I would say he is more copying John Mayer than making it all his own. still a great performance! and impressive to only us a powered JBL speaker and preamp/looper?

No, not cheating! He uses it very effectively!

Here's the great John Scofield using one this year, so that gives it a seal of approval! Go to the 18 minute mark for the looper, although there's some great playing up to that point!

I would have stood and watched that, as I bet most of us would. It’s sad sometimes to see talented street performers ignored. However I would venture that many buskers do it to simply practice of playing in public, in less that ideal conditions rather than in the shelter of their bedroom.
