seriously though, its all subjective and tone, like most things, should be for the song. I just listened to EMI by the pistols and the guitar tone was fantastic.
Open ended question, the tone on John Mayers stuff fits perfectly. It would be shit on anything by AC/DC
For sure, just striking up a conversation, my tastes change so often, can't believe I'm such a John Mayer fan now

John Mayer's in where the light is.
Which song in particular is worth a listen?
Not the biggest JM fan, so don't want to commit to a whole album....
Nothing to see here.

Having seen Bad News live at donington, I'm not sure I agree. It would have been pretty shit even on a john mayer song.

Yeah, which is why I'm being flippant
I have a couple of his dvd's including that one, I'm not a hater.
oh and Jeff Beck has tone!!!! whether its to everyone's taste is irrelevant.

You should have done a 'Show a better guitar face than John Mayer' thread...
There are a few, including gazza moore and bb, but hey not that many.

Going out on a limb....
Intro to Eminem's lose yourself
What about a thread for guitar tones from non guitar-centric artists?

Talking about non guitar players, the Edge's tone on Pride is sooo good!
