John Mayer - Half of My Heart

[mayerfan09]

dude great playin keep up the good work :D

[dnnysrock]

the pentatonic scale right

but i think he uses dorian mode for the lead guitar stuff in te song .

that solo fits more for the ouro of belief maybe ? keep rockin

[fender210]

makes me want a decent strat all the more. my strat is just a cheap and poorly made guitar (decided to make it my punk guitar). athough i do have an SG but at times i still crave that strat sound

[sanderjoeperry5]

is it a yamaha?

[BryceShuster]

@sanderjoeperry5

the guitar? yes

[James071589]

slow it down a little, play with a little more feeling... when you start out fast theres really nothing else to look forward too in the rest of the solo... start out slow and then rip it later on

[juanitoshow]

at the beginning was perfect , then ... everything was going down

thank you

[theosu809]

less is more

[kozi989]

what scales did u use?

[rubenology]

the secret is not just playing .. but playing with soul. you got the skill now slow it down and play with the heart .. it would sound better.

[beybedba]

did yea use Bb major scale>?

[asyong09]

sounds like eric clapton!!!u got a lot of clapton influence with u man!!

[rks327]

Don't make it so busy and it would sound better

[matjuhhh007]

which loop station did you used here? something like an boss rc 20?

[BryceShuster]

its the small compact one.

boss rc-2

[RyanAdamsJackson]

dam i wish there were more people like you and me in stockton i swear im the only one out here.

[mvw5555]

damn how old are you?

[mattster323]

what was the chord progression you played?

[vigyd]

WOW!!!! That was AMAMZING! Wicked solo man, i'm just learning the guitar but eventually i wanna be as good as you are. Do you have any pointers?

[BryceShuster]

lol i know im going to sound lame, but practice :P

just mess around a lot. learn a few songs. get to know the neck of the guitar. what each note is going to sound like before you play it.

[ak231510]

nice job

[sof0722]

Really awesome, sounds alot like a clapton solo

[teamlowe21]

Bryan

Great Job! What are you using for your loops (i.e. JamMan, BossRC20XL)?

[BryceShuster]

Boss Rc-2

[IanGuitarhero]

this looks lieka yamaha EG112 from sears lol

[BryceShuster]

lol i got mine from costco when i first started out playing.

a lot people rag on this guitar but in the right hands it can sound pretty good. the only problem ive had with it is the tone cuts out every once and a while so it goes to 10 automatically. but u just give it a hit on the fret board and it cuts back :P

[IanGuitarhero]

haha yeha i turned mine into a john mayer relic strat. check out my video of it

[BryceShuster]

thats really nice.

i actually wanted to make mine look warn like that.

how did you strip it? and what did you use?

[IanGuitarhero]

just sand paper is certain spots.. got lots of blisters going it

[BryceShuster]

how long did it take?  and what grade of sand paper?

[IanGuitarhero]

A while man.. all sorts i just used a high grade then a low grade and then knifes and stuff liek that

[BryceShuster]

thanks

[racerx3065]

did you hear the studio version or the live acoustic one?

[BryceShuster]

the live one, i think it was on the mayercraft. with the 3 acoustics.

i did hear the mayermusic one that john posted but i couldnt hear much from that to create a loop

[dwmfender13]

Dude if slow down and just kind of let the notes ring out and slide around youd have a tasty solo for the song. Slow down bro ... but I like evreything else man. Groove man groove

[tolleck]

the solo needs some dynamics but cool video.

[sean123654]

ALL YAS FUCK UP!!!!! LOL ya no what i love.....mayers gonna tour with this song and people are already playing bits of his lead breaks that hes gonna play......that incredible to see! HUMANS WERE FUCKING CRAZY ANIMALS!!!! LOL rock and roll peace

[alexrempel12390]

Build it up a bit more to that solo. It was a bit too much. But I liked the feel, as opposed to some people commenting. Good job, though! =D

[mikemusicman]

very good build up but it got messy coming to the solo probzz u got really into it but chill out abit more lol

[OwensMusic1]

try to move more in the solo.. and your too fast for yourself to handle

[leoabbada]

nice loops building..

fucking shitty solo!!

you've ruined everything with that!!!

[berti12tura]

good solo but try to build it up and go all out gradually

[KrisSzupa]

The solo is kind of out of place.. doesn't fit at all. The rest isn't that bad though.

[Jst0911]

its at least in the same key

[calicom110]

@KrisSzupa dont listen to these fags, it was good

[KrisSzupa]

@calicom110 No I agree.. It was a great cover all-in-all especially with the use of the loop. I just honestly would have played a milder solo to really let everything else that was going on in the song/layers to shine.

[hugohorse]

ha ha ha, I like the part where you play the e string with your fingers in a bass guitar position to make it sound like a bass ??? you do know that doesn't change the sound?

[BryceShuster]

you mean with my right hand?

i just played it like that because its easier playing the 8th notes like then rather than picking it with my fingers.

[rebelskull18]

very awesome man. Mad licks. good skill... piece of advice, play a lil more melodic, and be aware of over playing... Very sic though. Inspiring.

[nathanhoule27]

very well done. the solo is wonderful too but to be completely honest, from my intake, I found the solo to be a little out there and ballsy for this type of song. just from my intake though. awesome job overall!

[vtwin1]

Great solo, and i agree with orlandobot, very Clapton influenced

[JBeatty17]

Nice work

[Orland0bot]

Great solo, very Clapton inspired.

[callyjohnwell]

JM is the man.

Rock on dude, lovin' all your videos, my type of music.

[baynicole012]
