Jim Beam is also owned by the Japanese now.

Around Gadsen
Around Gadsden, not in it. Gadsden is basically a small scale version of Baton Rouge, minus a huge campus and good food. Drive 30 minutes up hey 431 to Guntersville. Buy house on the lake.

You can't be serious. What about the recruits that are told to get their families and get the frick out of your state?
Dylan Moses is the latest example of their hospitality. The recruiting board burned to the ground when he verbally committed to Alabama.

I guess so. But ultimately this boils down to subjective opinion, really. Mayer is a fantastic guitar player and I think he can hang with just about anyone. I think his obsession with tone has brought him a long way, too.
Subjective is definitely the key. I think the trio is cool. It's fun to listen. I've been playing guitar for 20 years and am very much eclectic when it comes to music taste and influences. Everything from string cheese to exodus. My roots are in classical though. I want to feel what the player is trying to tell me.

especially considering that he's really a rock guitarist
True, but not really in the conventional sense though. It depends on the album. Sometimes he's blues, sometimes he's jazz, sometimes shred.

Technically in blues does not matter. It's about your audience feeling what you're playing. BB King songs are not hard to play, but no one will will match his intensity and vibrato in his bends. When he played, you felt what he was feeling. Every player is different in that aspect.

Ok. I went with alive guitarists.
In no particular order.
Robin trower
Walter trout
Eric Gales
Kenny Wayne shepard
Derek trucks
Joe bonamassa
Jonny lang
Warren Haynes
Dickey betts
Guthrie Govan.
That's not including the greats, who are still alive and touring. All of which Mayer couldn't follow. I get it though. Mayer is a good guitarist, but commercialism made him up to be the next SRV. He's not. He seems like a cool guy, but he doesn't know the blues. He's just a fricking suburban kid who found a Clapton tab book.

This is definitely the case. It's not that he cares about what is said, as long as whatever is said is about him.

Oh, if you think he's a douche now, you should see the /r/guitar circle jerk about him. He's there second fave, behind Guthrie Govan(who is legit). It's disgusting.

Yeah, he's more of the Tennessee in the Alabama rivalries. No need to subject LSU to that abuse. :lol:
