Tomo Fujita Guitar Wisdom

Hi Tomo,
pls do another lesson on that triplets.
I understand your approach concerning practicing long times to get into good rolling grooves.
But when it comes to the "concrete" examples and the technique you play the examples way too quick and without "framing" them with bar-time it is still not possible for me to get them clear.
It seems as there are triplets ending with an upstroke and those ending with a downstroke. And you have the "extra" of like "raking" what is another length. That's all fine.
But I don't get it into a groove without having a (spoken) bar [one two three four].
I'm in work for those triplets since ages and I am here to learn them so plz be so kind and make a countable lesson. Thanx a lot - from Germany, Zita

Here is Tomo's reply:

"Thanks so much for subscribing to my Guitar Wisdom. I will create more lessons on my funky fast triplet technique, with different chords, etc. The next fast-triplet lesson will be much slower, with counting."

I was also wondering - I have the Rhythm down concerning the triplet strum but was wondering when it comes time to start practicing the rake across the strings does the rake cover does multiple parts of the triplet from the one strum direction? perhaps simliar to Mark knopfler at the start of sultans of swing where the rake on the Dm chord gives it that illusion or is played just like the regular strumming directions with just a slight drag. Sorry I hope this makes sense.
