Metal-oriented guitars can definitely be compatible with blues music. Those shirts, on the other hand...
This channel has become so John Mayer centric, and I’m VERY okay with that.
Even if you didn’t like JM (I know you said you did), he’s great for the popularity of guitar in music
Cuz it’s bigger than our bodies
Except he hasn't done anything worth listening to for years...
Music Islife : in your opinion but I don't agree with it , you maybe didn't just gave it a try.
dvO Bry it's all just the same and it gets boring real quick and I hate the stuff he's doing with TGD, I never did like that band :/
I for one heavily support the idea of John Mayers next signature being a Dean with every single part of the guitar being as pointy and ott as humanly possible.
if he wants to prove his worth he will become a BC Rich player
Exactly I mean if he doesn't he will never be taken seriously
John Mayer signature Daisy Rock!
Pete is rapidly becoming one of my favourite guitar players on RUclips.... He is very melodic in his playing... and his use of chords is what I want to learn... awesome stuff guys, love it!!
Totally agree it shouldn't be what the guitar looks like. It's down to the player. Ola Englund did a video playing metal on a Tele, strat and a 335. It's whatever floats your boat.
Like the blindfold idea as well.
I have a beautiful daphne blue strat that I love playing jazz and blues on as much as I love chugging chords on. At the end of the day, she's my guitar and that's what matters :)
I do love the thought of a clean playing blues cat hopping on stage with a Randy Rhodes V though haha
My cheap squier sounds like shit with distortion, probably just the cheap single coils in it though lol.
Mr. Dahudge i changed the single coil in the bridge position for something that reacts better with gain and cleans :P
I don't like bridge single coils tbh
Ola playing Slayer on a cherry 355 with a big fuck-off gold Bigsby on it made my day, especially because he loved it too and it sounded amazing!

Glad to see the tonal diversity of the Charvels and Jackson's being shown off in this video. :)
hey im a massive fan thanks for doing these amazing videos it has helped me so much in choosing gear
A great video, guys! Really enjoyed that! It's nice to see Joss in there, as he seems to have found his voice more and is very knowledgeable.
How to play blues on any guitar- play some blues, simple.
Keep churning them out boys, I'll literally watch as many Mayer vids as you can produce.
This video has such an important lesson! A guitar won't make you better. It will always sound like you. Once I figured that out I decided to sell my epiphone ES339 and SE 245. Now when I shop I think of how often I'll actually pick up the guitar I'm trying versus the guitars I've played for years! Great video guys!!!
Sometimes I like these video because of an interest in a particular guitar that's featured.
I always enjoy the playing especially from Pete and Ariel
Forget The Bros. Landreth and Andertons, Ariel and Pete should form a duo and go on tour.
Nothin but respect for how much this channel loves Mr Mayer!
They are “supposed to be played” any way you as the player like...these ideas about having to have a specific guitar for every song every song ever written is one of the most successful marketing plans ever created. All the tones in the video can be had on with many guitars. A lot of them. Really enjoyed the video though because I love hearing good players! Good job
one awesome intro jam, great vibe and tone is brilliant!
Pete and Ariel are two of the very few people that can get the balance of the picked notes vs the percussive strike just right when playing that kind of finger style. Most people are too heavy handed with the strike and it gets REALLY irritating very quickly. Well done guys, that's just so cool!... and great video. Not enough people talk about how the pointy guitars are great for blues as they play so well, the high output pickups give a great big round clean tone and they're really cheap!!!... in comparison to ridiculously cool custom shop relic Fenders :)
Jam Junkies it’s called a compressor pedal homie
Taylor Myrick And now you've gone and ruined the surprise..which is? They're not using one!
This is easing my hangover no end. Thanks Pete!
really like the Jackson Pete is playing . "Had" a soloist back in the day and loved it .
