Jukh
if your happy im happy
Marty Music do a video on across the universe by the beatles
I'm pretty close to the tone. Do you have any tips for getting the sound?
Marty Music, go Marty!
There's a funny story this song always reminds me of. A while ago, I was really into this girl. We went on a date, I'd cook for her and then we'd watch a movie, all at my place. I thought: every girl loves John Mayer, so if I'd play a John Mayer song for her, she'd probably be impressed. I started to study this song, I didn't know it was so hard to play. After six hours of non-stop studying, I finally got it right. I was pretty nervous when I played it, but it went perfect. At the end, she said: I appreciate it, but I really don't like John Mayer. 😅
Lol well there's a first for everything
The next one would love for sure, mate this story make me laugh aha
KJDJDH Gdhsj haha oh well man at least you tried
Probably you found the only girl that don't like him, hehehehe. Suggestion: Next time ask in advance what music she likes...
Never go full John Mayer dude.
How does someone come up with such a great riff like seriously wtf
Someone better than you or I bro 😂😂
to be honest he did not. he's got it from bob dylan. "bob dylan playing on draham & greg" last song
@@McDave1312 the chord progression is similar and in the same key, bob dylan doesn't play this riff at all whatsoever tho, it's just the underlying progression is the same, which could be said about 1000s of songs, everything is pagerised in that sense
Cristian Trejo Ask John Mayer
Just music theory and inspiration from past artist.
It's not a silly little Marty
It's not the storm before the calm
This is the deep and dyin' breath of
This guitar love we've been workin' on
Can't seem to hold it like I want to.
But he can do it with his arms.
He's gonna have to come and help me.
My thumbs is never far along
It’s going down
And Marty knows it playing it true
It’s going down
And he knows to play to tune
Alexander Winston this is hilarious!!!
*imitates guitar solo* bah bauuuu bauw bauw bauw bauw beeng beng beng bah bauu bau bau bau bauh bau bauuu
THIS IS THE FUNNIEST COMMENT THREAD IVE EVER SEEN HAHAHA
More john Mayer love to see that
Everything makes senses and then at 10:05 Marty says "If you take the parts that you've already learned..." and all of a sudden I feel like I learned something completely different from whatever it was that Marty learned. I have never been so lost.
He’s showing how if you take what you’ve learned, you can then go and turn it into something like what he was playing through the use of embellishments. He’s saying to take what he taught you, and make it your own. He’s not saying he taught you what to play what he played, he’s telling us to implement our own flavor and embellishments
He's playing licks that he taught you and his own embellishments in the c#minor scale. Look up the scale, you'll see that everything that he just taught you fits into that scale, and then you can play the other notes within it to get what you just saw marty do.
edit: fixed some mistakes
That's why I always cut them into segments and go thru every segment couple of times individually
That when you learn . the good stuff .
C# minor
That's a good song Marty, more Mayer is appreciated.
Definitely, my no. 1 artist by far!
Damn that's a sexy guitar
Definitely my favorite of his
Bohdan Ilasz Do you know what pickups he has in it? I have a MIM in the same colour with a matching headstock and love it.
@@voltagevillain7342 he has a video about his guitars, maybe he mentioned it. Look up "all Marty's guitars livestream" or something like that
@@voltagevillain7342 Since it looks to me like '62 reissue strat, it's possible that he's got 57/62 pickups set in it. But I'm just guessing.
@@zokkieRock4ever Thanks!
I've been watching Marty for so many years that I genuinely care how he's doing. Thanks through the years Marty. Wish I could shake your hand dude.
Marty is a top class teacher. Out of all the guitar tutorials on here he’s the only one who plays with any feel and offers the most accurate way of playing these songs. Through him I’ve learned Hendrix Clapton ac/dc and many others. Thank you for doing these
Factssss
Hey Marty I just wanted to thank you for doing a lesson on this song. My long term relationship just recently came to an end and learning and practicing this song helps me cope with the breakup a lot. Thanks for your incredible work!
