Just me, my Strat, and a little bit of looping action. My cover of Gravity from Where The Light is (Live in L.A) by John Mayer. **This video isn't shot live in L.A :-D - เพลง

I think i just found where the light is.
Funny.
Legend has it, mayer hasnt found it yet.
@@Rose-kx9tw because he made it
Truly
Nicely put
i practiced and studied this song by Harrison for a full year and a half. Just got it done, to the last note tonight. I'm so proud.
Dammn godly
Do u use loop pedal just like Harrison's? if so then whats the loop name/settings?
@@julessgalilea2639 I don’t use the 500 dollar looper he has which is the RC-300. I bought it once but it was very complicated to figure out. It’s the most versatile looper on the market so I’ll eventually get it again. But I got instead the simple RC- 1 looper. It’s like 70 bucks or something. Works great. Simple features. And obviously my looping won’t be in the exact measures as Harrison’s because it’s not as advanced but that’s totally fine. I’ll have to play like a couple more bars to complete the full rhythm section before I hit the solo parts. I love playing to crowds in the streets here in LA. It’s so much fun!
@@JakeFields92 ahh i see good information thanks for sharing!
Jacob, your videos are SO funny. Keep it up.
Imagine being his neighbor. "Excuse me, Its 3am and I was wondering if you wouldn't mind turning it UP!?".
haha wow that's clever.. because normally the neighbors would ask to turn it down! But you turned that around by saying they ask to turn it up. Wow that's really funny!

Thanks for the laugh 😂

I feel so bad for the people who skip this halfway through and don't get to see the full video... OMG that last few minutes!! Simply mind blowing!
and who are those? how do you know they even exist?

0:55 That guitar pick/plectrum switch was so smooth.
That was slick af wtf
How do they do it?
@@nicksonthevet it's magick
i cant even hold a pick properly this guy is doing magic tricks while hes playing just crazy
That was gold
This is what a strat is supposed to sound like!
Johnathon Thunder a strat can and is supposed to sound like whatever you want it to. that is the beauty of this versatile guitar 😁
yes! I love the sound of the neck pickup, but this one is superb!
Wow. I’ve never heard a completely 100% perfect cover on TH-cam....until now. This. Was. Perfection.
It's nearly there. I think John used the neck and middle pickup positions on his Strat for a lot of this song on the night. Other than that, the playing is spot on.
@@ryanslauderdalewhat the fuck is wrong with you
Keep practicing. You'll get it.

the guitar faces on this mans face whilst playing are probably amazing
I can’t get enough of this performance. Total guitar blues. The tones are heavenly. I got Jamie’s tutorial of this song, and it was like a guitar super power.
The level of cleanliness and precision in this piece is utterly mindblowing every time I come back to it. Honestly freaks me out a bit.
If for one second you are hesitating to buy Jamie's Gravity lesson, let me save you some time... YOU MUST BUY IT. I came here because of his "slow dancing in a burning room" lesson, and Its safe to say he is an extremely proficient guitar teacher, one of the best. I again thought that I already knew how to play "Gravity" quite well... but after going through the lesson, boy was I wrong. Jamie is a master at teaching the tone and emotion of John Mayers playing, by explaining all of the subtle and minute details. He goes over things from both the Live in LA and studio versions in over 17 different videos. He teaches techniques that transcend this song alone; techniques which are transferrable to ALL areas of playing. He even gives an in depth analysis on what sort of gear will help you get JMs tone. Jamie has turned me from your average bedroom acoustic guitar player into someone who is confident and advanced enough to scream solos in front of a crowd at gigs. Whether you are an extremely advanced player, or a beginner, I promise you that these lessons will teach you something new.
Haha, wow, what an amazing review Mitchell, thank you so much! My only worry is that this review is so damn good and well put together that people might think I’m paying you to say that 😂Seriously though, really glad to hear that the lessons have helped you so much! I’m delighted to have been able to help 😊 And thanks again for taking the time to leave the amazing review 😊
Definitely not a paid endorsement! Just an honest review from someone who appreciates the time and effort you put into the lessons :) Looking forward to future lessons! Keep em comin
Your playing is beautiful but this is so gringy lol.
Coen but not as gringy as your spelling
Jamie Harrison Guitar can i buy this if i’m in the US? the site only shows it in £.
