    @dudeman5790 Haha yeah. If BBKing thinks he’s good enough to jam with, no one else matters.

    I like how Mayer is …
    I like how Mayer is humble in front of the great BB King. A lot of people think he is a complete ass, but he knows when to be modest and humble.

    im so sad when i see bb king very old and unable to play like early yeaurs very sad but this mother fucher mayer is so good, im not afraid for the blues in the future

    he made Mr. King angry!

    @ycomp he plays a …
    @ycomp he plays a cherry ES 335 sometimes. very similar to BB’s guitar, which he used heavily when he toured with the “john mayer trio”. he usually uses it on “i’m gonna find another you” and “come when i call”.

    even so….who …
    even so….who cares? He sells more CD’s than you or I or 99% of all the other blues guitarist, and he’s getting blues out to thousands of mainstream listeners! How the is that a bad thing? He’s making millions, hes winning grammys. As I tell everyone who criticizes any musician, there is no good or bad, theres only what you like and what you dont like. Shit, I would emulate SRV if I could.

    Mayer is now really …
    Mayer is now really good, much better then he was before. For example Crossroads 2007… He was really really good. Of course B.B. is simply B.B :) But i think John is one of the best young blues players….

    i’m pretty sure that was a pablo picasso quote, talking about art

    John Mayer wasn’t …
    John Mayer wasn’t great but I have to say he pulled it off quite nicely.
    and you can’t compare Mayer to the King.

  12. ycomp Says:

    I wonder what mayer …
    I wonder what mayer would sound like playing B.B.’s guitar? I like mayer (of course I like BB better) but I’m thinking he could sound better if he changed the way his guitar sounded…

    “You keep that up, …
    “You keep that up, ill get up and walk!”

    none taken dude, bb king is the real deal
    and its nice to see the kid paying his respect

    heck, if i were bb king id wanna have mayer as a student

    it looks like bb king is thinking “i am not about to let some pasty white boy show me up” lol
    no offense anyone

    @Luckool actually i do, but that’s neither here nor there.

    like once said Yoda, up the shut fuck, you don’t know what you’re talking about ;)

  19. sleepwhenimdead Says:

    At least John …
    At least John admitted that all he does is steal other blues players’ sounds. He’s a good songwriter/arranger. He’s a great technical guitar player. And he’s a great copycat. But he’s never gonna be a bluesman. Listen to his solo after B.B. There’s no balls. There’s no soul. It’s not what he does, it’s how he does it. Jonny Lang and Kenny Wayne Shepherd will always blow him out of the water.

    listen to popa chubby – same old blues and enjoy!!

    I’m going to throw a name that most of you haven’t heard of, but Matt O’Ree, he won the Guitar Center King of the Blues competition, he’s an amazing guitar player for his age

  22. psychoactivepaper Says:

    He isn’t even …
    He isn’t even playing rhythm during the rhythm parts… You think he would at least not look like he’s trying to fake it…

  23. nicosfi Says:

    you are very very …
    you are very very wrong, that would be Jack White

  24. murfdog19 Says:

    Derek Trucks is …
    Derek Trucks is okay, but he does what he does; and nothing more. Mayer is a much more versatile guitar player.

    cant believe im seeing bad comments about john mayer,get real,hes an amazing musician,no arguing that.
