Check out how John developed the motif. The interval jumps with slide are very John Mayer. At 0:17 John goes to BBking mode, which he explains at PRS silver sky demo; John Mayer | Guitar Musings with the PRS Silver Skyhttps://youtu.be/JO5SfbucSX0?t=160 Make sure to play slightly out of tune especially when you hit m3rd on pentatonic. You can bend up very slightly, which gives it bluesy taste. John explains about playing out of tune here; John Mayer | Behind the PRS Silver Sky Guitarhttps://youtu.be/_4aPrTzVxvU?t=124 Sorry about 0:23. haha It's the same principle as slide guitar. You can use anything like bottle neck etc. John did it with the car door, and I used Japanese traditional sandal, called Geta (下駄). 0:33 is Jimi Hendrix way of playing Major chord G, which is Gadd9 with 3rd string open. ---- About my channel --- I love John Mayer and Japanese City Pop, and I have other videos of guitar TABs, improvisation, covers for these kind of music!
