Hm.. have you listened to any of his live stuff?? Saying that John Mayer doesn't have soul is saying that Stevie Ray Vaughan doesn't have soul... Not saying John Mayer is AS good of a blues player as Stevie... just saying that his style reflects a lot of Stevie. I think you may be saying this because he's trying to take a more pop approach to blues... but listen to "Any Given Thursday" and tell me that he has no soul when he covers "Lenny" the solo to "Covered in Rain" is also really good. If anything I would say he doesn't get enough recognition as a good guitar player. I don't think Zakk Wylde is overrated either... I especially loved his work on Book of Shadows and Pride and Glory. I agree with most others though... Its all opinion
