A lot of hate in these comments. Personally I think I this is one of the coolest solos I’ve seen John do with the Dead. I love how the whole band rides the momentum of the solo right out. Such cool stuff. I always like seeing John jam over Watchtower. Check out the one from the 2023 Philadelphia show. I got to see it in person :).
He is a very large man. I had to good fortune to meet him at Mars Music near his apartment up '85 in 1999/2000 when he was still a pimply faced young man and got to put my fret hand over his and his fingers were at least an inch longer than mine and his left thumb is FREAKISHLY long. Like freak of nature long. Glad to see he has done so well from the stage at Eddie's Attic to the world!
Like Wes Watson said, if you aint fit you can't say its not all that, and if you aint rich than you can't say its not all that. Similarly, if you ain't good as John Mayer at the guitar, you can't say his playing is a snooze fest.
@@stephen3762 lol true I’m just the Wes Watson type of guy. Ultra muscle, big boob girl, endless money, huge cock, ultra cats, the guy every chick wants
Hilarious that John Mayer is wearing cargo pants and New Balance sneakers. Edit: Also hilarious the total lack of sense of humor by certain commenters on this thread. I remember in the old days at dead shows, there were always a bunch of dudes standing around near the tapers with their arms folded, critically dissecting the playing and song choices instead of dancing. Glad to know y'all are still here. PS: I love John Mayer.
A lot people love hating on John Mayer. Usually other guitarists who are jealous for one reason or another. I’m personally not a fan of his, but you can’t deny he is one of the modern great blues guitarists. His feel and understanding for the guitar is actually pretty insane.

Lol bringing in Wes Watson quotes wtf

And then he broke into Slow Dancing in a Buuuuuuuurning Room!!!
he always does
Nice
well,
jer felt it
and lived it
and shreds it ....
Is that an SE?
I don’t see an SE on the headstock, I’d bet it’s American at a minimum, and likely a custom shop.
I believe it’s the Dead Spec Silver Sky which is basically a private stock version of the guitar. They did a small batch run recently.
@@TylerJohnstonGuitar I think the maple neck and the color made me dream that Mayer plays an SE live. Does look custom, non-poly finish.
lol no, it’s this one ruclips.net/video/I9Sn1LXG4TI/видео.htmlsi=DKqx0G-Azz1w7ITE
It's Silver Sky Dead Spec that John used to play with Dead & Company. PRS released it too for limited numbers
When does the shred come in?

It's called fashion, sweetie
Why is that hilarious?
hillarious that that's the only thing you could focus on in this whole video
What do you have against comfort?
Nah the made in America tour watchtower is the best JM version. This isn’t great. Keys player is walking all over his junk. Dei dead.
"shreds". whatever
Not impressed.
Me too bro Mayer stinks
I don’t get it… dude is a snooze fest… so many better players in my opinion - keep trying to get into him but just can’t … guess it’s my problem, lol
Yep, it is your problem.
Can you shred like him? I’m guessing NOT. Your problem

He is a decent player, earnest, trying hard, but of course, he's not Jerry, nor is he a technically advanced player
his solo work is gimmicky but i think hes given the music the justice it deserves
One of the more overrated guitarist?
lol you're good humor
yes, by a long shot
the people were shown to be even dumber than we thought possible from covid
Way overrated. This guy bores me compared to the real greats like Van Halen, Brain May, Jimmy page and 100 others.
