Lesson / Example of John Mayers Neon

I did this for a friend and this was the only way to share it. I'm not that flash but these are my thoughts on playing it from forums etc. Editing is average but fire up comments for sure. Enjoy.

First, John Mayer is amazing!! Watching him play this song from the Live LA video seems to show that he uses his thumb for the low E (or low C!) throughout the whole song... Feels a bit easier than trying to hit those chords with 4 fingers...

Also, I dont suppose you could send a link for the full tab to this song please nzcoops?? I got one, but i dont think its completely right...

Nice video though! very helpful!!

you're probably not critizising your own work correctly...

if you can play the song better than me with never touching a guitar before 3 months ago, I'll commit suidice. If i win, i get all your dads money your and your parents money.

deal?

Fuck the "only index and thumb!" thing, I use all of ny fingers and it sounds better. And also that last chord change in the intro is wrecking me, you were very right when you said it was the hardest

[DEDSREIS]

you forget the last chord in the Chorus man, 0-4-5-6-0-5

@AcousticNugeman why is that stupid again? beginners always say they got the hang of it while actually they dont. i maybe exxagerated a bit sorry for that but it is true though

[AcousticNugeman]
