Song For George - Eric Johnson (JW)

[drneme]

AMAZING!!!

[misscarolinec]

Damn..... I want to make love to that guitar!!!!

[JetzMorrison]

maybe have you got the tabs ?

thanks

[slayersidd]

Great playing, a real inspiration! Loved the 'jam' section at the end. Very classy. Cheers!

[geogreg27]

Splendid guitar playing. You sound amazing. cheers.

[stockholm17]

You're a fantastic player. And that guitar isn't bad either — I know 'cause I own and play an identical DY45 (1985), which I bought in a pawn shop for $125. A hugely under-rated instrument.

[TheTyler901]

My jaw dropped...

[babyboy3601978]

Awesome job on a classic Eric Johnson song

[Ccbroo]

a guy that is a good picker, aswell as a good fingerpicker, and sounds good on acoustic and electric,, is a good guitar player. Easy math.

[dougzuckerman]

nice job!

[DadzorRules]

Nice! You've definitely got talent, kid. Keep on pickin!

[GuitarJorgen95]

[NewFriiiikan]

Hey whats the tuning on this? I covered it on open D...is that your tuning?

[dropheadmorgan]

@NewFriiiikan the proper tuning for this is drop d. both the high and low e down to a d

[NewFriiiikan]

@dropheadmorgan

so DADGBD

[Airsoftinsight]

Ladykilla'! - not even James Bond wud cud get laid compared to these guitar skills

[PeaceAlex1]

[gherof]

Si vede da come suoni che hai davvero la passione per questo magnifico strumento ossia la chitarra! hai tutti la mia stima :)

[Imboli]

this guy got the power

[SIJAR]

I play just the same type of guitar like you,

So glad to see this, I thought the music that I'm interested in won't ever be appreciated.

[riccardoarca]

mi sa che devi studiarti meglio un passaggio..

[Mophisto666]

dude rocks straight up

[DMARKETTE]

[toodance]

luv-a-luv-a-luv. . helluva musician

what does the CMS stand for (detector)?

[MooneYoungBlood]

I've started learning this song, and I have got up to about.. 0:30 down pat (only quite slower). I really enjoyed watching your cover, it was very well done.

[SanDiegoNico]

Good job on a tough song.

[redlynx69]

ITS JASON MRAZ!

[guitarshredder47]

[ItsJustMe784]

i want to be you.

[daviddafo]

excellent

[ftele]

Nice work...steady flow of awesome blues...~

[TheRopesman]

Well done. I'm still in awe at that song (not even close to playing). If you like classical acoustic, check out Eduardo Diaz.

[MrMasonsPlacement]

sweet man. i found it hard to take you seriously at first with the setting etc, but the playing speaks for itself. im trying to smash this song out at the moment, but all i have with me is my nylon. makes its sound mega gypsy haha.

enjoyed it, can tell you enjoy it too.

[peterstrohm]

How anybody can dislike this cover is beyond me - you'e playing great and even the tone is right there. Good playing, keep on rocking.

[mikevan12975]

just feel like i would have liked it more if you were just chillin in normal clothes. you know, lost the backdrop, and were just jamming in your living room or somthing. the backdrop and the outfit are to much for me .. playing was good though.

[MoonManG90]

its not really a song :/

[derbastihalt]

awesome

[derbastihalt]

awesome

[CodyPettengill]

Mr. Wetzel! Glad to see you still jammin away on guitar man! Even tho this video is a wee old now its still a good choice to cover man!

I finally got some videos up after all this time! The quality is not the greatest but it gets the point across, if you'd like to check them out!

[ki426]

Awesome playing, excellent rhythm. Sounds just like the master himself. This video, along with your others ones, have inspired me to focus a lot more on my guitar playing. How many hours a day do you practice?

[Totalmachine09]

This makes me want to learn how to play

[kotlarix]

Hi man, nice to hear music like this

[SamPabloKuper]

Damn, I'm going to have to invest the next decade of my life learning this one. Loved the song for the last ten years or so, but never dared attempt to play it myself!

[TSOfan]

Nice axe dude! I had an Avlarez, actually two a classical guitar and an acoustic

[DEEPERBLU98]

I LOVE THAT YOU ARE NOT PERFECT: You are better than that... a soulful %%^^&

[tangentzgoldie]

Holy Shit!!

[LarsGuitars92]

He's using thin strings..!

[jwwetzel]

I'm using .13s, thin compared to bridge cables, I guess.

