Is that Blake Bortles ? <| sep |> Since you ' re obviously misinformed this isn ' t new . Fascism has a long history of appropriating leftist symbolism and rhetoric to cut into the appeal of communists . It ' s why the Nazi flag is red , why they were called the National Socialist German Workers Party , etc . But if you compare them to the German communists or any communists you ' ll find that the two ideologies are wholly opposed and fundamentally incompatible . <| sep |> Yeah I know all this . I wouldn ' t say I ' m crucifing him but yes concentrating on the positives , like how excited he was by proposing is a good way to go about things . Thanks for your input . <| sep |> John Mayer started off as pretty much a Martin acoustic guy . Then , after breaking into top 40 charts , gravitated towards a slightly more electric sound , where the Strat became his iconic guitar . At the same time , his continued success allowed for him to branch out somewhat , letting the world know he can rip like SRV . But that Martin still hung around in the picture . Still further down the line of John Mayer ' s career , the John Mayer Trio allowed for him to explore more bluesyrb type material , for which he employed a Gibson ES 335 in almost equal duty with his Strats . Finally , as a member of the Dead Co , he partnered up with PRS to make a truly special , massively expensive workhorse of a guitar , the Super Eagle . So , it would be easy to say John Mayer is a Martin guy . But after ~ 15 years of being one of the most successful yet versatile , I ' d say he ' s definitely broken out of his pigeonhole .
