The amazing dog thing about Mayer and his band is that ALL of them are complete masters and could easily shred out on every song and overdo it but they know how to work with space in a song which is so much more important
Yes, always in service of the music. That's why these guys a pros and we can just aspire to get to that level one day! Thanks for watching
This perfectly highlights why I love John Mayer and how good of a musician and writer he is, without being virtuosic or flashy.
Thank you!
You spelled “greatest to ever do it” wrong.
This is like a Masterclass in how to play with multiple guitarists in a band setting.
Thank you! These guys are awesome
What a crazily unique demonstration of something that nobody else did on RUclips, much love to you. ❤
Thanks a lot!
Ty good bye
I know right I won't do that anymore u live and learn my lesson is learned
An unpopular opinion for how good the 3 guitar sound is in Half of My Heart. Every guitar in it has such a big impact on each other
I agree!
Very cool video! I watched John live with his band during the Sob Rock Tour. One of the best concerts I've been to. Thank you!
Awesome, I wish I could see a show from the Sob Rock Tour but they didn't come to Europe. I saw John live back in 2017 and 2019 and it was amazing - the band was always on top.
Claude *Applause* you my friend, gosh. This is one of the most insightful videos ive ever watched. as an engineer, guitarist, producer. Ive seen some of these tings in mixes etc. buts its what we call icing and done normal with effects. Its interesting to see how you point out that its done live and how it can be used in an orchestral mode to give depth and toneal quality. Thank you so much for your insight!
Thanks so much! Yes, I'm fascinated with how this type of stuff is done live
All are amazing ! So fun to watch them all live and the looks they give each other. I was front row for a show during the ‘19 tour. was such a treat to witness the guitar work and chemistry they had going on. Sharkey was bananas!!
Must have been great to watch!
Great video idea! Mayer is an underrated composer, would be cool to see you break down more of his work :)
Thank you! I certainly might do in the future
@@ClaudeRuelle I agree - I'd love to see more info on John's work.
This video earned you a new subscriber, my friend! It's great how in-depth this is!
This was incredible to watch. Thank you so much!
Thanks a lot! I'm glad you enjoyed it
This guy nailed it and was glad he used a master of layering like John Mayer. Mayer is so cerebral but yet makes it look like he's just floating along wildly jamming on a song, but really, he's so disciplined. Thank you for putting this video together. It was so well done and formatted. Love it. I subscribed.
Thanks a lot for your nice comment. And welcome!
Excellent video. I’ve been wanting someone to talk about this for ages! More like this plz
Thanks! Haha, me too, that’s why I ended making a video about it. Glad you enjoyed it, I’ll definitely work on more
HOW do you have so few subscribers? This was so well made and I envy your understanding of band composition and guitar.
Thanks a lot!
Fantastic upload, this information is so crucial in a full band context
Absolutely!
Wow! Well done. It's not everyone that can do these kinds of deconstruction videos while also nailing the playing and the tone.
Thanks a lot!
Phenomenal work breaking this all down man. I was also wondering how they have so many guitars and now I have a better sense of it.
Thank you!
This is really an awsome perspective to look at John's song, thank you Claude!!
Thanks a lot!
Brilliant analysis. Loved this video. You put a lot of work into it I can tell.
Thank you, much appreciated!
I’ve seen everything about John on RUclips, and this is hands down the best video I’ve seen about understanding his music 😍😍😍
Thank you! You're very kind
You will hit 100,000 subs one day, your videos and playing are so good!!!
Thank you, you're too kind
What a great video! For Wild Blue I needed to listen to the studio version twice before I could isolate the other two parts. They are so, so subtle. Deciding where to set the volume of the supporting parts must be challenging, as these parts have their own its own merits and, at times, could be given more focus--as they are in Helpless. Really enjoyed your observations and discussion.
Glad you enjoyed it! It took me quite a bit of careful listening with good headphones to get the parts right
What a brilliant video! I have been thinking about these things for a long time (while recreating vultures and helpless on a looper). And your video is not just musically great, but the editing and other video elements are also minimal/to the point. Great job man, Keep making these bangers :)
Thanks a lot! This is very kind
this is such a unique video. Well observed and thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching
I've been Mayer's fan for years but I couldn't really describe why I love his works. You analyzed his magic and explained so well just in a single video, amazing work. Subbed!
