  • Thanks to 89jakkis for pointing this version out. This tutorial is based of the acoustic version of Belief found here:

    This tutorial goes into a lot of detail and may be slow for some. It has the Intro/verse, chorus, pre-chorus, awesome solo part, a link to a PDF of my tab as well as onscreen TAB in the video itself.
    Guitar TAB PDF here: bit.ly/Belief-TAB
    The TAB is of the performance, occasionally the video instruction differs due to the fact that Mayer changes up a lot on the fly. Some of these bits are explained in the tutorial.
    Enjoy.

    Thanks for the video, your tutorials are always great! For the intro: I was wondering why you suggest swapping from 4th finger to 3rd finger for minor and major chords respectively? Is there a reason you can't just use the 3rd finger for both and avoid switching? Apologies if you answer this later or someone has already asked this!

    • @Zartimus
      @Zartimus  9 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Kiron Koshy I don't recall exactly why at this moment (if you give me a timestamp I could tell you) but it would be either because Mayer and his giant monkey fingers do it that way, or it leaves you open to the next fingering in an easier manner. In the end if you can make the chord transitions sound good and on time, whatever way you choose works the best for you is fine and good.

    I think I know what you mean. I've modified my recording techniques since this one.

  • @Zartimus
    @Zartimus  11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'm well aware of that. I say it in the video do I not? If I was re-doing it today I'd do so with a pick but back then I was still in the everything with the fingers mindset. Now I'm hip to the best of both worlds.

    Best tutorial ! And mainly, you're the only man to make tutorial of special version song of John Mayer like this, "Belief" acoustic! Or "Your body is wonderland" grammy version.. Or Clarity VHO sessions.. again :)
    Obviously don't stop your vids.

    Hey, totally right on the Csus2. He's barring it with his 1st finger and that is just a pinky flail I mistook for a fretting. That explains why he's fretting the C with his 2nd finger (I though he was having a Paul Gilbert moment). Good call on the vibrato too. I'll see about posting an annotation and fixing the tab.
    Thanks! Good feedback (but I disagree with the pick VS fingers. It can be done)

  • @Zartimus
    @Zartimus  11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I added an annotation for a change in fingering in the chorus. Same notes different fingering. It's at 14:30 or so.
    Cheers!

    In terms of John's picking version, do you know what technique he's using to mute? Is he palm muting every time or is he muting specific strings with his left hand?

    • @InfoComentada

      He's muting specific strings wth his left hand!

    If the tabs were place in the corner would be great, in the middle is a bit distracting. but all and all its an excellent tutorial!

      Yes, he used one in this version of the song. I should have stated that. This one's an old video.

  • @JeffandKmusic
    @JeffandKmusic 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank for the lesson. Sadly i don't think anyone will be able to get any much fluidity out of this song using 2 finger plucking. You won't have the crisp attack or the consistant mute strums that really adds to the rhythm of this song in this version. In the beginning of the pre-chorus the Gminor he throws vibrato on the bottom 2 notes and the c Sus2 deally in the chorus he plays the 2nd on the g string. I envy John's thumbs so much :(

    I like this one too man but just not really good at explaining it. I want to learn these specific versions but I wish you’d tell us which strings and frets to slide into instead of tabs. You’re a great player
