Holy shit balls of Fire!!! I won tickets off the radio to see him live in Birmingham, Alabama in 2009 and he opened with this song. I’d been a fan, I had his Continuum CD and I liked his music. What an awakening I had when I saw him perform LIVE!!! I had NO idea what a fantastic guitar player he is.... I must have been living under a freaking rock lol. This video doesn’t even come close to showcasing his raw talent. If you ever get a chance to see him perform live, jump on it and I promise you will not be disappointed!!!
its a must, ive been to his concert in brazil in 2018 and its unbelieveable how amazing it sounds (specially the trio part), also hes an hall of famer performer and entertainer, imagine having 50.000 people that doesnt even speak your language in the palm of your hand...
Ele é simplesmente incrivel, hoje em dia com tanta porcaria sendo chamada de música é realmente boom ouvir John Mayer....Ele consegue fazer com que eu me desligue do mundo e esqueça tudo que não importa....Dá uma sensação muuito booaa EU AMO JOHN MAYER Eu e milhares de pessoas, adorariamos que ele viesse ao Brasil!!!
very tasty improvisation, I always have thought he should have let the solo section go on for a few more bars even in the original, here it was definately needed... its just not enough time to get the emotions out... great clip...
@MrJudgeSauter :) No maybe not. I'm thinking also thinking that his approach when singing the lyrics are Bono like (When i look at the World - U2 reminds). But it's enough for me to instantly thinking U2. It was not meant as to critisize him for being unoriginal or anything. My english is not that well so it's hard for me really to explain what i mean
It's John's guitar playing. The guitar is a Jeff Beck signature Strat which is setup for tuning stability when using the tremolo arm. the riff is two chords plucked, and then three smacks to the tremolo arm to give that almost drainpipe-like sound - you're hearing the reverberation of those whacks through the metal of the bridge and strings. Then delay is added to the whole thing to repeat the sound, and reverb to make it sound like it's in a big open space, but the quality of the sound itself isn't from crazy effects, you could get it pretty close with no effects at all.
all that fucking fancy sound equipment and they couldn't eliminate the springboard effect from the trem? typical shit production!! awesome performance of course!
@@JS-rp7qb I don't think it is. Just a delay. Most of the riff is just him playing the two notes, and then three whacks on the whammy bar. There doesn't seem to be anything there to be arpeggiated.
How does 2010 look like the 90's already?
australia is about 20 years behind on fashion
Crap video rendering
Welcome to Australia.
he knew that was the best solo to heartbreak warfare he's ever done.. you can see it when he hits that last note of the solo.
He's on fire here...and that guitar solo was note for note pretty much perfect!
3:16 even John was surprised that the lick on 3:03 had the notes spot on with the chord changes till the end of the solo
John Mayer delivered such a high quality performance as is his style. He’s spot on. Love it. Love him
3:15 He really loved his solo! hahahah
+ciriuns oh god he's like "ooh you like that?" hahahaha
HAhahaha, so true. :D
lol
Lots of hot celebs there that night, he was showing off lol
Man's a freakin' genius.
That solo is incredible. Great tone, very 'dark', don't know how to explain.
One of the most delicious solo done by him in this song
Oh damn, that hand motion on the guitar is so cool.
True
What do u mean? His whammy bar movements in the intro?
It's also taking advantage of the delay effect.

I love john mayer
John Mayer's voice is a gift
Tamo junto aqui no brasil parcero!!
very tasty improvisation, I always have thought he should have let the solo section go on for a few more bars even in the original, here it was definately needed... its just not enough time to get the emotions out... great clip...
Ooo La La! John Mayer rocks!
Good tune
John Mayer is there and the crowd is just sitting there like stewed prunes
if you want more love why dont you say soo...
how bloody killer is the guitar solo
i hear belief in his solo a little bit.. awesome
he is so cute!!!
0:35
amei
0 dislikes, says it all.
Cool
Its a Jeff Beck sig model Stratocaster
Brasil
@default1337 guitar, but it can easily be achieved with mxr carbon copy delay pedal or way huge aqua puss delay pedal. check out the demos for them ;)
This is such a difficult song to play live.
With David Ryan Harris! :-D So cool seeing Chrissie Swan and her girls singing along in the audience and loving it! :-D
@default1337
I think it's a combination of delay and whammybar
If you are talking about Johns, I believe its the John Mayer Signature Stratocaster by Fender. Pretty cool!!
Speachless...I think I turned gay for 5 minutes...
@MickUnheard Agreed!!!!!!!!!
3:14 for epic solo eyes.
Awesome. Could of mixed his voice a lot better though...
@shootthephoneco because Steve only drums inside the US, keith drums outside the US on tours etc.
He's looking a bit like Gabe from The office 😂
Since when did Keith Carlock tour with Mayer?
Indeed
=?Can anyone please tell me the name of that guitar?
@MrJudgeSauter :) No maybe not. I'm thinking also thinking that his approach when singing the lyrics are Bono like (When i look at the World - U2 reminds). But it's enough for me to instantly thinking U2. It was not meant as to critisize him for being unoriginal or anything.
My english is not that well so it's hard for me really to explain what i mean
Me too...it was the worst 5 minutes of my roommate's life! He'll learn to walk again...
Where are the tabs to this solo
Wouldn't that be 5:02? :-) great video and better song!
does the main riff come from a keyboard or his guitar with crazy effects?
It's just delay and the tremolo bar
It’s an Adrenalinn effects pedal with delay and tremolo
It's John's guitar playing. The guitar is a Jeff Beck signature Strat which is setup for tuning stability when using the tremolo arm. the riff is two chords plucked, and then three smacks to the tremolo arm to give that almost drainpipe-like sound - you're hearing the reverberation of those whacks through the metal of the bridge and strings.

@party1beast You know you're amazing when you have a US tour drummer and an everything other than US drummer lmao
lol too funny!
where do u hear punk in this song?
Very U2 like
Why isnt Jordon on the kit?
The sound engineer screwed the pooch on this one
Poor John, I think he was going under throat condition during that time.
thius
uhm he started playing 30 seconds in though....
He plays the intro which is two notes with the tremolo bar
sexy
once you go gay, you never go ...
since when did john turn punk?
I just turned gay for 5.02 minutes.. waaoow
no backup singers, on the heartbreak warfare part, so silent
been there done that did not work lol m
Gustavo Cerati vibes?
john's mic volume must turn up little bit. and his guitar volume is too loud and too overdrive/gain
i like him =>
weird huh ?? XD
not a great performance imo but i still love this song and battlestudies
all that fucking fancy sound equipment and they couldn't eliminate the springboard effect from the trem? typical shit production!! awesome performance of course!
Joey Silva A.K.A. Daddy!! He literally slaps the trem for the effect my dude 😂
Not to mention the entire riff is played through an arpeggiator
@@JS-rp7qb I don't think it is. Just a delay. Most of the riff is just him playing the two notes, and then three whacks on the whammy bar. There doesn't seem to be anything there to be arpeggiated.
Punk? Are you deaf and blind?
