When I used to play at your level (which is actually not so bad) I had a 200 € gtr... Something like 220 bucks... and on a 10W amplifier from Hiwatt (80€).. You got a John Mayer model and a Hotroad deluxe.. uhmm...
sorry... not the whole time, only once you switched over to Lenny. Seems like you felt good keeping the bar in hand during that, but you kept it in tune with no picking problems. Great stuff!!
watch my newer stuff.. im getting better.. this was at the beginning of my mayer strat days.. not to say im any better.. but i can play this song much better.. now but not enough to compare to the pros all over youtube with this song.. such an awesome song
well, I give you an A for effort and spirit. just a little rough around the edges. fuck most of those guys. keep at it! check some of my vids out if you want. I get 4x the critism as you and still persevere. if I can do it, so can you!
hey these guys are cunts. you're doin a great job, it sounds like the fuckin song and you're trying. cant fault a person for trying to do something they love. plus, you have a set of the most highly coveted pickups on the planet by those cocks that want the sound but dont have the money to drop on a mayer strat or the pickups themselves on ebay!
SRV is rolling in his grave. You are so fucking disrespectful. Maybe you could learn how to play the guitar before trying to cover a great artist's song.
lolthis is old man, and arnt you being a little disrespectful? SRV would have respect for anyone who loves his music.. unless he was a complete ass. which i doubt it
also dont comment on somebodys playing when you dont even have videos on your channel.. and also dont comment on a SRV video if you favorited a song by lil wayne ..
do you get punchy tones with the hot rod?? cause i got mayer strat and i can get them with my frontman...my first amp lol but on my guitar teachers amp i dont
I found this while searching for vids on the Fender Hot Rod Deluxe. Nice glassy tone on your setup. I bet an Ibanez Tube Screamer would be a nice addition. That red version of the amp kicks ass.
lol the tremolo doesnt even go in the whole way on mine....im a noob when it comes to doing stuff to your guitar..how do you take the springs out and which ones do you take out
hehe no luck buying it from me! luckily the local city music store had 2 in stock .. this one . and the olympic white with mint green pickguard. you can order it from any fender authorized dealer for around 1500 if your american around 1999 if your canadian lol which I am . but we haggled the store and got it fro 1500 :)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
o ya one more thing. i would stand up when you do the videos and where some sick clothes that kinda go with the guitar. cuz itll will make you look BAD ASS. being awesome at guitar is only half of what its all about. the other half is just putting on a good show. so youve got the guitar skills now just through some bad ass style and acting into it and you'll be famous with me one day soon
hey man. good playin. thats a cool guitar. the only thing i dont like about the john mayer strats is the color. so im special ordering the big dippers for a black american standard
Play both before you decide. I have an SRV strat, and god i love it, but in terms of tonal versatility...You can make a lot of strats sound like an SRV, but its hard to make an SRV sound like anything else. Just thought you should know. Good luck.

i would review this as such: the disparity between what you can improvise and what you have practiced is painfully obvious
joshgreen19 1 year ago
the rhythym part was pretty good but you should learn some of the solo or improvise some leads...
its a good song for that.
peace.

good luck with that. fender doesn't sell the pickups by themselves. you may be able to pick them up on ebay for about 200 bucks EACH lol

I've heard that before.
I if I get either I might swap out single pickups ie like trade the middle for a Big Dipper, bridge for a Vintage Noiseless.
