Tomo Fujita Guitar Wisdom

Hi Johann. Thank you so much! I was completely surprised. Hoping for a great 2025 for yourself, and I also like the thought of another GW Challenge. I think most folks in the forum feel the same about another Challenge and we're all wondering...what will it be???

Be well.

Hello Yen Tien! I agree with you that the Journey in 2025 is off to a great start! I also really like your sentiment of "We don't worry here!"

True Guitar Wisdom.

Thank you Rulyna! Happy 2025, I will post something soon!

Kurt, thank you! In the most humble way that I can express, I do love the guitar! That neck was made for my hand. I am looking forward to many more hours of playing in 2025!

Nice axe and performance Linda, from the heart ❤️

Nice performance and beautiful arrangement Linda. I was 6 when I watched "The Wizard of Oz" and listened to Judy singing this song for the first time. A movie from 1939! A forever classic.

Wow! What a performance! You made the Ibanez AZES31 sounds so warm and beautiful!

I love your performance Linda! Awesome job on solo guitar style!

Thanks so much for sharing! Played this classic so well!
Once again congratulations and appreciate your great contribution on GW forum!
Your daily feedback comments on the November Challenge was so special!

Tomo

Thank you, Ken! I appreciate you giving it a listen. How is the hand healing up?

It IS indeed a forever classic! It sticks in your head, and I think "I must play this song". It is such a metaphor for a life journey.

Kurt, I thought of you and Corker as I posted this. Remember, one day at a time (sometimes just one hour at a time).

Markos, thank you so much. This song is called "Somewhere over the Rainbow".

I love the soundtrack to that Wicked prequel it comes from.
Kurt

Kurt, I think the entire soundtrack / movie / song has very deep meaning.

Thank you, George. I receive so much more from Guitar Wisdom Team and Forum friends than I can ever repay.

Thank you so much, Jeffrey. Yes, what a wonderful world indeed. In spite of all the hardships and struggles there is so much beauty and hope to be found. Thanks for listening.

Mark, thank you! And yes, I was trying to channel Tomo and the November Challenge as I played this. Sometimes it's clean, and sometimes, well, it needs some more work. But that is part of the journey!

Mark, Linda's performance is so good! She should teach this song to us!

Lovely performance!

Thank you.

Tomo

Yes! Good idea Tomo. I'd love to know that arrangement. It is so beautiful
Kurt

Thank you Rulyna! I think that you have the same guitar. It's great to play, eh?

李jiayang, I appreciate your kind thoughts. I am very inspired by your guitar journey!

Thank you, Sergio! I am still figuring out all the switches and pickups on this guitar!

Tomo, thank you so much for your kind words. And thank you for doing such an awesome set-up on this guitar. It is a joy to play!

My pleasure! So happy that you are enjoying! I am working with Ibanez "New Project" I can't say anything yet. You have a special guitar! Glad you like that guitar!

Thank you.

Tomo
