Rewatched this live stream today and will check out once more tomorrow. This lesson has come back around and clearly important one for us.

A couple take aways for me was :
- this was first lesson Tomo went through with John Mayer to work on his technique.
-Not one to skip George reiterated here.
-Dedicated and learning how to practice sea to sea the right way will lead to smoother playing. -Learning how to mute both hands and playing along to metronome.
-in beginning On the and of beat 4 mute with palm right hand and go to next measure. On whole notes can stop it a little short that is ok.
Writing these notes down in the book -
-Also muting with left hand touching strings so they are not ringing. B string for example. Writing these down too.

There’s a lot to absorb in here so going to have to rewatch.

Thank you Jeff for reviewing that Live Stream. Always better to watch a few times so that you will gain something.

Little thing (Sea to sea) is very important step to next level. Subtle muting technique is super important to make smooth playing. Good job for listing all these important points.

Tomo

I will be at the next one.