Gorgeous. Well done bro. Absolutely stellar
Thank you so much dude! :)
Absolutely interstellar you mean 👀😂
This cover has become my favorite guitar instrumental. Your playing is unbelievable, and the dynamics along with this sound convey such intense emotions. It's pure Art. Thank you!
And John does all of this singing on top... just amazing!
If you listen closely, you can hear John Mayer singing inside your head😁😁😁
John Mayer will be proud of this! Legit the best cover ever.
Thanks so much for the comment, make sure you subscribe to be notified of any more videos! :)
He is JM
I clicked by mistake, best mistake ever...
Live in LA??
It's from John Mayer's live performance in LA, there's an album for it. I'd give it a listen
@@trevoralicea8269 Best John Mayer album by far in my opinion.
FlyingWithKB best album ever in my opinion 🤷🏻♂️
@@sherykhan53 no
That pick transition at 0:56 is so damn seamless 😩😩
You're one of the only guys on youtube who can do justice to ma boi John.
Christian Lopez was that spanish at the end of your sentence?
Joshua Niehus Hum no, porqué ?
Oh fuck... is that papa flammy? 😂👌
That part at 4:35 where he uses harmonics and pushes the string above the bar thing to change the note 👌👌 fucking impeccable
I can’t stop listening to that part!
John Mayer does that a lot too. I’m starting to believe this guy is John Mayer. (That’s a joke btw) He’s amazing.
I’ve been playing for 15 years and somehow never noticed anyone ever do that before. This video is amazing
@@user-rz9yg1lt9e he’s not just pulling the string, he’s bending the headstock neck to get the note out. I’ve played for a long time too. It’s a nice trick if you don’t have a tremolo arm. Or even if you do have one and want to do it anyway. Lots of guitarist do that.
@@rhettdale7027 He actually is bending the string above the nut. What you’re describing with the headstock is also a real technique, but in this instance he is pushing on the string directly. Besides it visually being obvious that he’s doing that, I also own his lesson on this song and he walks you through it so I know this for a fact.
0:55 I swear I watch that part over and over and I can not see how he was holding that pick. Just made it appear. Freaking mesmerizing
It is. Just downloaded the video just to slow it down to 0.2 speed and zoomed it in - saw absolutely nothing. Played it very very slow and zoomed in a dozen of times, I still don't have the faintest idea how the hell did he do that?!? I have my own tricks for that but this is way out of my league...
It’s just sorcery on a level yet to be explained.
It was in between pinkie and ring finger it took me a bit too lol
I used to listen to this everyday in college 10 years ago when I was on my way to school. You’ve brought up wonderful memories. Absolutely killed it and I thank you for this video
16 people that disliked this play the triangle.
I’ve always said people who react negatively to talent like this are simply non musicians. But your response is more witty. Lol
Surgeon001 it’s the bass people
And they play it by banging its case against the wall.
joesl8 that’s your opinion! For the tone, i know it’s a 1954 custom shop strat, going trough a delay pedal (can’t figure out which one) and a tube screamer (only used for last solo) going into a Princeton Reverb amp (with built in spring reverb on) mic’d with an R121
joesl8 by the way, may i ask why you hate John Mayer??
That pick transition @0:55... smooth af. Jamie, you are an inspiration. Thank you for this amazing performance and the lessons you provide. I am still working on my Slow dancing, you've given me a lot of insights and room for improvement. Much appreciated. For all people out there wondering if the lessons are worth it, one word - absolutely.
Soooooo goooood.😍😍 damn!
Me shufflin through comments to find who else noticed it! He got me like ~ DAMMMMMNNNN!! Slick af
Look up Chorus of course by Mateus Asato and you’ll see similar pick transitions, these guys are aliens!!
Yeah. Where the hell did he hide that pick.. A magician.. :-)
Wow didnt even notice he was quick
The best tone I've ever heard in a strat.
That's the most beautiful sound I've ever heard out of a guitar
All in one take, crazy good. That solo was spot on, love when it comes back to the main riff at 6:03
Ugh that harmonic solo. It's absolutely gorgeous. I love this song so much and that part is just... UGH
The best cover of gravity on the internet. Congrats man.
