Transitioning chords with hammer ins and slides has always been a favorite of mine. So much more expressive than just moving the whole wrist or fingers to a new chord. A personal favorite of mine is to play a suspended chord and turning it into a minor chord by hammering on the middle finger on the b string when you play those barre chords with the root on the A string
The hammer-ons and pull offs are what gave Hendrix his emotion. And I don't think greats like Steve Cropper or Nile Rodgers ever played more than three notes at a time. Most of the time just two. I learned what Cropper actually did on "Dock of the Bay", and it's so inventive. No bar chords at all on the verse or chorus.
Super cool, kind of like Jimi Hendrix style, breaking up the chords and interweaving the scale notes. Fun tip that C riff at the start is basically a C6 chord :)
Loving this Tony. Makes such a difference getting those base notes in. Fantastic explanation of how its put together too, really helpful. As always, thanks for sharing.
This is a the typical R & B double stop progression riff used in many, many songs long before John Mayer was even born. Guys like Curtis Mayfield, Steve Cropper. The technique is also used in country music as well.
@@jimmy5634 Indeed. While I really enjoy John Mayer as a young, jazz enthusiast/disciple, there isn’t that much new in what he does. Nonetheless, it’s still very good.
Nice tutorial ! one question: i think yiu pkay a C with your thumb on the bass string for the first chord, is thst right ? i think that would make it a CMaj7 (For a Em you should play a B, right ? ) So then it becomes a basic (but very nice sounding ;)) turn around from C to G :)

Nice use of triads 👍🏻

I know my triads and the inversions but this video helps put it all together. Thanks!

Very nice. Very much a riff on Slow Dancing in a Burning Room. Sounds very clean. As always, lots of great ideas to play around with.
Thanks a lot! Slow Dancing in a Burning Room is such a vibe!

@@jimmy5634 No doubt. John Mayer isn’t making up anything new. But this riff reminded me most of Slow Dancing in a Burning Room.

That chord progression has been used for decades. Em to C to G.
Yeah well he didnt say he just made it up did he?
Thank you for clarifying what he says in the title.
Only DECADES? NOT CENTURIES?
I don't know. I'm not Dracula.
@@christopherbakoyou don’t need to be, just study music.
why do you spend so ,uch time teaching people how to shake the guitar neck up and down
Because I’m cool
Why do you waste time picking at nits? If you have nothing constructive to say,say nothing … Even you might be happier.😊

Because many new guitar players don’t know this important technique. 🙄
Why don’t you learn punctuation?
It’s called some vibrato look it up bud