Thank you! And welcome!
as if it's hard. he's a great player who is a true artist--meaning he did something that no one really did beforehand in terms of his songwriting, and he has some unbelievably complex compositions, along with being a great player on more traditional runs, riffs, phrases.
Glad I discovered your channel mate. Terrific work!
Awesome, thank you!
thank you for doing this! there’s a clip of sharkey somewhere doing his comping parts in a john mayer song.. beautiful how it fits in
Ah yes I saw that clip, it's awesome. Thank you for your comment
You found out a very unique way of bring guitar content up here on YT. Congratulations, man! Glad to know this channel, hope you gather subscribers soon.
Thank you for these encouraging words!
Pretty good video. Great the way you show all the parts.
Belief also there are some cool guitar arragements. Cheers. 🎉❤
Thanks! Yeah Belief is awesome
Cool video, love this stuff. Great tones from your guitar too
Thank you so much!
Thanks for this, it's an eye-opener for me.
Thank you, glad you got something out of it!
what a great video maaate!!! congrats!! more content like this pleeease c:
Thanks a lot! Definitely working on more
This is so awesome sir! Thank you!!!
I love the content and the presentation is perfect!
More reconstructions please!
This actually blew my mind when it comes to arranging music.
RUclips algorithm for the win!
Thanks a lot! Definitely working on more
These type of videos are awesome- got to see the sob rock tour at the forum, march 15 2022; best band I’ve ever been able to listen to in person.
That’s awesome. Would have loved to see a show of the sob rock tour. Saw them back in 2017 and it was amazing
Looking at music more technically now! It's gonna make listening much more meaningful than it already is for me. Great video. Thank you for your guidance. Cheers!
Thank you! Glad you got something out of it
Such a cool, informative video! And you‘re an excellent guitar player too🙌🏻subscribed
Thank you so much! Welcome!
What a fantastic video! More Mayer please!!
Thank you! I'll sure try to work on more in the near future
What a cool deconstruction and video!
Thank you very much!
Amazing demonstration.
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video and very enlightening, though one of the things I admire about John's playing is that he's also quite happy to play any of his songs just on acoustic by himself and often in different ways👍
Thanks! Yeah I love that too
Just saw him last week at the opening of his Solo tour in Cleveland. He was captivating and compelling all by himself on stage, he's an amazing performer and musician all around
Great video, Seeing the breakdown really emphasizes how John is a master guitar/music composer. Cheers
Thanks a lot!
Brother your breakdown of these songs slolos i havent seen anyone do it . Earned a sub 🤗. Keep posting guitar videos
Thank you! Definitely working on more
Great review!!👏👏
Glad you liked it!
Oh I never listened to John Mayer's guitar parts that carefully before! Thank you for your analysis :)
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it
Amazing! 🙌🏼
Thanks a lot!
Wow really insightful and interesting video as a guitar player and fan of John Mayer😊
Thanks!
A big RUclips channel in the making. Awesome stuff!
Thanks a lot!
Just found your channel. Incredible! Subbed and looking forward to more.

Killer breakdown!
Thank you!
Really great video!
Thank you!
Good stuff my man! just discovered your channel, keep going!
Thank you and welcome!
not a hint of hesitation! subscribed!
Thank you!
ALways loved more bands with one guitar, my fav band Incubus for example is just one, and i love more space for the bass, but so much to know and explore, Im a hardcore JM fan and in the " im gonna find another you" in Where the light is, they have 3 guitar solos, for each of the guitarists and since then i was fascinated by how they all can do such fine arrengements but dont have the ear as trained as youto notice for example the vultures example is amaaaaazing
So much work for this video in editing and playing also in this video, really enjoy it!
Thanks for your comment. Incubus are great
Magnifique! You should be 100K subs in no time
Thank you! You are too kind
Amazing video man, congrats!
Thanks a ton!
Your vid’s are mastery in themselves.
Thank you! You are very kind
More please! 👍🏽👏🏽
Thank you! I'll definitely work on more
Hey! This was good stuff! Keep it going!! Your channel will soon take off! :)

Thank you for making such a quality video and sharing it. New subscriber here. God bless.
