　　Bernard Perusse of The Gazette said the album features "catchy melodies, plainspoken lyrics and one man’s attempt to transplant contemporary country from its red-state ghetto into the hearts of everyone."[4] Taste of Country's Billy Dukes told that "'Wheelhouse' delivers a familiar mix of humor, life lessons and scorching guitar solos, but it does it in a way different from any of the other eight albums the...singer has released," which he evoked how Paisley "took his old formula, balled it up, lit it on fire and tossed the ashes in the garbage".[5] In addition, Lewis of the Los Angeles Times found that the music is packaged up "in an arena-ready singalong," that Paisley "tacitly inviting listeners to sample his perspective."[2] At The Boston Globe, Scott McLennan praised the writing on this album as being "sharp".
　　On the topic of music styling, McLennan of The Boston Globe told that "Paisley cooks through honky-tonk, country swing, the blues, rockabilly, and weepy ballads with assured command, topping off each song with at least one memorable line".[6] At Newsday, Glenn Gamboa said that because of Paisley's heavy involvement with production and songwriting that "turns out to be both a blessing and a curse", which "would be a lot stronger if Paisley would have sought a little more input on some of these songs and taken a little more advice".[1] Lastly, Bob Paxman of Country Weekly surmised that "with clever splices of sonic experimentation and songs that run from fanciful to downright serious, Wheelhouse seems to stand as Brad's Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", which it is not "quite that monumental, to be clear", but does give the listener a "declarative statement that Brad is branching out in a more divergent path than ever before."[7]
　　In terms of guitar playing, Gary Graff of The Oakland Press praised Paisley for his instrument playing acumen, when he said "there's nothing at all funny about Paisley’s guitar chops, which are still sharp throughout these 17 tracks."[8] Also, McLennan commented that the guitar work is "impeccable."[6] Paxman of Country Weekly vowed that "the musicianship on Wheelhouse is incredible and Brad just keeps on getting more flavorful as a guitarist".[7] At Premier Guitar Jason Shadrick evoked how Paisley "continues to take chances and push modern country away from the auto-tuned sing-alongs with a simple twist of his B-bender," which he even "throws in just enough EL84-powered twang and Stones-inspired double stops to keep the guitar nerd’s eyes from glazing over".[9] In addition, Chuck Eddy of Rolling Stone noted that "as always, plenty of tasty guitar" from Paisley is featured on the album.
　　With respect to the album duration, Roughstock's Matt Bjorke felt the work was rather long in terms of duration it "just [seemed] too ambitious for an artist not exactly known for being all that ambitious" musically, yet he hoped "that Brad maintains some of the juju found on this record -- the explorations of other genres w/o abandoning Country Music's bedrock instruments -- and reigns himself in a little bit on his next album."[11] In agreement, Taste of Country's Dukes said that "seventeen tracks are too many, even if a few are little more than interludes", yet Paisley "earns an extra half star for some daring production," which "a lack of momentum holds back a project that’s full of good ideas spaced apart.

Death of a Mainstream Country Artist
