a better response would be, who cares about the poll! ha!
mayer is a better guitar player than most of us; the girls like him because he is cute and he is a young gun guitar player. what more could he want? ha! ha!

I am guessing at least some of you saw my post in the other thread. Some of you were even angry with me. I voted who cares. He is good not great. I am just tired of every thread on high end guitars hearing about his 30K guitar at home.

I'm not a lead player myself so I can't judge his playing technically, but when i watch and listen to him playing electric guitar I'm moved. I don't say that lightly. He's invited to play with all the 'legends' and is right at home if not more interesting (imo).
I understand he's not a likeable sort, but he can play with the best and his licks are not predictable - like many I hear. JMO tho...

For me.......
Not a real fingerstylist like TE or LJ etc...... but, Way better than average acoustic player Way Way better than average electric player (Tone, melody etc...) Great singer and songwriter...... A bit tough to "watch" sometimes :-)...... Last edited by Ivan Lee; 08-24-2011 at 11:42 AM.

He's one artist where I don't understand the strong reactions one way or another. Seems quite a good player. Voice is fine, not overwhelmingly great, but I'd have though not so distinctive as to cause a big reaction.
Gotta be the hot girls or the signature models driving the reaction? "I don't care" seems to strong a reaction even. He's fine.

Fine song writer and performer. He's unique, and he can play the guitar. At one point I was ho-hum, just never sat down to listen. Once I connected with some of his stuff and realized the variety of styles he covers competently, I was impressed.

Initially I wrote him off. then I heard a bootleg copy of the solo acoustic demos for his "Room for Squares" album. I was blown away by it. Underneath all of the production and hype lies a very talented songwriter and guitar player.