Hey Pete always love your playing . I think that blue sl4x will have to come home with me . I need one dont hesitate get yours today! Take it easy and keep it up at Andertons love you guys! Al at the beach myrtle bch sc
Those were some of the tastiest intro licks to have ever graced this channel
Jackson makes the best playing guitar out there on the market for the money. Saying a metal guitar can't be used for other thing is dumb. In fact a guitar for metal players will play better
best country guitar and I am serious about it
Great video guys... 👍😎👍 I couldn't agree more!! I have a Soloist with emg-hz humbuckers that I've been playing with for years and I absolutely love it!! The funny thing is that I've used it for everything but metal
From jazz to blues to pop to rock... But very little metal
Great vid guys. Yes do the blindfold strat thing!Chose a San Dimas (HH/HT) over all the usual suspects - ace quality and great range of tones available. Sweet and chiming to gnarly guttural sustain. Neck is a dream.
This is not fair. Pete and Ariel can make any guitar sound good!
Damn these two are just monster players, can’t get enough of it
great video guys-thank you! playing is fun when your inspired :-)
this is a good fun video... good work dudes!
Great playing again guys...
Wonderful history rundown.
Omg that intro is taken from the JM livestream haha! Nice playing guys
EVH, Allan Holdsworth played Charvel. Jeff Beck a Pink Jackson Soloist. They’re great guitars but they defined an era back in the 80’s. I own a Charvel San Dimas 1 QM and it’s a very versatile guitar. The pickups and radius neck are huge selling point. They sound great and they can get their quack in still.
I would hazard the reason is the simple one. They look quirky and cool when in Mayer's hands precisely because it juxtaposes his normal style. Almost as if he's saying he's at the point in his playing and career where he can do and play whatever he wants. It's hard but to see his choice to play that pink Soloist as anything other than a fashion choice.
Excellent playing by Ariel!
Came here just to Spread some Danish Pete Love!. He's so good!
best channel ever, loving that Jackson.
Hang on, hang on a mo. I've got a bit of a problem here. There's a lot of talk on various channels amongst us guitar nerds about JM & EC & DG and it's entirely justified. May I draw the communal attention to the gentleman on the left of your picture. Pete's an absolutely top flight ace pro player, one of the best. For me, Ariel's got that incredibly rare thing where the skin the string & the wood become the same thing.
You should collect all your jams in an album or something. That was gold playing guys
Damn you three work well together!
Like the blind challenge idea. Turns should be taken with a mix of styles to really mess with the mind a little! Or really warp and there has to be some Miku in between each guitar!
I have the Charvel in white and love it. It is such a versatile beast. You can split the coils by the way, to get closer to the strat tones. It stays in tune all the time. Only downside to me is that you cant change tunings as fast. Still looking for a nice strat tho ;)
I really wanna jam on one of those jacksons, I really dig the look.
Man everyone at Andertons is a monster player, awesome.
I bought a san dimas maybe six months ago, I have played the thing clean/low gain more than I ever thought I would. Guess the pickups (which aren't actually that high output), particularly when split, with the alder body actually works really well. Ironically it is the squealies I really struggle to pull out compared to my other two electrics!
The Daphne Blue Jackson Soloist SL4X is beautiful. I'd like to see it as a SL2H with a full pickguard, maybe I can go through the Custom Shop down the road(?)!
It' not uncommon for musicians to own & play different guitars & gear. Each one has it's own personality & feel & sound. But I do enjoy the videos, they are entertaining as well as informative, thanks guys, keep on rockin'!!!
I Love all the video uploads...but, what is that helmet in the back? Looks very cool!
I played blues and (very simple) jazz on a Jackson 7 string multiscale (fan fret) guitar. Loved it. I only sold it because my brain/hands couldnt switch between 6 and 7 string guitars. It messed me up. I just ordered the Jackson sl4x, because I miss my Jackson.
Pete shouting "Yay" in the background after Joss's solo got me laughing, dunno why but don't stop this. :)
I'm sold 100% on the soloist. Getting one as soon as i can
hey pete did you buy this guitar and stick in single coils? if so, can i please have the link?
John Mayer will always be in my heart holding a 60's strat playing through a two note
After playing hundreds of guitars, one of the best I have ever played was a Jackson custom built ordered by a friend of mine. I had a production one it was just ok.
when are u guys gonna jam at a venue together? i'll buy a ticket right now!
