressed as hell at his athletic ability on the fret board but his playing just doesn't take me out of myself yet I'm constantly reading comments here on KZbin about what a great guitarist he is. In my opinion those comments come from people who love music and are impressed with his skill, mistaking it for artistry. It's easy to mistake the two attributes but they are not thye same thing. As for John Mayer, he's got great chops as well. They're the chops that any amateur wannabe guitarist and a lot of pros would die for but they simply don't approach those of Bonamassa. Despite that, Mayer has what Bonamassa doesn't have and that's soul. He has the heart of an artist and he has it in spades over Joe B. When Mayer gets into it he can make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up and he does it with ease. Joe B. has never done that for me. I've been to countless concerts in my life from 1969 to the present and Mayer is on my list to see because I haven't seen him live yet. The fact is that the older I get the less interested I am in fretboard gymnastics and fast playing. Don't get me wrong, when it's done right it moves me but that is NOT what makes a great artist on the guitar. If you are moved when listening to B.B. King then you know what an artist is. If he doesn't get to you than you know diddly about what it means to be an artist on guitar. I don't generally get into arguments about who's a better guitar player and all that nonsense but before watching this video I watched a Joe B. video so I felt compelled to make the point after reading all the nonsense about Joe B. Joe Bonamassa is a damn good guitarist but John Mayer is an artist on the instrument and as far as I'm concerned the difference is like night and day.

[@Bob-hz6fp]

mrfester42 well, that's just your opinion.

[@pwedza]

mrfester42 Mayer is a lot of fun. saw him last summer and he improved a whole song riffing off a poster a girl was holding up. next level stuff..

[@shovelhead7821]

That is by far the most accurate statement I've ever heard in my life ,regarding this topic !

[@mrfester42]

Al Fattah Fajar S I'll bet that you're relatively young. I'm not insulting you because of your age but if you're a music lover, the older you get the more you'll realize that what I've said is true. Speed and agility on the guitar has nothing to do with a musicians ability to connect with an audience on an emotional level. Enjoying and being impressed by a player who can play fast and accurately is NOT the same thing as connecting with a musician emotionally no more than being impressed by someone who speaks fluently and eloquently about something you don't have in common with the speaker is the same as someone speaking to you about something you have experienced yourself. This is NOT opinion. It's a fact. YOU can't separate the feeling of awe from the feeling of identification or commiseration. They are NOT the same thing. Only life experience and emotional maturity teaches one to understand the difference.

[@shovelhead7821]

mrfester42 I was completely agreeing with you .

[@jocro1029]

One of the best right hands, lots of hours into that technique!

[@charlesdetmar1571]

JM played a show in my college town in Boone, NC @ App State, this would have been around 2001 right before he hit it big. We hung around and spoke with him for a few mins after the show and he showed me his SRV tattoo on his shoulder. Needless to say it was cool back then, but looking back it is even cooler. I have the ticket stub signed from him that night.

[@waywardshaman]

Awesome. I started at App in '03, so I missed that. Where did he play?

[@jonbarwick5946]

Man I just vacationed down there before I began my move up to CT for work! Boone Bagelry’s pizza bagel... talk about otherworldly. But you lucked out on that one for sure!

[@rmabe85]

It is so refreshing to see someone of his renown and celebrity to do something like this. He's such a phenomenal player and writer, but he doesn't do these streams to brag or to be a show-off. It seems like he genuinely loves playing and wants to help others do the same thing.

[@Nick-kb2jc]

All I want in life is to be able to play that Queen of California groove starting at 2:09

[@jocallaghan]

I feel the same way! Any luck finding a tutorial on this?

[@Noodleson]

I've been trying to get this, it seems impossible even with my guitar tutors help. Doesn't help that the video is blurry, I still can't work out how to do this! Do you know of any resources which break this down clearly? I have slowed down the audio but still no luck!

I never really listened to John Mayer growing up and didn't think about him when it came to guitarist. But once I saw videos like this, saw him really play I was blown away. He is legit one of the best guitarists around right now. His skill and honesty and ability to jump into so many different styles, styles I would never have expected from his music is just incredible.

[@norrismantooth3]

I watched this live. So happy I got to witness history.

[@jamesdeininger3759]

I’ve been listening to JM and covering his songs for over 20 years, and that pick-hiding technique absolutely blew my mind 🤯

[@TGregers]

I can listen to that blues cycle for hours, and still get impressed. John is a legend. No doubt

[@Kimock7Autism]

he's about a billion times better than any guitar teacher I've ever seen anytime anywhere

[@8o8g91]

Kimock7 Cause he's a true master and really knows the inner and outer workings of it to the smallest details. Sometimes I just gotta remind myself how good he really is.

[@noworries12]

thats why he is famous...

[@JohyeahM]

Yep...still not quite as good as Guthrie Govan...but who is??