The riff at 3:38 is amazing! I love the bluesy feel and groove to it.
THAT RIFFF OMGGGGGGGGGGG
very Hendrix and so beautiful :)
@@rossatoaurelienmore srv but yeah
Woahhhh insanely well done Jamie!!!!! This is AMAZING !
Everything about it, the practice, the camera, the guitar, the tone, the overall sound, the hard work... no words.
Gave me goosebumps... Nailed it, congratulations!!!!!
now wait for the "hold my beer" jokes! Awesome tho
Couldn’t agree more!
hey!
Gimme that toneeeeeeeeee
Dennis Johnson really I don't even know how he does that it's so clean
Bad Hombre The dark arts I tell you.
Buy his course! He includes a little video series on gear and tone! :)
Yeah I bought his Slow Dancing course, super informative!
A lot of tone can't be taught, it's learned through emotion and the capability to express that emotion
I bought Jamie's slow dancing lesson and it's totally worth it. See, I've been trying to learn from TH-cam and online teachers (Since COVID) and what I realized is that as you learn from this guy you're not just learning one song but you can take any concept to your playing in general and it just makes you better. Also, his gear/tone lessons open a different dimension.
I've watched this like 10 times and it never gets old. I actually bought Jamie's "everything bundle" and there is enough lessons in that to keep me busy for the rest of the year and then some. And the lessons are no walk in the park. He teaches a lot of rhythm and percussion techniques that take some serious practice. I've been in the middle of the intermediate skill level range for quiet some time and I am finally feeling some growth again since buying his lessons.
I've never seen anyone build emotion like that to culminate into what I just witness in the remaining couple minutes of the song. John Mayer did not play it with the subtle nuances of this magnitude. I'm really awestruck.
Gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down
Oh, I'll never known what makes this man
With all the love that his heart can stand
Dream of ways to throw it all away
Whoa, gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down
Oh, twice as much ain't twice as good
And can't sustain like one half could
It's wanting more that's gonna send me to my knees
Oh twice as much ain't twice as good
And can't sustain like one half could
It's wanting more that's gonna send me to my knees
Whoa, gravity, stay the hell away from me
Whoa, gravity has taken better men than me
Now how can that be?
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is
Come on keep me where the light is
Come on keep me where, keep me where the light is
I cannot tell you how long I've sat here and watched this on repeat
Aside from amazing playing, he took the time to figure out the notes, memorize them, and make us all feel sorry for our own abilities. Amazimg job👍👍✌😍
This brought me to tears man. I havnt cried over a song since I first heard John play it. Thank you man Ik you put some muhc time into learning that. I truly thank you and wish you the best.
I HIGHLY recomend Jamie`s courses! Best courses i ever bought! if you like Hendrix/SRV/Mayer, and/or you are searching for that classic Strat tone, THIS IS FOR YOU!
Score: 10/10 -Some random guitarist on the internett
Ive watched this so many times trying to figure it out by sight and ear and holy cow is everything spot on and clear. Thank you, please continue doing what you do
Continuum an that la performance was the peak of his career an a landmark in music. Sadly my generation don’t appreciate raw talent and sheer musical genius so it’ll probably get forgotten with the previous generations
I really don't know how to describe the feelings I feel when listening to this! It's absolutely amazing. I'm a huge fan of covers, but this is something different. It's in another level. The feeling, the technique, the tone, evertyhing in tune. Thanks for this masterpiece and hope you continue to make these covers happen!
That second solo near the end is so sick! Epic work bro!
I thought moments can only be captured and then be remembered but here you recreated that exact moment John Mayer had in his life
This Just changed my life in a very positive way.
For anyone asking for a lesson for this song; the lesson is NOW AVAILABLE here: bit.ly/3DBdo69
Lesson contains Videos, Tabs, Chords, Guitar, Amp, Tone discussion, other gear, studio gear, recording, microphones, looping etc. Loads of reviews in the TH-cam comments of any of my videos :)
Thanks so much for all the amazing comments! I haven't been able to keep up! So glad you're enjoying the video! :)

Dude, mad props on the lessons. Bought this one today and it is already helping me so much figuring out how to play Gravity properly! Many thanks :)
I just bought the Gravity course and I’m half way. I just finished learning the first solo, it’s a dream because it’s been over a year that I’ve wanted to play this song exactly like Jamie does. And not I can get a bit closer, thank you Jamie. I don’t know how you were able to get note by note of this incredible performance. This is definitely a big plus in my skills, once I finish this I’m gonna buy every damn lesson, Jamie you are incredible and a very sophisticated player indeed. Thank you!!!
