[@cjsmith8319]

This will be a roadmap for a lot of guitarists who want to unlock their inner Mayer! Masterful analysis!

[@elidarnell8007]

great vid, one of these on his playing with dead & co. would be sick. he breaks a lot of these habits frequently with those guys

[@remij1992]

i agreee! ill defenetly do some of his recent stuff as we go and explain how his plaing changed! stay tuned

[@bakman65]

Hey Remi ! It looks like Youre the ''inside man'' of John Mayer guitar style/playing;) glad that I found Your channel recently :))

[@remij1992]

glad to have you bro! more comiin

[@stephenmahlstedt7276]

Good stuff, man! I really like the idea of starting out in the lower range and then gradually building up to the higher pitch notes. I don’t have command of the entire fretboard just yet in order to do that effectively, but it certainly gives me something to work towards. Cheers!

[@remij1992]

it deffenetly gives a really cool dinamics to work up to, and a great ttrick to have in your bag if your ever stuck or don know how to approach a solo!

[@garynicolas9671]

Super!

[@jakobmorningstar]

Awesome video! Could you address how to he does those double stop pull off raking lines, and those descending pull off runs? Mine never sound as clean and clear and it’s a sound of his I love and is frustrating to try and replicate. You do it very well.

[@remij1992]

thanks bro ill deffenetly try to do a better job at explaining it! but it did take me alot of time practicing it to get it right

[@peterland001]

great stuff

thanks bro

You have an amazing sound ! What are you using for it ? A plug in ?

[@remij1992]

did you guys notice something he does that i missed? let me know!

[@cryptofox3570]

how about when he bends note then taps the second higher note

Amazing man! QQ: Is it better to use thumb and 2 fingers or a pick before we get too far along this path? TIA!

[@remij1992]

its good to try them both and see which one is more comfortable for you! for me the two fingers just give me that softer tone, and givs me more control for how punchy i want it to be, and with a pick i striggle with that, thats why i choose the fingers! hope this helps

[@gandalfg1479]

awesome video. Maybe you can also share your gear? pedals etc and how u achieve that sound with your fender :)

For the metronome would you just count the clicks as 1 and 3 or 1234? If that makes senses

A certain amount of this time have to be the tone setting on your guitar and treble

[@Neuropiphany]

Vai definitely Makes his songs breath e.g. for the love of god, bad horse, etc

[@redbar6366]

At 6' 45" you say Slow Dancing is "not in C minor" but you are actually playing C# minor which is the relative minor of E, the key you say the song is actually in. Good video though.

[@coalgravel]

He misspoke when he said C instead of C#, but what he was trying to say is correct. The song is in E major, not C# minor. Relative keys are not the same key per se, they just contain the same notes.

[@igorperic5232]

How do you approach transcribing chords or unusual beautiful voicings?