I would guess because Jeff Beck used an orange Jackson on the video for Ambitious and a pink one when he played with Stevie, in Hawaii.
Having been around in the '80's I am pretty sure the 3 single coil Jackson is based on the Charvel model 5 of which Jeff Beck had an orange one of I remember rightly. Not just hair metal lovely as that can be.
I like seeing a guitar out of its comfort zone :) (Or how it's perceived)
Is Ariel a clairvoyant (12:30)... Pretty sure there is recent footage of JM playing an eight string Abasi guitar.
Pete, sorry I got side tracked with all the Meyer posts lol. I have a 1986 made in Japan Charvel. I was a total Jake E Lee fan and the neck on that guitar is what I judge all others by to this day. Just perfect for me. When I became more serious about tone and packed my Distortion pedal away. I didn't go out and buy a new guitar i didn't want to get used to something different all over again. I Changed the pickups (which were EMG) to Di Marzio single coils and the Floyd to a vintage strat bridge. It's a Japanese made Charvel with the slanted headstock. So yes, you can change the pickups and play all the blues you wanna. You may as well upgrade the CAPs and POTs and add a treble bleed while your at it. Call it the Danish Pete mod!! (I use Emerson)
what is they song they play out to at the end of the video???
I think I remember BUDDY GUY playing an LTD for a short time in the 90's or late 80's. But if you go to the south here in the USA where I was born and have tried to visit every joint where live music can still be found and the drinks are sold by the bottle and you can still smell the river in the walls from the last flood.You will find that people play whatever they get their hands on. It's a Blues guitar because that's whats coming out of it not the name on the head stock. And by the way, Jack Pearson plays a $69 Squire. I always remind myself of that fact before I reach for the wallet.
Do a comparison of Gibson and Epi LP with the same pickups (preferably the more expensive ones!). I wonder how much wood plays
Where can I get a Pete shirt?
Agree with blindfolding someone like chappers and the cap and someone else plays a bunch of different strat type guitars and they guess which is which and which they like.
Also you could do that test with les Paul type guitars.
Then do the same with individual pedals vs a multi fx unit.
Incredible ending jam there
-/-/- Can anyone please tell me the chords of that sequence Pete plays starting at 20:05, he plays 7 magical chords...
There's a video of Jeff Beck and Stevie Ray Vaughan in Hawaii in 1984 and Beck is playing a pink 3 single coil Soloist.
I use my Schecter for blues... It's not overly difficult to get some amazing blues tones from MOST guitars/amps... You just gotta invest the time to get YOUR blues tone!
I use a a 6505 on the High gain channel and a TS9 pushing it and an 9 string Ibanez for my blues tone
WhHAT CHORD PROGRESSION IS PETE PLAYING AT 20:05??? would be much appreciated!!
Which amp are they playing? #lovethesound
You can play anything on on any equipment. Clapton used Soldano back in the 1980s. So they're not just \m/ METAL \m/ amps.
Nice vid.
I'm new to this game...but what is a humbugger?
It's a type of pickup designed by inspector Clueseau and Ebenezer Scrooge...
honestly, i absolutely love jackson (15 year old me even named my youtube account after them), but somehow a fender strat just makes you play stratty stuff. it just leads you into this direction, and while of course you can play blues just fine on a jackson, and it will sound great, the strat just makes it flow out of you, just like the shred flows out of you when playing a jackson. it's not about tone, it's not about "can you play X on Y guitar", it's about "does the guitar make you want to play X?". if you need one guitar to rule them all, there are plenty of options, but having multiple niche guitars is way more fun in my opinion
I think I'm gonna get it too, Pete.
great guitars! for any playing style!!
i have a partscaster that is nitro surf green relic'd to look like the JM black one it has gold hard ware with two fender 57/62 pickup's in the neck and middle and a chopper with a pink cover at the bridge so i was going for a 80's super strat/jem look [ with the green and pink back PU cover] but with a relic and gold hardware to look like the JM black one i call it the meanie mayer!
I need pictures of this!!!
Sounds like an awesome build.
HEY OSCAR! sadly i don't own a camera and don't know how to upload pictures anyway but i think the guitar looks really cool! thanks for the interest!