Hope you're doing better with it all now! It will get a little easier every day :)
What you see on class 9:48, what the teacher puts on the test 10:08
every time:(
I almost exploded when i saw this part
It's easier than you think! With western scales you're more likely to hit a "right" note than a "wrong" one, so don't worry too much about which frets to add over a bar chord: just finger the bar chord then try hammeron/pulloff of any fret you can reach! Getting the pinky finger strong enough to flick strings while fingering the chords is the hardest part, and for that it doesn't matter how it sounds. Just start building up that pinky strength and you're well on your way to "embellishments over bar chords" town.
lmaoooo
@@b98a4c37 thank you
I really like this style of explanation with guidance now that I’m finally competent enough to follow what’s happening. It makes learning the grove so much easier than reading tabs. Thank you 🙏🏼
2:36 *scratches beard*
so dope
I just found my guitar I played as a sophomore in high school at my parents’ house and brought it to my apartment. I’m super rusty so I thought I’d check out some TH-cam tutorials. Marty you taught me how to play when I was 15 and now I’m 27 and you’re still teaching me stuff. You’re the absolute best man! Never stop.
its funny because every time i look up a song marty pops up, which is what i hope for because his tutorials are great
Haha. Exactly the same here 👍🏽
It’s disappointing when I search “Marty slow dancing” and I see you playing just the guitar.
Lol
10:20 is where you realize you’ve still got a lot to learn lmao
its where i give up
Slow it down and go piece by piece
That's basically just fu**ing around in the pentatonic.lol
@@alexgoia9530 sorry guitar master
Hendrix double stops
You are my teacher, my inspiration since 2nd yr high school when i was learning guitar. Until now i am working, i always view your tutorials. Thank you Sir Marty for these free videos
I’ve been trying to learn this song for so long, you simplified it more than any other sources. Rock on Marty!
Marty man, I just wanna thank you dude. You've been teaching me guitar since I was 14 and I'm 24 now. That's 10 years. Pretty much every song I know has been taught by you. Thanks a ton dude!
He joined TH-cam in 2016
@@hxrry8444 this is his old channel th-cam.com/channels/JgRMHrtQpnhKHdsGiFQRyQ.html
@@hxrry8444 he had another channel beforen
My dude! I just started learning this one YESTERDAY, perfect timing! I see some things here that I can improve upon in my approach. Thanks a ton, I really enjoy your playthrough lessons!
Blown away. Thank you so much for everything you’ve taught us
Marty, all guitar stores SHOULD PAY YOU!!!. You are the reason more people are playing guitar. You're the reason for the success of the Squier line. You make people want to play and those are the guitars people are buying. Dude I really hope you're making some good cheese. There are a couple other guys but you are THE TEACHER. I'm 9 years in. Started playing at 31. Now, I can sit with nearly anyone and at least be able to play along/hold my own. EVERYTHING I learned from you and millions of others. Thank you!!!!
I've been playing guitar for about a year now and I only watch you Marty your the only teacher i can learn from and I just learned this song and I've never been so happy in my life I really appreciate your videos man keep up the good work and rock on!!
You can play this after 1 year? Very impressive!
I started guitar like 4 months ago and I have just learned this wonderful riff by John Mayer, it made my day ! Thx Marty !
Amazing!! I'm starting today... After I played the video I decided to quit lol
TheLastJuiceBlender don’t quit John Mayer is going to be very difficult for a beginner. You got this!
That claw technique (with the thumb on the bass note) is essential for almost any JM song. Then... you will be able to play more of those Hendrix/SRV tunes as well. It took me a while to start feeling comfortable with it. I was always a clunky power chord player until I realized that this claw technique would allow me to play lead/rhythm so much easier. Highly recommend converting to it if you feel like your guitar playing has plateaued.
What a beautiful guitar
Hendrixism -- a moment when you realize it is time to put down the guitar
😂
you're weak then
Nah bro, it’s more like- time to realize you need to practice more into Guitar
😂😭
Just replay the moment you don't understand and eventualy it'll become pretty clear as to what is happening.
Marty... you're a stud. I haven't picked up the guitar in probably ten years. The last month I've been STUCK on your tutorials. I found the passion I use to have for this instrument again. I've never listened to a John Mayer song in my life and all of a sudden I'm spending hours trying to get this song down. Thanks dude. Hope your getting rewarded for the work you're doing. The least I can do is hit the subscribe button. RESPECT
This song is one of the favorite song of my buddy Nate who came from a Fkd up family and said this song reminded him of his life growing up with his parents. He felt like he was dancing in a burning room. When I realized why he played it all the time and he explained his backstory I realized the guy was deep. Seriously, hope you’re doing well-Nate.
Just holding the pick like that at 4.21 is a hell of a skill, just putting the pick away instantly
Yes Marty!!!! This is THE lesson!!
This song is way beyond my skill level.... very intimidating learning stuff like this and yellow ledbetter
its honestly not that bad.... as long as you dont have a cheap amazon guitar... barre chords on those are impossibly hard since the action is high.