Thanks a lot!
This is awesome ❤
Thank you, glad you liked it
Great Content!
Thank you!
Great vid!
Thank you!
Hey, I was at that workshop at the very beginning! Lottsa fun.
Very cool! This must have been great
@@ClaudeRuelle In case you're interested, turns out someone captured it all: ruclips.net/video/mCKPMTeaBrY/видео.html
@@ClaudeRuelle Even better, I sat next to Mark on the flight from Dallas to Miami. Tremendously nice fellow. It was hard not to fan-boy the whole time!
BTW, just saw your video on the Mayer/Hunter thumb percussion technique - great stuff, haven't seen it anywhere else.
This video is informative gold!
Thanks a lot! Glad you got something out of it
You nailed it ❤
thank you!
Very cool.
Thank you!
really cool video
Thank you!
Incredible video man! I’m a new subscriber now
Thank you!
Awesome video
Thank you!
that helpless was niiice
Thank you! I love that riff
Awesome video! I still suck at guitar (age 49), but I’m a huge JM fan.
Thank you!
Man you should make a video about Moving on and getting over
great vid
Thank you!
Sometimes, the RUclips algorithm is spot on. I'm neither a fan of big bands, nor am I interested in being a part of one, but those are some killer tips for making guitar loop arrangements sound a lot fuller and more interesting.
Absolutely
Part 2 please!!
I’ll definitely work on more in the future. Thanks for your comment
You could do a whole video on the genius behind the Freefallin' arrangement alone.
Absolutely!
Hey mate, really great stuff. Particularly love the full band mixes. Great playing. Would love to know what you were using to get these guitar tones here?
Thank you! The amp tones are all coming from a Strymon Iridium. As far as pedals I've used a Nobels ODR-1, Boss SD-1, Red Witch Compressor, all the modulations and delays are coming from a Line 6 M9
@@ClaudeRuelle love it. Looking forward to more great videos from you
Would love to see more videos like this of other artists’ live bands. I vote Silk Sonic 👀
Thank you! Definitely working on more. Silk Sonic could be very cool to check out for sure
The guitar work in the acoustic set at the start of ‘where the light is’ will always blow me away. Between Robby and DRH, the Free Fallin’ arrangement is so PERFECT
Man I almost had forgotten about that! It's awesome for sure
Great video!
Where did you get that vultures version? It's really good 👍
It is a recreation of a bunch of version he used to play live during the continuum tour era
Take a look as Belief also. John talks about the different guitar parts and can hear every one in his head when he remembers recording them
Ah that's awesome! I'll check it out
@@ClaudeRuelle this reminds me of a video. It's titled how Isaiah's sharkly plays with John Mayer. And it's basically Isaiah playing through moving on and getting over and throughout some parts explains what he's doing and why he's doing it.
Bravo
Thank you!
wow. you’re really underrated :)
Thanks 😅
I agree he's one of the best
Please leave my phone or I will have to buy another one
Great job men! Can you share how do you get the backing tracks? thanks!
Thank you! I’ve created the backing tracks myself in Logic
❤❤❤
❤️
Dire Straits' - Calling Elvis live with two guitars and one steel pedal guitar is also a incredible performance. Highly recommended!
Ah cool! I’ll go check this out. Love Dire Straits
@@ClaudeRuelle Awesome video btw. Never seen a breakdown like this before
My metal heads mock me but they know I'm right...JM is elite.
Haha it’s all subjective at the end of the day
When I seen David Ryan Harris I immediately click the video.
Thank you! I love David Ryan Harris too
4:00 yea vulture works well with three instruments when you have a bassist that can cover as much ground as pino. Good video tho.
That's for sure, Pino's a monster
The 1975 on lives shows tend to stack up to 4 guitars un certain songs
Nice!
How the hell did he get Isaiah ? That's the golden boy right there.
For sure! Isaiah is a perfect match for this band
This is completely different from any guitar (JM) talk on youtube
Thanks a lot!
I love how obsessed american guitarists are with Hendrix and john mayer completely ignoring the fact that other countries like Japan blow all their music out of the water without competition. Guitar, drums, vocals, especially bass.
Japan has a great music scene for sure!
