SAID NOONE EVER! You have a personal issue with him. He is special because he isn't just a good pop guitarist he is a great POP guitarist, Blues, jazz etc etc etc. You personal feelings for him cloud your opinion of him as a player. Clapton thinks he is a great Player and so do most people who pay attention. Is he Steve Vie? No because he doesn't want to be. Vie is great but personally I don't like that (How many notes can you play in a second, How many scales do you know) crap. Id rather listen to 1 BB King note than a hundred Yingyang Malestersteen!!! Again nothing wrong with Shredding but it is not itself the pinnacle of guitar goddom!!

Tyler I'm not into shredders as much as you may think..Mayer in my opinion is just lucky to be where he is....it's not that he can't play. it's he's not a guitar hero...and people act like he's hendrix, Jimmy page evh..it's not like anyone is ever going to say...man....love your playing. you sound like John Mayer?!!?. he dosent have that....that's reserved for heros. which he just isnt.

He speaks much more intelligibly than most people, and everything he says is valuable. He doesn't repeat himself, he doesn't get side-tracked unless it's completely relevant, and he just has a wealth of knowledge and wisdom to convey. I appreciate him a lot as a musician and a teacher.

How many people know that John's teacher was Al Ferrante in Fairfield CT .Al is the nicest guy you could ever meet. He started his career playing for Edger Winter, Johnny Winters brother. I have known Al for over 35 years and he just gets better. For reasons I will never understand why he is more well known. He has played with so many great bands but go to his Facebook page and see who he plays with. I owned a Guitar store called Guitars Unlimited about a half mile from AL's store. He never gets the credit he deserves. You go AL !!!

What people don’t realize is that when Mayer is rambling on while speaking it’s because he’s trying to present the point he’s making but he tends to, not be to quite grasp exactly how to explain it. For example he does the exact same thing with his guitar playing trying to play the write thing he’s hearing in his head to end the solo.

What a dumb question!! As a female guitarist, what advice do you have for me? John Mayer: "There is no good answer to that."

There are certain challenges unique to women when entering a "boys club" such as rock n roll and the recording industry. Someone with experience in the industry might be able to provide some insight and advice. So stop dissing my homie Mary Spender. She's awesome.

A lot of women can play guitar as good as many of the men, if not better. I think they spent too much time on the question, IMHO, shoudn't have even been a question asked. Nancy Wilson is one, Joan Jett was pretty darn good and Orianthi is yet another one if name dropping matters. Are women more inclined to play acoustic vs electric ? That would really blow the boobs theory out of the water with those dreadnought shaped & sized acoustic guitars. Some of the posts here are about body differences ? Small hands, breasts and whatever other differentiation that anyone has to overcome. I mean really, small hands ? If the hands are so small, why can't I as a male play the guitar as well as a good number of the women that play guitar ? If their breasts are in the way ? My chest measure is easily larger than most women's bust measures after they get implants. Have you ever seen the moobs on a 300+ lb bass player ? Even the guys at the night clubs that go that big are better guitar players than I am. This is a game of dedication & talent, it doesn't come easy. My advice for any female guitarist, do it because you are passionate about playing the guitar the best that anyone, regardless of gender & race ever has. If you don't put the time into it, there still is a matter of having the skills & talent. Everyone has some level in them. Not everyone is as successful as another and that goes beyond gender & race. Vocals, same thing there.

@@jimcamp2423 dude, did you even read what I wrote? No one's said that due to these body differences women can't play guitar as well as men. I'm saying that a lot could still be made to get more women playing guitar, both on the marketing side and making their playing more efficient and comfortable. Given enough time you can adapt to anything. A lefty can play on a right handed guitar given enough time and dedication, but they still sell left handed guitars, don't they?