All I wanted for Christmas was a Marty tutorial for John Mayer songs! love you MARTY! keep it up- greets from Germany
I'm so glad you taught this one!! It has a great melody to it and It's fun to solo over. I'm going to start out more beginner style, then add in the Hendrix'y stuff as I get more comfortable. Those tricks are a lot to take in all at once! I can always review this video for a refresher. That's why TH-cam lessons are so great. Thanks Marty!
my gosh that strat sounds so good
Marty please do “Stop this train” by him I’m begging you brotha. You’re by far the only person I’d want to learn it from, thanks my man 🤙🏻
Some serious right hand technique stuff in there, lot of work to do for most guitarists!!
YES MARTY!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!! I LOVE THIS SONG DUDE!!!!!!! LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
If people are struggling to get that beginning part where marty goes from pick to finger picking- i know it’s hard for me to tuck the pick away and get it back without fumbling it- you can keep the pick and instead of finger picking- pick the fatter string with the pick while at the same time using your middle finger to pluck the next string. Sort of an intro to hybrid picking. It’s actually really easy to practice picking one string with you pick while plucking the next string under it with your middle finger. What helps me is to set your middle fingertip against the string for a second before you pluck it. Now when you are trying to play triads you can add your ring finger to the next string as well, and pluck all 3 strings of a triad at the same time. It sounds a lot better than strumming down 3 strings for a triad, because triads work best when the 3 notes are played at the same time.
Btw thanks Marty, and I know you know this stuff- just putting it out there for those who don’t
You rock brotha. I love this song, been writing songs my whole life and even had the chance to play in front of thousands of people a few times. I could never quite figure out the live version he plays, your breakdown is on point and filled in the 30% gap that I just couldnt figure out. Thank you. Liked and Subscribed :)
What a beautiful Strat!!
Could you do a tutorial on why georgia by John Mayer?
I still come to you all these years later brother. Marty you are the godfather of TH-cam guitar. Always ohelping us to PLAY NOW and never gate keeping!
WOOOHOOOO! Been wanting this one!
i so love this song. one of my all time favorites.
You're going over the easy part hundred times but the hard part you just skip through. Love your vids
It ain t that hard, the basic song with no embelishments it s verry easy.
I don't know why I resisted listening to John Mayer for so long, I mean I likes some of his early stuff and collaborations but then was turned off and thinking back can't tell you why?!? Now I'm listening more and more to his stuff again and really feel inspired to play his stuff.
If you're having trouble using your first and ring on that high part, use your first and middle, it's made it a lot easier for me.
It makes it 10x easier
Nice job! I can play many songs that I just couldn't figure out cause you. Know that you have inspired and educated many. Hats off to you brother.
I’ve been learning from this guy since 2012 😮
You obviously connect with this song. Great demo.
Monday Blues, I get it.
Thank you Marty 🫡
All I need is to go from pick to finger picking with out dropping the FING pick 😂
And then getting it back out of your hand for picking again!
I felt that 🤣🤣
Just hybrid pick
That's why for this song i just purposely drop my after the first muted string part and after that just finger pick. I couldn't get the pick back in my hand in time.
FACTS :-(
My fav teacher, thank u hommie for all your lessons , love you !! Good vibes for you
great Marty! More mayer and SRV!
First of all: Thank you for the great tutorial Marty.
Here is an easier version on how to play the song, with less usage of the left thumb. It does not change any notes you play, but for me it is a lot easier to play it like this. So here are a few tips:
In the beginning you can slide right into the C#m with in an regular bar chord shape.
When you play the little walk down: just play it on the d and g side. So after the slide you play:
11th fr. d and 9th fr. g,
then 9th fr. d and 8th fr. g,
then both 6th fr.,
lastly both on the 4th fret.
This is way easier and you end right in the position where you want to end for the next part. In this part you can play the open a string instead of using your thumb on the 5th fret of the e string. This way to avoid playing with your thumb can also be used later in the second part of the main riff.
Lastly just a little idea: At the end of the riff you could finish with an a-shaped e chord with base note on the 7th fret of the a string. This makes transitioning to the beginning of the riff easier and if you want you could spice it up with the high tone on the e string.
Nevertheless being able to play chords and riffs with your thumb on your top strings is useful, so you should consider practicing it.
Love the Hendrix-style vibe on this. :) I have problems doing the thumb over the E string and the F style chord. My fingers tend to get in the way and mute the higher strings.
FINALLY! The person I've been waiting for more than a year to upload this song!!
Brilliant video, it really helps.
Thanks Mary,don't know the song,but seem ta
Put together much of what you have taught us.