[LarsGuitars92]

13s? That's real thick! You're bending the strings like you're using 10's.. Your a great player! thnx for the reply

Lars

[jwwetzel]

@LarsGuitars92 my strat has .10's on em! haha :) rock on

[vince1020301]

@jwwetzel strats should have .09

my les paul has .13s too:D

[kads95]

@jwwetzel what make is this guitar

[48MotoX]

haha nice

[a1gold174]

13's on an acoustic arer the standard size... it's like using 9's or 10's on an electric..

[cmgstringbender]

@jwwetzel lol, my acoustic has 11s and my electrics have 12's ...go figure

[Groongers]

@jwwetzel - hhhehehe. Clean performance (and good strings).

[rudyos]

Congrats' dude! Nice work!

[NetoResendiz]

[inchskater]

I definately have to start learning that song.

Your version is very impressive !

[MirurImage]

James, You are a blessed artist...stay straight and true to your craft and we will be reading about you someday. BTW your acoustic stuff is awesome, electric is off the hook, just saying...people love unplugged...its where the talent is raw and obvious.

[boldasdylan]

can you do a lesson? haha. i freaking love this.

[broadwaybaby915]

So like months later (because i'm a slacker and i'm pretty sure I didn't comment on this vid)

good work, man! :)

[edenator]

i cant seem to get the rhythm down properly...

[cxd090]

Awesome job dude, I imagine that is hard as hell to play and fast paced for acoustic..

[ou812bass]

what other songs have this sound?

[kingster911]

Great job, but damn ten years? Why not just make your own BETTER song then?

[jwwetzel]

what do you mean?

[chrisbenoitlt]

he means that you were trying to master this song for ten years, and in those ten years you could have done better song than this one :)

[FISHGOMOO4321]

He means, make your own tune in this way :)

[ou812bass]

thats wat i did

[lisalavie1]

Next time I see you, I have to convince you to give me a quick guitar lesson hehe

[jwwetzel]

Lisa - duhhhhhhh!!!

[CarlosPinto88]

Sweet pickin' James!

[xRosexThornsx]

So I just bought my very first guitar this past week, and I've been shopping around for instructors. I've been flat out turned down by 7 different people because it's a left handed guitar. Awesome.

Makes me a saaaad panda.

[DoRayMeFa]

Mr. Jamez,

Your playing is just as amazing this time, as it was last month! (I say this in a non-stalkerish sort of way.)

[fangirl4ever2007]

Seems like I heard this song in a movie.. maybe the one with George Clooney " Oh Brother where art thou?: lol It was great .

[DoRayMeFa]

Hmm.

Fanny's sharing this vid a month after it was posted.

Sure sign of a stalker.

Fanny ♥ JasonMraz

[fangirl4ever2007]

awesome sound james! I didn't get this sent to me.! I also like how the guitar blends in with the background red hehehe

shared and fav'd, 5 *****

[ace77man]

James!!!! I didn't get this in my sub box for some reason. But I would like to say this is the first video I have ever seen with you palyin' an acoustic :) Very smooth brother, very smooth......... (allow the playah through the damn door!!!!! There is business at hand) :)

Peace, ace77man

[CaptainCheeseCurl]

I love how your fret markers like glow in this vid.

[sistianatube]

my oh my!! I love you.

[SqwishTV]

This is superb, James! As Victor said: "You play from the inside out". Fav'ed and featured video this week on my channel. All the stars for you. Regards, Jeff

[Mariekesone]

Wow, yes no breathing aloud ...ongoing fingerprints...no stopping...

Absolutely wonderful:-)

[jimbobanalbeats]

Jeez man. You are a talented dude. Very impressive. Go make some fuckin money with that shit.

[Jazzguts]

Very good James, I'm impressed,although I don't like that word,we're not actually making Music to impress. We owe our best that's given to us to our ART. That's what you're doing here, giving your very best,my friend. You're a guy who's soaked in talent, you play as we say in Zen: "from the inside-out". That's the way of the true musician, never dwell from this path my friend you're right on it, Saludos Vic( thanks for your friendship and your ears).

[JILLMOL]

This one is great, what a feel, you're good man, really niiiiice;-)

[raigpond]

You definitly got the style Bro!

Your skills are still so amazing!

Great job.. This is a tricky song.. And you've got it! Beautiful.

[jwwetzel]

bergercurtis - haha by showing me what NOT to do :) hhehehe

[wangsack]

That was pretty darn clean my man. Pretty darnnned clean.

reverb was a nice touch. Have to have reverb on this song.

[jwwetzel]

Frank - yea, I'd say it's 98.6 % complete. Absolutely need the heavy reverb for sure. Sounds like babies being created in a pristine environment out of crystals.

[HeBckoe]