[@bonnivilleblackcherry9745]

He is as good. Different style is all. All the greats had very few in the same time frame playing their style and thats why they are known as the greats. I see Mayor on more list of current greats than I do Govan. It doesn't take away that Govan will be known as one of the greats though. I Love Brian Setzer and he is known as one of the greats. But when he was active there were few playing the rockabilly sound. If he had more competition maybe he would not be on any list. Sadly in 30-40 yrs Justin beiber will probably be on some list of greats and that rihanna chick. The greatest thing about her is she is hot as fuck. Her music sucks though lol.

[@JohyeahM]

I was talking in terms of teaching methods more than playing in general.

[@RobbieLeffel]

Hey John, it is so refreshing to see an artist like yourself that is secure enough as a person to share your knowledge and talents with other wannabe's. I've come across some real primadonna's in my days of playing and in life in general, that hide their licks and tricks as if in a competition... I get as much joy out of sharing my knowledge if not more then feeling the need to be on top... as if one can be anyway. You are and have been an inspiration to me and anyone who is smart enough to shut their pie hole and listen for once. You seem to have a great philosophical insight to life in general, more so then most. The fact that you put it to music and share it with those who get it, it's just our lucky day. Thank you man... Wish we could hang!

[@Danjk100]

He’s such an underrated guitar player. He’s probably one of the best of a generation but he’s smart enough to know the buildings to make tons of money in the pop Genre but then to switch over to real technical and talented genres

[@SaartjeandRufus]

Id say he is doing blues a great service by put it on the map again through pop music. His albums sound always poppier and his live concerts bluesier. The pop people come to his gigs and get in touch with the blues again and get blown away by his blues skills and guitar skills in general. Live in LA is a great example with for instance slow dancing and gravity. When he goes all out in the solo s you hear his greatest idol back in his playing which is of course SRV. Probably the guitar lovers all know this but still i needed to ventilate this 😉

[@SL-vk3bi]

He is the best guitarist in the era. But I think he underrated famous in worldwide. He should famous than ed sheeran.

Just how else could one man have it all in one package 😂

[@ethanbyrne6462]

When I first heard John Mayer's music I never would've guessed he could play like he can. When he plays the Blues he's got such a tasty list of licks. I've "borrowed" more than a few licks from him. He mixes major and minor and uses mixolydian as well as anyone I've heard.

[@ElectricOrganBand]

No matter what you say about John, he's the pure gold while given the guitar. He knows his chords, knows the scales, knows how to groove and a lot about going there from zero to hero. To me everything that he releases is top notch. Even that poppy sounding stuff that I don't like. Wish I was that creative and talented.

Amazing lesson, that i as starting out on drums can relate to very well!

[@aiden4109]

ive started to take guitar as a way of singing rather than learning from others and licks online. do like an "a" shuffle and imagine the guitar as a voice. it opens up like a new world because your imagining your guitar as a voice opening up new creations of licks that no where else would teach you.

[@donnadoble-brown338]

He sure does make it look easy . . . . I remember the first time I saw him LIVE and he blew me away with his guitar playing . .. I always had to defend being a fan of his back then (I was much older with teenage kids!) but I saw something then that I knew was special and was way beyond the “pop star” label he was getting . . . No disrespect to any pop stars out there . . .. it’s just John is much deeper than that musically I felt💗

[@kungstu22]

Watching a titan like Mayer think out loud and let us see his creative process is just like ours (but with slightly different results!). I could watch this all day. What a great guy. Pick! No pick! My jaw dropped a little.

[@nmnsaimemark1842]

Yep! This is someone way more talented than us, who listened to this music and watched technique as much as we should have when we learned these songs off the records and more recently you tube. Thank you Mr. Mayer for this post. It took me 20 years to realize the SRV circle technique while slogging through jobs to pay bills, and I still can't do it right. I just learned the notes and missed the forest for the trees. My version of Pride and Joy impresses my friends and some folks at bars, but still sux. The joy is in the journey.

Ive only been a guitar player for the past 4 yrs but even when i was a kid and this guy first blew up i could tell this man had great skills when it came to his guitar.

Mayer just oozes feel and soul and I could listen to him all day long while with Joe Bonamassa there's just something contrived about his playing that leaves me flat.

[@passattdise]

I hear ya, exactly... what you're saying.... I've seen JM play live 7 x, and I've gone to 1 Bonamassa live show. Joe's playing, to me, sounds like absolutely sterile perfection. John's playing, to me, has that human touch, notes not quite bent to perfection, yet you know John plays it that way on purpose. John doesn't need to be a speed demon on the fret board. Not when you choose and phrase the right notes together, added space between notes is a blessing.

[@mrfester42]

@@passattdise The only issue I have with what you're saying is when you say that his notes aren't bent to perfection and he plays it that way on purpose. I would bet a years pay that he does NOT do that on purpose. It's a tiny little thing that he doesn't do perfectly and he knows damn well that it's simply not important. I'm sure he tries to get it perfect but his focus is on playing a whole piece well and NOT getting every "I" dotted and every "T" crossed. If he doesn't bend a note perfectly I'll bet he just doesn't give a damn.

Notice the ad pops up right in the middle of the screen and blocks Mayer's playing, thus prompting everyone to X it out asap.
