John Mayer - "Slow Dancing On Mulholland Drive" Guitar Cover

This is just a really quick thing I recorded when my friend let me borrow his amp for a day... it's not meant to be an exact copy of Mayer's version and it's kept very simple. If I could get all of these views back on a new video then I would record it again and make it better! I'm looping with a Boss ME-70 into a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe. Recorded with iMovie '08.

where did u get the tabs?

[mooneymusic]

@Ovation1771AX I worked it out by ear... but you could get a tab for the Continuum version just by searching on Google, then learn the C sharp minor pentatonic scale to improvise over the top of the rhythm parts!

Are you recording the audio through the camera?

[mooneymusic]

@thephamcookiemonster Nope, the amp is miked up and I'm recording the audio through a mixer into Logic Pro. At the same time, the video is being recorded with the built-in camera on my Mac into iMovie. Then it's just a case of syncing the 2 together!

Awesome man. What's your settings on your boss me-70?

[mooneymusic]

@InspiredProphecy Thanks dude! As far as I can remember, I just used the ME-70 for the loop station. So no effects, just straight into the Fender Hot Rod Deluxe. I tend to take the treble down to around 4 and the bass/mids up to 6 or 7 for amp settings.

Awesome tone and real sweet playing ...... I like your personal touches to this great tune ..... well done!!

[MusicOfKeng]

What guitar is that?

[tylerdavisss]

Where did you pick up that Manito New Orleans?! I've been trying to get a hold on one, but i just cant seem to find one.

[MyBottletree]

You've got it

[azwan1992]

My god! The tone...

[SkirtSoPlain]

I mean sorry to clutter up your page, but this is the closest thing to sounding like Mayer himself than I have found anywhere on youtube with the many covers. If John Mayer himself were messing around he might play it this way. Dude, I hope I can be this good some day. If I were this good, I would play for myself every night and be able to enjoy my own sounds instead of concentrating just to try to play something.

this is really really good. no need for the defensiveness in the description!!
