This is how I play Why Georgia. Mainly just a run-through, but I do stop and explain certain points.

  • how did you first learn this song?

  • @allbranbuds I learn everything by ear, and from watching performances of whoever does the song. Random youtube videos of live performances of John playing it, and just paying close attention.

  • What guitar is that? I must own one!

  • @MeanStreet1981 It's a Taylor 214. I also have a review of it that I did on my channel, as well as the pickup system that I put in it.

  • Play some Fleetwood Mac songs! Second Hand News!!!

  • @kellogs62091 I like that suggestion! Which would be better, a cover or a tutorial?

  • Excellent tutorial! It would be great to see a cover of this song just to put all the pieces in order.........dont get me wrong, this video is more than sufficient :D

    One of the best videos of this song on the net!

    BTW, that guitar sounds very rich and well balanced.

    Good Job :D

  • I gotta say u play really clean, its great... so many people are really sloppy with playing john mayer songs so i never understood his playing till i just figured it out myself. great job!

  • your sound hole cover is super distracting, not in a bad way though

  • how long have you played? :) or had played when you made this vid. nice job!

  • wow. how in the world are you able to pic out differences in how he plays from different recordings? that's just mind blowing to me

  • Good overview of the song. BTW Nice woody sounding acoustic you got!

  • @byrnnryb

    how can i train to find it easier to learn songs by myself, it works with most , but since a while im stuck. i mean this bridge from middle to hard songs. i cant figure the hard ones out, and there are so many version of each. ah and one question, is mayer using a pick ( he often uses both in songs,, so maybe he switches fast here...

  • is john mayer playing with his pick between his fingers? i cant see it ...

  • Your playing is so neat. It sounds so clean.

  • Cool tutorial. 

  • did you learn how to play guitar by yourself, or did you do classes?
