One of the best things about playing guitar is discovering new players that you can learn something from. I've been playing for over 20 years, and the best advice I think I could ever give any young players reading this is to never worry or think about how good you are compared to other players. Have fun with it. Get creative. Don't worry so much about speed. Think about melody, and let speed compliment it. You do not have to be blazing fast to be considered good. Be as good as YOU can be. Play things YOU love. Trust me.

And the camaraderie is incredible, reminds me of the days when Rhett would tend to hangout. One can see a deep friendship, these conversations could not happen otherwise.

But to fulfill it's patrons that brush was absolutely required and would go where needed should they were not in a position to fulfill the request. After all, one of the biggest differences I see between professionals and amateurs is the stakes. Your bank account is separate from your audience and being unable to fulfill their requests doesn't put ones own livelihood at risk.

Anyway, I really love this interview. I just discovered Polyphia for the first time, and Tim is now my favourite guitarist, so it was really cool to listen to him talk about his passion. Even if I don’t understand most of it (not a guitarist or an instrumentalist at all, unfortunately… no opportunity or money…), I still really love to hear it. Keep it up. Love these up close interviews with musicians about their craft where you guys just geek out together. It’s amazing. And man… that Chino track is sick… all of Polyphia’s music is amazing so far, but I was wondering how vocals would sit with it. Couldn’t be happier with a result like that. It was intense.

Whenever these two get together something great happens. You can see Rick's enjoyment when he listen to the songs.

Such a nice and interesting video. So refreshing to finally get an talk where Tim has space to elaborate and talk about his music. Love Tims playing/music (and not so much like the way to loud kick drum on last album.....). He is one of my absolute favourite guitarist/musician, truly a creator of a NEW style and evolving.

Thank you Rick for introducing me to Tim and Polyphia, especially their tune Playing God. What fun to play along. Lots of layers, jazz changes, half time, open string hammer on/pull off stuff, fingerstyle, harmonics. Good times....

I'm continually impressed by Tim, both as a guitar player and as a person. Him and Polyphia have blown up and it really seems like he's kept his feet on the ground, intensely focused on improving his craft. Not only is it rare for music like this to be gaining so much traction, but it's rare for artists at this level to keep their head on their shoulders. I gain more confidence with every interview I see that he's successfully navigating fame's pitfalls. That's inspiring on its own.

This was a cool, and insightful interview. I first heard Polyphia around 2013. I was impressed that guys that were that young were playing that type of music. I'm still impressed, they did some extremely cool and stuff on this last album. Great interview Rick.

Great to see that people care for such in depth interviews, cool content format!

It's great that the type of music done by this gentleman and his band mates has become popular.

Another great interview, Rick. These guys are damn impressive. I had no idea Chino collaborated with Polyphia. That's amazing!

Tim is gonna be producing amazing music for this century. Much to come.

The fact that he said he is wanting to expand his bag of tricks and get better so he knows exactly when to do certain things is just insane to me. You would think that a guy of his level would already feel like they've gotten to that point, but I guess that's what makes him a great player is that he just wants to keep getting better.

the more you know, the more you don't.

Awesome interview Rick! You are what many musicians wish they were! ❤

+40 years listening to rock and heavy stuff, I can't wave this kids flag enough. Unless he is a master fake and you know something i don't, he's based and humble. He never speaks as if he's embellishing a story and he loves talking guitar always.

Tim is so down to earth and humble. Great interview Rick! Now I really want Tim's signature TON10N guitar!

had the pleasure of meeting tim after a show a few years ago, no cap one of the most humblest people i’ve ever met, was a pleasure chatting with him

That was such a great question at around 32:00. I always wondered if he thought through every progression or if it just becomes 2nd nature to him. So cool to see this with him demonstrating that technique from Playing God as well. Love your interviews, Rick!

i dont go outta my way to listen to Polyphia, but when ever they do i listen. I love what hes doing. Keeping the instrument alive and doing things never seen

I'm more of an AAL kind of guy but Polyphia still blows my mind. As musicians, yall are geniuses. I've got so much respect for you Tim!

Love that Tim is humble. His production skills and ideas are off the chart.

Such great content Rick! Love your videos!

One of the best interviews to watch in this New Year Thank you Tim for your humbleness and creativiy, thank you Rick for so much great stuff and both for true love for Music! My preferred track from new Polyphia's album I bet is Chino's singing... Mystical and profound.... Love you guys, I wish you have a great 2023!

Tim you are such a huge thing happening to guitar world.. thank you.

Each Polyphia member is such an incredible talented musician. A dream team. I hope they never fall out and brake up. Success can be a killer.

Yeah but they'll keep making good music even if they do.

they seem to have 0 ego. So I think the only thing that could break them up would be like getting married and having children but given their apparent way of life even that probably wouldn't be too difficult.

It’s so exciting to experience how Tim is evolving the world of production and guitar!

Tim is a bad ass guitar player and songwriter. I’m 47 and love his music and playing style. I’ll never be able to play like him, but I sure like watching him and his band. It’s good to see real music.

This is such a cool interview. I wasn't expecting such a detailed story of the origin of the TOD10N and his involvement. And his awareness and presence of mind around all the business aspects of everything from building a guitar to building a brand.

Thank you both! Thoroughly enjoyed your conversation. You speak shared languages of music and modern sound design. It was great to hear Tim mention Marcin. 💜🙏🇺🇸

@@ericantkowiak9099 I found Marcin before he was this big. Pretty much everyone at the time was sure he would be going places.

I've been watching youre stuff for around as long as I've been listening to polyphia. My favorite music youtuber and my favorite guitarist crossing over is so amazing. Watching you guys for the past half decade or so has been awesome!

My son introduced me to Polyphia last summer and I love their music. I would love to see them live. These men are true musicians, a rarity now. They make me want to be young again. ❤

Love this comment. Same here. My 11 year old showed it to me. I’ve been teaching him and sharing with him music his whole life. For the first time he came to me with something that truly blew my mind. He was so proud to share it. Really amazing musicianship, and phenomenal music.

Tim is such a cool guy and has a lot to say about production for his age, great interview! 🤘

i love how he is becoming more and more comfortable in these interviews. im sure rick is a cool guy anyways but hes just so confident here and its nice to see.
