I can play guitar, write songs, twitter incessantly, be self-deprecating in a calculating way, and score sex with hot actresses and singers..... therefore... I must be admirable. I can't believe how many of you stand-up for a guy like John Mayer. Each one of you is why guys get a bad reputation. Precisely because you empower and encourage this kind of BS in other men. What happened to chivalry, courage, letting your art speak for itself, humility, grace, compassion, wisdom. I see none of these in evidence by John Mayer on a regular basis---unless it serves to get him his preferred drug of choice, attention. He is not someone to be admired, thought highly of, or applauded. Most of his songs are rip-offs, are completely calculated. He says as much in his interviews. There is nothing unassuming and natural about him. He is not the blues. He's someone who can't get out of his own {censored}ing way to save his life and time will reveal this. And just because he is popular now don't mean {censored} in the long-term. i completely respect your opinion, but can you relay the ripoffs? Your right about him not being blues though, continuum proved he's folk, R&B, soul, blues, pop, and rock. -

He's since said that he told himself that he was going to be wide open in interviews, no holds bar, and now he sees that he might need to tone it down a bit. He's essentially a comedian, just check out clips of the show he used to have on vh1, their close to chappelle show quality. -
So Angus Young just plays straight into his Marshalls?
fabstrat replied to EADGBE's topic in Electric Guitars
are we thinking of the same 60's and 70's? -

fabstrat replied to EADGBE's topic in Electric Guitars
the band has a great rock & roll sound, but it is just TOO repetitive for me, almost like its a joke no-adays due to how repetitive it seems. their tone is trumped by the complexity/evolution in many rock bands throughout the 60's and 70's. -

nvm, i figured it out. the fender picks are made from celluloid which warps and breaks down in no time. -

looks like they don't fly the Marshall flag. I have a feeling if those aren't vintage, they never came out of a Marshall factory. -

Eddie Van Halen. Why do you love him? Why do you hate him?
fabstrat replied to DaveAronow's topic in Electric Guitars
but much of morello is misunderstood. His whole approach was to be the dj on guitar AND he doesn't play with much gain but plays very loud. RAGE was also one of the best produced bands of all time. There debut album is considered one of the pinnacles of studio sound and is sometimes used to test speakers, much as early VH was. Tom Morello IS the VH of the 90's though. -

most guitar players are "off-the-cuff" MAYBE 15-20% of the time. -

he's actually a classically trained pianists, so musically he's probably MORE inclined than hendrix, beck, etc. -
