    Will using a strumming pattern thats the same as another song get me sued?

    Wrote a song, the verse guitar part has the same strumming pattern as No such thing by John Mayer. What I want to know is if this can get me sued. The chords I'm using for the verses go from Bmaj9 chord to Emaj9. The Chorus and bridge use a different strumming pattern so I’m not too worried...

    Hello everyone, hope you are all well and healthy I just made a quick cover of John Mayer's Gravity, but I made it really sad by changing the key to mostly minor.

    I like Sob Rock because I can cover some of the songs (difficulty level is not too high). Shouldn't matter but it does, acoustic cover. I have created/recorded the whole thing with GarageBand and my guitar, of course...

    Mayer Sits in With David Ryan Harris 2/4/20

    Great jam with David Ryan Harris & Friends. John is playing the new Silver Sky Nebula which is very cool and sounds great. All these players are killers though. You may recognize the trumpet player from the Dave Matthews Band and the keyboardist sits in often with local LA collective, Scary...

    John Mayer itself goes through design of Silver Sky

    Found it really interesting since everyone is talking about it. He explains sound aspects as well as shape design aspects. Nice of him to share such a deep view on his signature guitar. Personally Id buy a fender before a SS, but... to each their own, and this guy is having his own...

    Hey guys, Looking into getting an amp. I am looking for a tube amp which can help capture John Mayer's tone as a whole but in particular the Continuum era. So far I have been able to narrow it down between a Two Rock Studio Pro 22 Head, or a 65' Deluxe Reverb Reissue. My budget is to keep...

    Wow...First Dead Show Last Night in Philly. O.o

    So I'm a huge John Mayer fanboy, and recently starting trying to get into the Dead...Never really got into them, but I figured it'd be different live and decided to spring for a GA ticket and try to get up close. I ended up 10 feet from the rail and had the time of my life. It's just another...

    Did They Wear Sandpaper Suits in the 60s?

    I've been looking through some 60s strats just to get a kick out of it. From Rory Gallagher's strat to John Mayer's, it seems as if 60s strats are ridiculously worn. It makes me wonder, is this a coincidence? Was it the jean jackets? Is it just that people ****ed up their guitars in those days...

    Hello you all, My name is Marcio, and this is my very first post here. I have been playing for a couple years. Last month I had the chance to put my hands on a John Mayer Stratocaster, I found it really nice, I mean, the frets(6105), the neck, not too thin, or thick, just the ideal for me...