Best Mayer covers I've ever seen. What a player ! Thank you !
Great to see someone put the time in to really learn this tune. Chord voicings, phrasing, tone and all. I sat down and learned this note for note a couple years back and picked up some amazing lead and rhythm ideas. Most covers you see on TH-cam are decent imitations but they aren’t how John actually plays it. You nailed it. From one guitarist to the other, great job man. I wish more players would take the time required to learn songs the correct way by ear as opposed to just trusting a tab/chord site. Just doing this with one song would improve their playing more than they ever could ever imagine. Great work brother 👏
The guy behind all this, John Mayer, is a freaking music genius. This cover is the closest to it, thanks for sharing it.
Man not only did you play one of the best covers of this song ive ever heard... you totally nailed the tone perfectly!
2:28 to 3:18 fav part. ❤️ what a feeling ! Listened it for more than 30 times. Playing called perfection. Cheers for this
To second Mitchell Adamson's comments... If you're on the fence about buying Jamie's bundle (ALL of the courses, not just one or two of the songs) f'ing get off it. I've bought a ton of online courses for guitar (and countless other things over the years) and Jamie's course is EPIC! The music theory course is worth its weight in gold and his suite of programs will take you from being someone who can "play a few songs" to being a bonafide guitarist. Get that shit!
Mate you are right on the money ! I’ve been playing guitar for 15+ years and thought I was an okay 🎸-ist but after getting his slow dancing lesson (then buying the whole bundle later ) something just clicked and everything just made sense I went from playing mostly from memory and repetition to being able to improv all over the neck. You certainly learn the songs he teachers but the best lesson is understanding how it all connects. I had a good few months where I was having 💡 moments daily ! It reignited my passion for guitar and I’m playing more than I ever have and having so much more fun doing it
I really can’t agree with you anymore if anyone is on the fence stop over thinking it and buy the whole bundle (don’t make my mistake and buy just the one lesson or you will regret it )
The best gift you can give someone is the gift of music and for that I’ll always be indebted to Jamie. Even if you think you are a good guitarist Jamie’s courses will change your life and how you view music and the fretboard. Anyone learning guitar today is incredibly lucky there are resources like this available it would have saved me years of playing scales and jamming basic blues shuffles
Being able to play this is right up there with being able to play Purple Rain. I’m speechless! Well done 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Man I'm in my office with this playing and it is hitting great on this Friday Morning. Thank you for sharing your talent. Awesome and easy listening this is!!!!
God tier this when we’re talking about Mayer covers.
I bought the course for this song, as I thought that it'd be cool to learn this song. I got that, but I also got taught do many new techniques and skills and ideas thta are transferable to every song. Jamie is a brilliant teacher and he can certainly play guitar. If you're debating whether or not to buy it, I would say go for it. You won't regret it.
The stress that went off my head front listening this guy playing guitar🤤🤧😭
You can feel the players heart here. And the phrasing! Knowing how to play is something, but to understand what you're doing is another.
4:47 somehow it is calming..
I Swear I Hear Living Things' Powerful Emotions From 4.34....It Tears You Up Man..Every Time.........Amazing Display Of Musicianship Talent....It's Gotta Be Up There....... With The Best Of The Best....And So Well Put Together On The Whole Aswell.
One of the few things that can make my mind go blank!
I bought your full bundle and i can say that is the best online guitar lessons that i ever have..thank you Jamie. Love from Malaysia.
This is how you get 33k subscribers with only 5 videos on your channel, it really says a lot about the quality. I have never seen anything like this. This is truely amazing, thank you for putting so much effort into your videos and keep up the good work.
You make me want to grab my guitar and play - while at the same time never touch it again. Phenomenal struggle of the aspiration and acceptance!
im in love with this guy and his covers, this one is probably my favorite one and recently bought his courses which was amazing! hope i can play like this one day...
