- Heavier Things tab book
- For guitarists with previous knowledge of reading music, chords, and tab, this book is a breeze (however playing it is a whole different thing...John Mayer writes some difficult stuff!) For a beginning guitarist, I think it will be very challenging from a playing standpoint, but for those looking for a challenge, and eager to learn, have at it! I highly recommend the book to all, there are many online music/tab websites out there, and 99% of it is wrong. With this book, and others like it, you KNOW you'll be playing it the right way.

- Doesn't help you "play it like it is"
- Don't buy this if you want to play his songs on guitar! It's more suited for piano, there's not even tabulatures, just chords. The "play it like it is" is just bulls*t. It's very simplified and if your want to play it on guitar it will not help you at all...sorry.

- PVG Review - okay book.
- I guess the review for the Play it Like It Is Guitar Tab book follows John Mayer's Piano / Vocal / Guitar Book. This review is for the PVG book.
Basically I bought this book just for "Daughters" and "Wheels." Obviously since John is a guitarist his music sounds better on the guitar. However, Daughters and Wheels sound pretty good on piano, and what's neat is you can actually play the piano version of Wheels right along with his CD recording! Daughters doesn't sound so great but you can still play along well enough.
Overall, aside from the two songs mentioned, the book really wasn't worth it to me. Perhaps someone else can comment on the other songs. - 2007-08-04, 1 of 2 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Accurate?
- This in no way, shape, or form represents what John Mayer is actually playing. Yes, if you play this, it may sound similar to the song, but nowhere near accurate. The Room For Squares (Guitar TAB) does indeed display an accurate representation of what John Mayer plays, and I would suggest that you wait until a similar product is published for Heavier Things.