Great,great Monday lesson,or a two week lesson
For me.thank you for all the extra u do
You should do “Another kind of green” by John Mayer. It’s an extremely underrated song, but a very good one. Give it a listen if you haven’t
Great pick! I want to learn this tune, as well.
Yeah it’s super underrated with a vibrant Hendrix type playing style
Arya Yektafar I know and there aren’t too many good tutorials on it
Superb Marty. Thank you.
Seriously wondering who would dislike this video 😂, anyways would love to see a Neon by John Mayer tutorial!
Someone who couldn't learn the song, lol. That, or John Mayer's exes.
Yeah, the solo live version from Where the Light Is, is amazing
Are you joking ? There’s no point in him breaking down neon when 99% of players won’t be able to get anywhere near neon in a million years.
th-cam.com/video/E0_1oWQJ-a0/w-d-xo.html
Looks quite difficult to me...
Never heard neon played same way twice.
man you are just the best. followed you for year and years. thanks
I’ve never been so happy in life
Insane
Great lesson can you do black or Jeremy by Pearl Jam please
Another brilliant tutorial Maestro Marty ,
Awesome Marty ! Could you please do 'Who says' or 'Stop this train' by John Mayer next ? I think it would be also cool :)
Yes who says
@@thecolinthemac Paul Davids tuturial helped me out a lot with Mayers "finger-slapping technique"
Jakob Nordström yes I have watched that too and it was great, but I would love to see also Marty’s lesson on this
Thank you, Marty. You're a legend. Hands down best lessons on the Internet for learning songs.
Definitely learning this now
Just superb
I rlly want to try this out, I just need an electric guitar lol. Who knows, maybe I’ll get one soon.
You can play it on acoustic
@@yourdad3235 yea that’s what I have been doing, but, to me it’s just not the same lol.
You're a king, thanks!
Marty releasing a John Mayer song the day before the release of the new 2019 John Mayer guitars? Coincidence???? I think not!!
Really nice tone . Simple the way it should be
Marty I have things to do today, why would you do this to me. Now I have to stay in and learn this awesome lesson.
You are a legend marty !!!!!
Man that tone is just amazing!
The Strat sounds great 👍
is there anyway you could describe what pedals and filters you're using?
The soul I feel when I get into this song, diving into the what I would describe is the free will with the pentatonic.. could smell the ashes, roof falling in and I’m just in a stool in the cent of the room holding a strat.
Please do a lesson on John Mayer’s ain’t no sunshine cover.
Thanks Marty! I've been playing parts of this song for awhile but needed to piece it all together and this got me there! In the "going down" part I like to just play the B major and hammer on and off the sus4 for the whole B chord, it makes it sound good enough if you're the only one playing guitar. That's one of those parts that has to be in the song if you're going to play it.
Marty, been looking to find a solid tutorial/tab for this song all over. Nailed it buddy. Really captured the essence of the bluesy vibe leaving some room for interpretation. Two thumbs up!
Hey marty can you please do valleys of neptune by Jimi hendrix?
Ur The Man Brother...
I'm Just Starting...
Going 2 Start Taking Some Classes At The Guitar Center...
I Want 2 Learn This Song...
2:37 « frt frt frt »
Lovely work Marty . Your hard work paid off . Thanks
I know this was two years ago but can you tell me what pedals and amp you're using? Beautiful sounds
I have a Boss Katana and there are websites where you can download patches. I have a couple of Mayer sounds on there. Really awesome!!!
THANK YOU I've been wanting to learn this for forever and I got most of it down in one day thanks to you! I am not there yet with tempo and smooth transition but I'll keep practicing :)
I’m definitely not ready for this song but been actually waiting for you to do this lesson. What were your settings on the amp to get that sweet Strat sound?
Set your strat to neck pickup or the one next to it. Set the gain or overdrive up until you get a nice warm tone, but not too much fuzz. Add some reverb if you have it. You can also turn the tone knob on the strat to smooth out some of the highs a bit. That will get you most of the way there.
great video Marty, really helpful!!
10:11 is where the tutorial ended for me Marty scared me away with all that
It took me 3 days to get that part right , 🤣😂😂😂
just hammer one buddy you got it
Slow it WAY down and keep practicing. Once you can do it smoothly at a much slower tempo, increase the tempo a little bit, then a little bit more until you get it. 👍🏻
Marty your the shit..i love your amazing teacher brother
Such a wholesome guy, keep it up Marty
Can you do a tutorial on the song in too deep by sum 41
