    You don't simply just give lessons. You don't simply just say, "Here's something... Now go and practice that." You go into and give all the small details and info that goes on HOW you should practice and WHAT you need to practice to improve as a guitar player. You are a rare gem, sir.

    Tomo-san, I’m entranced by every aspect of your video. When you said at 10:25 that you had probably already lost 200 people due to the slow pace, I laughed but disagreed. Personally you had me hooked. You really honor the guitar and your students by making these videos. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I can’t wait to wake up tomorrow and begin applying this information.

    Thank you so much for the gracious reply. It is definitely not an easy exercise, as you say. There are a lot of details to take note of and apply, and if I do so I’m certain that I’ll improve. Btw, your instructions on minding posture and your apparent enjoyment of the sounds have made it enjoyable rather than a chore. Beauty in simplicity! Huh, I never thought about that regarding the guitar. I’m not from a musical background. Thank you again.

    when I was first taking guitar lessons back in the 90's my teacher was great he played in a country band at the flying w ranch and taught guitar on the side. he taught me to read music and he showed me that chromatic scale practice too not slow but just being able to hit every note correctly and then he showed me speed and alternate picking to make it sound amazing. you just reminded me of that so I subscribed and will follow you. i like how you teach super chill and informative and i like the idea of slowing down and hearing what you are doing.

    I could listen to you play those jazzy runs all day! To me your guitar sounds the best with no effects at all, just the pure clean tone when you play. Are you improvising those runs on the fly? I would love to learn how to play like that with such feel and dynamics! To me when you play it’s like taking a journey down an unpredictable path where the journey is the most rewarding than reaching your destination! Thank you!

    Hello, I just wanted to say thank you for your lessons. I’m just beginning after trying to learn on a right handed guitar (I’m a lefty). I have an acoustic and electric now and I’m starting to practice more often. Even tracking it in my planner, so if I miss a few days at least I know where I left off instead of feeling discouraged. Your lessons have been so helpful in my understanding and appreciation of music theory and practice. Especially your more philosophical tips and clear enjoyment of playing. It should be fun, it can be magical. Playing with the pedals reminds me of having fun and exploring keyboard settings when practicing exercises when I was younger. Would you suggest using a small step for the leg the guitar rests on while practicing to make keeping good posture take less focus? Thanks again

    'why so slow?" no. that was quickly. lol The fastest guitar player I have ever known played at like a Matrix level- frozen time- enabling him to analyze every single aspect of his technique, tone, and awareness. Changed my perspective on even slow metronome practice. As you say Tomo- '"no tempo" ;) yet ironically everything is subject to time.

    Mr. Fujita, thank you so much for all the content you post. I just subscribed! I wanted to ask... I primarily pick single-notes with upstrokes. I always have. It took me a long time to realize no one else really was. Downstrokes only occur for (most) chords, as well as when I'm playing multiple single-notes in quick succession. So, my question is, do you think it's worth it to adjust my technique after playing for multiple years? (I'm very mediocre, btw, but I try)

    Tomo, how can I practice trying to play what I can sing/hear in my head in a structured way. With my voice I have total freedom and I can sing whatever comes to mind, but I don't have that same freedom on guitar. Do I just sit in first position and try to play phrases while singing them over and over until it clicks?

    You need to prepare with triads so that you can hear basic intervals much clearly. Prepare something, then apply that into music.. then you can practice , play things well. Not easy to process this.

    Sometimes for this it helps to ascend the first four frets on a string and then descend, but then go to the next string. Doing this up and down a half step at a time can help.🎸
