I agree! He covers all aspects of playing. Abstract and details.

Oh man, that Little Wing triad melody was killer!!

@scottmorgan9123 Год назад

Tomo is tops in the mindset department. His teaching has allowed me to finally be able to let go, and truly express myself with a guitar. Papa and Trapp have taught me how to see and navigate the fretboard, but Tomo is the man when it comes to getting your head strait. Thanks guys!

@BrettPapa Год назад

You are welcome Scott! Glad we could all help ya out!

Tomo👍 If you were at Berklee in the 90’s…and walked by Tomo’s classroom…every morning Tomo could be heard practicing his funk before his full day of teaching. Inspired, this guy Loves Music… and those Triads!!!

@BrettPapa Год назад

Yep great dude too!

@Justafeller Год назад

Tomo made John wash his cars and paint his fence. This gave him the foundation. He didn't understand at the time and felt Tomo was just making him do all his much needed work around the house, but in time he began to utilize the skills he'd learned from Mr. Fujita.

@Slew514 Год назад

Incredible video! I think 35:00-36:15 is the perfect summary and starting point for any of us that know our basic chords, Maj's, min's, 7th's, etc, and can get through a song on our own or jamming with other people but never had the privilege of long term formal lessons. A lifetime of lessons in a 50 minute video if you got your basics down. And it's free. If this easily accessible instruction was available in the 90's I'd be a lot farther along than I am now. Thank you sir!

@BrettPapa Год назад

I think we all would have been better if that was the case haha! Well it is here now and it is never too late to get better.

Tomo is the king of “it seems I’m playing simple things (and really I do), but if you try to do the same you will fail because you are not me”. I love him. He is a Teacher with a capital “T”, do you know what I mean? There are a tons of things you could learn from him and his lessons. He is one of few teachers that all the times I see an his video make me feel like I’m pushed to grab the wood and practice instead of felt depressed because I’m not good as I would. Impressive.

@GuitarWisdom Год назад

I still can't figure out how he makes his 6 chords sound so cool. Just one nugget from my memories of Tomo's classes in the 90s.. He would have pages and pages of every possible permutation of rhythms you could play in one bar and he'd have 8 guys sight reading down the pages together like a game. Of course guitar players can't read so it was always pretty brutal. You have to suffer sometimes.