Jamies bends and vibrato (especially his bending vibrato) is next level. Soooo clean and smooth. Soulful. That's one of the main things I'm practicing lately because it just makes such a huge difference with everything you play, especially blues, if your bending and vibrato is perfect. You can play the coolest lick with just normal bends and normal vibrato and it'll sound good, but play the same thing with bending and vibrato like Jamie demonstrates here, the kind that really moves you, and that same lick will now sound 10x better. Goes for everything from the simplest to the most complex of licks. I'm gonna pick up some of Jamies courses too.
GraysonKade people overlook this so much but it really brings everything next level
That harmonic bend blew my mind! 🤯 I’ve never seen anything like it! Awesome job man!
Nailed it again !!!!!!
This cover shows how great John Mayer is! Also, hands down to you mate Jamie Harrison Guitar.
I am speechless. Absolutely speechless. This is exactly what I never knew I needed. Thank you.
Maybe the best cover I have ever heard in any genre. Jamie is a special player with impeccable tone and touch.
I’ve been waiting forever for this! You’re amazing man!
Mr. Harrison, you are ingenious. There is nothing more to say for me!
One of the very few renditions, / examples of this melody , that actually deserves a spotlight. Fantastic job! Timing , feel, that one thing that we cannot quite grasp. Great job! Keep it up
Jamie, you sound better than the originals...on every cover you do. I love the subtlety you bring to every note.
Man, this is the stuff I love watching the most! Great player+great music+great guitar+great camera work!! Awesome!
Mark Scheffler yup! This is the kinda guy you could hand him a cheap Squier and he could make it sing like a bird.
You are an incredible talent! This song takes on a total new meaning and experience listening to you play. In another life, Id like to be half as talented....
Starting the process, what a gift, thank you!!!!!
I have recently bought Jamie's lesson pack for Gravity, and all I have to say is wow. Those lessons are on whole different level man, thanks:)
Also, this cover is gonna blow up to millions, mark my words.
M A R K E D
Every guitarist will have seen this by the end of next year.
I'm going with 1.4 Millon by this year's Dec 31. Let's see how far I'm off then 😁
oh hi mark
Jan Černý would you say it's giving you tips to become a better guitar player all round, or is it just teaching you how to play the song?
@@loganeckersley7046 If you master this song you are already a better guitar player
So good. Brought me to tears. 🙌
Watching this concernts DVD was the first time I heard this particular live version and I straight up cried. No shame. To have the internal musical ability improv this just blows my mind. Outstanding cover
Thank you Jamie! Bought all your lessons in May b/c of being locked down for quarantine.Long time intermediate guitar player here, took a long break from playing ( a couple years)...but your lessons and covers have re-invigorated my passion for playing! Also working on “bold as love” and “little wing”.
I cant tell you how many times I come back and rewatch this video your a legend so is john but much love
2:30 made my heart sink like when you’re in a plane and the plane starts to ascend from the ground. 😂 idk if that makes any sense
It makes no sense. Its...er..nonsense..... ;-)
Sharmen Uytiepo that makes perfect sense. Exactly what i felt
I always watch this everyday! My most favorite guitar cover!
Just bought the full lesson pack, while this is currently out of my skill level. It's been a pleasure getting each part together slowly! Wonderful! Cheers Jamie! Thanks for the lessons!
This is absolutely amazing. Well done!
Por Dios! An amazing piece! Incredible way to play it! Please do the entire album of mayer LA! Love and peace!
Was at that concert in 2007 and didn't know who the guy was lol. Was blown away by John's skill as a guitarist myself, this is the closest you can get to that performance. Well done Jamie.
I can't believe how awesome you play brother. So soul soothing. Thank you
I just can't believe how anyone can be this good man. Seriously, great job dude!
That lick is so exotic and complex at the same time 3:49
edgarhamms it’s one of the ones you just feel differently, one of the best
One of the most skilled and most accurate covers, note-for-note.
Like a great quote, nothing to add, just perfect.
Man you should upload more videos! You're so good
Thank you 😊😊 I upload as much as I can, with as much time as I have
Jamie Harrison Guitar Thanks!! I love your videos because its quality over quantity!! Really good job and brilliant playing!!
He actually does a LOT more videos than you see on TH-cam...in the form of lessons for the songs he posts here, which are also completely amazing.
Perfection takes time
