The thing at 2:16 is just about the best thing that's ever been played on a guitar.

@@emilianomachado3499 Yeah, you're right about that. I've got to listen to some more Prince!

John Mayer's Covered in Rain has the most amazing solos a song can have, in my opinion.

Not tiring to watch this repeatedly, so magical especially the solo,🔥🔥🔥🔥

This is THE version of “Covered in Rain” for me. It just gives me all the feels. And those “Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeahs” at the end - whew! Hits you deep in the soul! Epic version of an epic song.

The solo gives me chills everytime...

It's been seven years when I first saw this video and this solo still blows me away

What about 13

I knew it would be Covered In Rain when he brought out that guitar. That guitar has only been getting played during CIR and Heart of Life. He also played Heart of Life that night, a song I didn't think would make it on this tour.

His playing evolved so much over the years. As he got older he played slower and far more melodically, but still absolutely shreds at key moments. Mayer has an immense appreciation and respect for music, anyone can see he considers himself a student always.

He is just amazing. His guitar playing is so creative both technically and musically.

Anyone who was there must've been standing with their jaws somewhere close to their feet. I'd say that these 6 minutes or so are enough reason to keep on living.

Definitely my favorite Mayer song. The guitar solo part takes me to another dimension.

This version and the Any Given Thursday versions are the best, for sure.

i knew they were playing heart of life cause they practiced it during soundcheck. My two friends and me got to the concert 6 hours early and watched the band soundcheck and mayer jog around the venue. It was awesome.

that solo... I'm in tears damnit.

The SRV Strat John is playing...is simply a masterpiece.

What an insane solo! Love him...

Drums are extra groovy on this performance

He is once again playing this on rare occasions for this tour... I am going to Cleveland and Pittsburgh.... If he plays it, it will be posted!

THIS IS AMAZING!

i was at this show... he seemed awfully spacey and goofy that night... think he was high?... he had an awesome night for solos... crossroads was fantastic

I love when he uses his srv strat

Epic. Love this guy

2:16 That riff! I'm in

4:00 still gives chill man.

IMO, his 2008 tour was defs the best. He played all the brilliant songs off of continuum, AND he threw in gems like this =0 i wish i could have been there.

thanks man. Hard to tell them apart

@ imprezzi, The jm sig was spawned off the SRV strat that he's playing here. Few things to look out for, the stevie ray vaughn signature on the headstock and the Left handed bridge tremolo.

Sick~~!

Talk about being locked in and in the zone.

Sensual

During the solo, you can se the gold, and the lefty tremolo. it is the SRV strat.

oh my god....

sick

Un.be.lievable.

AGREED!

Yup, that's what I pointed out too

FACIAL EXPRESSIONS. Damn you, John!

See the Lefty bridge. Definitely an SRV sig dude.

Please Play it live in 2013 :)

@YolondaHayes there is no gold hardware, thats his own signature one, first one to be exact, he wanted it to look just like Stevie's. If you look up Lenny/Man on The Side you can see it too. he isnt using Stevie's

Thats definitely a JM sig. strat not a SRV. Pretty much the same except the pickups are modified Texas Specials-Fender calls them Big Dippers. And the neck is slightly different.

always love watching him play, but looks like he needed a cheeseburger

Well.

So true. That is the best part of a solo I think I've ever heard. And I've had my share of them. I cringe every time I hear that riff.

John Byers no cringe is negative.

Damn that solo is insane, how the hell does he know the right notes to play, like how does he combine all those scales into one solo.

I was speechless as well. So good.

oops, my bad, didnt see the left handed tremelo. my apologies, you were right.

The thing at 2.16 is also player in the solo of "Til summer comes around" with Keith Urban. Annoying snare... ;)

no that one's his. the srv one, that he changed the pick guard on, has gold hardware.

thats a john mayer strat, not a srv

its actually the SRV strat...

Man it's a dead ringer for my JM strat....lol

he looks really skinny...
