  • Wow, you are absolutely terrific, you almost have a Stevie Ray Vaughn type of style.

  • this is wicked man good job

  • one of the best covers ever!

  • You are great. I had a very stressful day and somehow found your videos on here and every things better now! Keep it up!

  • Good job man. Nice tone and good phrasing. I would only add that a little more space (silent) will cause the listener to enguage more. One thing I do is never play a phrase longer than you can physically yalk with out taking a breath. Let your axe breath a little. Not being critical here. I liked it and your good. One other thing that would enhance your sense of stride is to play both in front and behind a little bit to add tension/resolve. Wish we lived close to each other so we could jam :)

  • @squatchy69 nice advice man !! thanks

  • Great cover! Sick guitar!

  • Pauly D?

  • i love this, dude! So smooth. I just bought this guitar also! Can't wait to fully break it in - the intonation needs tweaked a bit first, but other than that it sounded great right out of the box.

  • Great Job!! What strings do you use? Thanks.

  • Great job!!! Wich strings do you use in your fender? thanks.

  • good job

  • this is really good stuff! Keep up da good works!

  • Very nice. If just could let the melody breathe for longer....

  • Hey man. I'm wondering how you are playing that John Mayer lick at 1:35 in A pentatonic. If you got the time, please send some tabs. have a good one!

  • Sounds really good!! Good luck

  • Dude This Guitar Sounds Sick!!!!

  • amazing tone

  • Most improv is using many different scales, so practice your scales!

  • Hey, Did the JM strat come with a certificate? Is it american made?

  • @dataguide1 yes its american made (of course!) I'm pretty sure it comes with the certificate as well.

  • @dataguide1 Yes its American made but it has a vintage bridge and saddles so it looks mexi to some people.

  • John Mayer- Assassin Music Video Now Up On Youtube!

  • That is great playing, beautiful tone.

  • I check this every day, hoping you would post some tabs, chords.. .. really really looking forward to to man! =) THANK YOU!!!

  • So how bout those tabs man?...Or a how to video?? This was the best damn cover ever, i swear! I have to learn it. I kind of got some of it. But most the of the time your fingers are out of view =/

    little help? =) Thanks bro, your a badass guitarist!!!!!!

  • dude... awesome!.. The tone is perfect!... Tabs tabs!!!.. post a HOW TO video for this jam man!.. I can't find it on WTLI!

  • Good stuff, but you've got a loop pedal going right?

  • nice man!

    could you some of the riff you use?

  • man. all i can say is holy crap. you are seriously just incredible. never stop playing man, i envy you.

  • YEES sweeet bro!

    freaking owesome! When you close your eyes for a second i would have believed john was playen self! Could je send me some tabs !

  • YEAH !

  • heyy, its lily...

    this version is definitely not as good as the live performance because you didn't cry =P

  • holy shit!

    fuckin awsome dude!!

  • Amazing tone !

  • Unbelievable. Spot on with the tone. A definite John Mayer style with your own twist. Well done!

  • very well done... do me a favor by keeping it up

  • what amp are you using? please i need to know!

  • hey, cool jam dude. a def 5 . check out my jam version if you want to.

  • Hey buddy - great work. I just ordered that guitar I'll be getting it this week and can't wait. Coupla questions if u got the time.. What equipment r u using to get the most out of that tone you have? Also, I'm not a bad player, but I really wanna advance in that same style u excel in. So what advice can you offer if I'm looking to develop the kind of improv technique u have. I realise that question is broad, but I'd be grateful for your direction! What to study, how to model it etc...Cheers

  • @chaos4316 Thanks, I was playing through a hot rod deluxe amp using a boss looping pedal. I set the reverb to about 3. the bass at about 6/7 and treble/mid to 5. i use the rhythm pickup and put the tone to about 6/7 gives it a smoother tone. basically just listen to artists that you like and learn their songs/licks. for example listen to this song on where the light is and learn all the solo parts that john plays and use that when you play other songs. a good ear will help. good luck

  • Well done. I'm trying to play this song atm....

  • you should have just taken this and called it your own song, man its good ! I love that tone... Man what you can get from a strat .. It's crazy :P Reverb and a bit of gain right?

  • And I love how you touch the melody at 4:15. Masterful.

  • Unbelievable tone. JM would love this.

  • you have me droooling all over these notes,

    you're like magic on a guitar...

    i can't tell you how many times i've listened to this over and over.

    beautifulllll playing skillz.

  • very well done...some awesome licks in there dude! Keep it up.

  • awesome played!

  • I love the tone man! really bluesy

  • Sweet jesus thats amazing tone!

  • good one..

  • Thats a really great tone, whats your setup?

  • That loop at the beginning is unreal, and then the playing over it is sublime..

    So cool that your not just copying Mayer's song but you made it your own with the same feel

  • tht doesnt sound like the song at all but ur pretty good

  • According to keith ritchards

    "music that the felling you got in your bones and when is in your bones it's in your bones " this guy feels the music!!! wow

  • i dont comment on videos much man but one word. BAAAAAAAADDDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!! great playing, i can only dream of getting to that skill level man. nice

  • nice sound, but yah a little singing wouldn't have hurt

  • wow.

    but, would love to hear you sing!

  • hows the feel of his strat ? atm im into les pauls but i might invest in a start.

  • hah thats cute like a wee hamster :D sing godamn it :D

  • that jm strat has such a smooth tone.

  • wow this made me teary eyed. this is my fav song ever and you managed to make it better! beautiful. John would be proud

  • This guy is a beast.

  • great cover man i love it ;)

    keep up the good work

  • dude, amazing truly breathtaking.

    lil tip for you from one guitarist to another

    once you started getting into it you were going to fast and you lost some emotion, slow down. Feel every note from your feet to your fingers.

    cheers

  • awesome

  • Great sound, is it fender/fender?

    You have great timing, I want to post a responce....because that was fucking inspiring.

  • wow u r amzing:)

  • This is unexpectedly amazing. You've manage to capture the mood of the song and made it original.

    It's equally as amazing as your cover of "gravity".

    5/5

  • DUDE!! WOW great tone, but more than anything great feel!! Ur a monster. Real subtle, but perfectly places notes. The phrasing is good too... If u want to hear a guy that really knows how to build a solo listen to Derek Trucks. Or old Allman Brothers with Duane Allman.

  • what amp setup are you using?

  • When I started watching this, it was by mere accident.

    I was just about to go back when I actually started to listen and realized that what you were playing sounded beautiful. With my deepest sincerity I wish to say: Bravo! Great job.

  • HOLY CRAP!!

    this is the best cover of this song on youtube =D

    well done Buddy! Sounds SOoo SEXY!! the strat :)

  • hey man, sounds good! i have a question though, did you take out some of the springs to install the trem or did you leave it at five?

  • thanks, i just left it at five

  • mmmmmmm delicious

  • wow dude, respect. how did you get that tone?

  • where did you get the backing track?

  • think he used a loop pedal, nothing the rhythm he did in the beginning :)

  • that was fuckin beautiful dude. you kept me there for 5 minutes and 10 seconds. how long you been playin?

  • fuckin hell man that was sweet tasty licks!!!

  • i like the way you move man
