Oh I think that's entirely dependant on which style he chooses to play but he's certainly capable of about anything you'd ever want out of a guitar. Like Clapton's high praise of John - "He's extremely gifted..his facility is phenomenal".
I know John is trying to sell some guitars but I really miss when the black strat was his go-to. That is an inimitable fender tone. The silver skies are an ergonomic dream but just don't jingle and growl as good as an old strat.
see now that’s a crowd of people who know what mayer’s excellent at. completely silent for that masterful solo. and they cheer when he comes back into the chorus, not for the vocals, for that beautiful improvisation.
He never impressed me, really no guitar player ever impressed me cause you can look up "great guitar solos by 6 year olds" and a bunch come up so the instrument is not that hard. Try looking up great trombone solos or French horn solos by 5 year old and not much come up.
This the dumbest shit I've ever read. Noone gives a shit about trombone. Noone ever made the cover of magazines or sold put stadiums playing the trombone. The guitar is a more popular and dynamic instrument. What an idiot 🤣🤣

![John Mayer - Gravity [SRV Solo Style]](/img/tr.png)
Mayer's songs are like he's a backup singer for his guitar.
Well put!
John Mayer is definitely not a shreeder. He`s a breather... He lets the silences breathe between the notes...
Flávio Castro not that he's not capable of shredding.
Lol watch his Live version of gravity in LA
I've seen John shred on many occasions. I do prefer his bluesy playing the best. I can listen to that for hours.

@@agastyeet8362 Watch his live version of Vodoo Child (Slight Return)
This is definitely the performance from where pilky27 was inspired to make his Gravity cover.
Pilky27 is john mayer
@@arpitadutta4073 He's joking, of course.

Absolutely true
L
Fender is more punchy, but damn silver skies are like an empty canvas ready to be painted, they are so versatile
he still uses a strat sometimes when he’s playing live
@@tengiz911 a
i love watching all his gravity performances
Live in L.A. is the best version ever!
Yeah straight magic. It's the song that the Strat was made to play. I still listen to that version multiple times a week.
Gravity SRV version is my personal favorite.
Honest to to himself....71 and love his music as it is from his heart and soul

A one life time experience.. Such a personal and intimate performance
Probably those people will never forget that day
Love the vocals in this version!
I always am amazed at John Mayer's talent, especially knowing he wrote this song which has become a very well recognized anthem of sorts...Go Huskies!
JImi Hendrix wrote it but yes I honestly love this version better
@@AlonCooperMusic please tell me you are joking
@@charliecoons3346 obviously he is joking
@@AlonCooperMusicwhat
I've watched this probably 50+ times. No lies.
John Mayer Please come to South Africa man we need your sound. I like this song " Waiting on the world to change
Damn... those dynamics on his first solo!
This is absolutely one of the best of his performances, less is more types 🤩👏🏼
This is my favorite live performance from him
Neon for me, this is good too.
th-cam.com/video/bc7BaZePyaE/w-d-xo.html This is so good, you’ll change your mind

Master of the CAGED system!
Wow
Agung Wirasatya would love to know what you think of my 16 year old grandsons live cover of this th-cam.com/video/vJpbRjMEMIQ/w-d-xo.html
If morning Coffee could sing it would sound like this🤣
Dam that’s a nice strat
google youtube to mp3 its as easy as that
I removed the paint from my strat and play it with just a thin coat of nitro. HUGE tone difference to me.
Do you have a link where I can download this to iPod.
Austin Brady I feel like im a time traveler 😂
Who's gonna tell him about the future?
damn
Hahahaha
Lmaoo IPods really existed bro
This performance reminds me of Jeff Buckley live at Sin-é
I am
Such a great guitarist and songwriter. His singing is mediocre but that’s not a problem.
Steavie ray Vaughn vibes
what is he said in 4:11?
He says " I lost the one on the looper" . Meaning he didnt record the first note on looper pedal
He's got that elite forced hair cut. Next it'll be blonde for a while
what do you mean by elite forced hair cut?
@@liammorgan4743 Probably the elite "force". Elite forced means nothing.
Aw man not John!! I’m grieving over Kanye
If he learns to play guitar, he just may be the next Stevie Ray
Wish i hadn’t read this
@@wingerman4677 I wish you well
@@bodarville862 you too babe
Hes clearly lip sinking
Lol?
High iq joke
@@justintime9793 thank you...no ones ever called me that before
@@baldinwallyTV most welcome sir 😉
If he didn't sing I would actually listen to his music
okay
He never impressed me, really no guitar player ever impressed me cause you can look up "great guitar solos by 6 year olds" and a bunch come up so the instrument is not that hard. Try looking up great trombone solos or French horn solos by 5 year old and not much come up.
this is the dumbest comment i've ever seen on the internet
Idk man i find it pretty to play guitar and having it sound like John Mayer or Jimi Hendrix
You don't have a ear for music or a soul then
This the dumbest shit I've ever read. Noone gives a shit about trombone. Noone ever made the cover of magazines or sold put stadiums playing the trombone. The guitar is a more popular and dynamic instrument. What an idiot 🤣🤣
He is not a songwriter , sorry
emollme HA yeah right!
Lol okay
And you are right? Gtfoh
"I am" - John Mayer
If he isn't, who is?
