Who do you think is the better guitar player?

I'm a fan of both, but I'd say Dave Matthews is better. His acoustic work is amazing. I love Mayer's Blues music, but Matthews is just beautiful to listen to.

Different guitar players entirely.....they can't be compared in my opinion.

I compare them because they don't play standard chords. They play very distinctive, compared to the Joe Perry's and John Frusciante's.....

Johnny Vinyl · 06-06-2009, 07:17 PM

Want different chords....check out the work by Bruce Cockburn.

Regarding your original post, I'm always hesitant to compare acoustic guitarists to electric guitarists, because the instruments are so very different. I quite frankly enjoy the playing of both and I can't pick between one or the other.

but dave matthews doesn't only play acoustic guitar. he also plays electric guitar and plays it better than john mayer.

OrlandoEastwood · 06-07-2009, 08:08 PM

Dave. Hands down.

toef · 06-07-2009, 09:02 PM

John Mayer. Hands down. I don't really like either though.

I'd prefer to listen to Dave Matthews...whether he is better than John Mayer is purely subjective

True dat. It's like: Leona Boyd or Eddie Van Halen? Impossible to compare.

I am also like John and cannot say one style is better than the other; I love both styles mentioned here (as well as other styles).

John Mayer is a better guitar player, so much more technical and can play a variety of different styles,

Dave Mathews is a better song writer though.

silversnake · 06-11-2009, 04:16 AM

Holy @#$#... What a concert. Dave Matthews and the gang played for 3 hours

I can't feel my feet, legs, or hear my voice. What a show. I took a lot of videos / pictures

Definitely like John Mayer more here. Watch his Blu-ray called Where the Light is. It's fantastic!