HEY BRYAN! yes it is a really cool guitar! i also own a fender classic player 60's strat that i had re-done in nitro faded fiesta red which is cool too but a really love playing the meanie mayer because the chopper PU in the bridge is so much fun and the neck is awesome.
Do a video on tone fingers!!!!!
One guitar same amp moderate amount of gain and see how much the tone changes by changing player and not touching any knobs
I use a Jackson JS 12 with a soul band, it works fine!
Duas guitarras maravilhosas sonzeira boa demais parabéns!
Pete blindfold + squier + charvel + gibson + fender + true life vintags of either brand, would make a KILLER VIDEO!!!
I would allow a fretboard workover and guitar tech setup on all guitars to make just about the sonics, not about the feel
That Charvel really surprised me. Jacksons might be too much for softer music, though I've had good luck with some Sololists.
you would have to think that if you play pretty much any guitar through a bluesy set up i.e. amp/pedals its gonna sound somewhat bluesy, vice versa for a bluesy guitar played through a metal setup its gonna sound like a metal guitar.
plus how you play it and your own natural tone
I like John Mayer’s music precisely because it also attracts girls. Go to a Vai, Satch, Dream Theater concert and they are all predominantly guys (who are students of guitar).
It’s not much good socializing material. You always hanging out with the same nerdy guitar guys. Switch your taste in music and see what it does to your dating life. Just saying. I have no hate for John Mayer and his music, because he did some good things for my life.
12x12surface kudos to you for keeping it real!
Change your taste in music to impress girls ? Lol that's pretty weak shit right there, son lol
@@booshting3520 probably means extent your range of knowledge and become less close minded with music genre
Alright then, if we're doing this, let's do it all the way. See you guys at the next Coldplay concert.
See you guys shredding at billie eyelash concert will be drowning in Thots.
Yes John Mayer is very good and good looking and he probably smells great too, 😂 but you guys are just as talented and better looking (not sure on the smell??) thanks for another great vid!
Some tasty playing here
I have played a ton of different styles of music on my Dean ML the guitar at the end of the day is just a chunk of wood with strings the shape is more about style than any practical requirements.
Great idea, now do this with amps. Play some jazz and blues on a 5150 or Invective and play some metal on a Twin (with a pedal probably lol).
Those warm neck humbucker cleans at 19:45 are _very_ compatible with Pete's playing, maybe don't be too quick with changing the pickups on your Jackson without thoroughly exploring what it has to offer for you.
Jackson and Charvel are both excellent instruments ! Why shouldn't he use them !
He play both now, charvel for HW and jackson for some of TSFE album
that was the best way to end that jam at the end😂🔥!!!
Is that queen of California? in the beginning of the video can anyone answer?
Was that a John Mayer song at 23:00?
I like Pete Playing that Jackson. It's got that "Wholesome" tone.
Well...obviously....only some people need this kind of videos..or their guitar idol to convince them that it all doesnt matter at all...the way it sounds to you is all u need to know..u can make many other examples other way round...metal players playing strats or teles or hollowbody guitars..
The Jackson with the 51 style pickguard was pretty much Jeff Beck's signature in the 80's. Internet is awesome, you can learn a lot with 30 minute researchs about the charvel/jackson thing.
I didn't finish the video but in the intro you guys never use the whammy in all the ways John does and he even has an Instagram video explaining why he uses guitars with Floyd's on them. It's strictly to do a few tricks with the Floyd and he breaks them all down
Every time we get a John Mayer video and the Captain is not in it I expect him to burst through the wall any second XD
Gary Moore played a Jackson 30 years ago
And Ibanez Roadstars, Roland SynthAxe's, Fender Strats too ;)
Elliot Knight and Jeff beck!
These are nice guitars, but I think most blues players would want to go with a more traditional guitar - a Strat style with single coils, or a semi-hollow with P90's or humbuckers for that 335-type sound. If you mainly do heavy rock but want to dabble in blues, that's fine, but if blues is your thing, make it easy to get the sound and feel you want with a traditional electric blues guitar.
