Tomo Fujita Guitar Wisdom

Great work, Andy! The sound is really clean. Elbow muting is all the rage right now! Let's keep it going!

Awesome Andy - that sounded great!

Thanks for the nice words Tadashi and Clay. Elbow muting ftw!

Great job Andy! Much clearner and your tone is so good! You got my elbow muting! A-9 & D7(b9) very jazzy!

Tomo

Thanks, Tomo. Yeah, those jazzy chords are so much fun to play. I'm glad the tone is good — my pickups were very noisy (maybe a lot of em radiation in my practice area) so I bought noiseless ones (and a soldering iron) and replaced them. The tone of the neck pickup isn't quite as good in my opinion, but close enough.

I'm also glad to hear it was cleaner. I am working on my muting through R37 swing groove, chromatic exercise, and the warmup (triplet) etude that you recently introduced in a Youtube video. I do those 3 every day.

Such a beautiful sound!

I would listen to this while working; it’s like bells, with all the overtones.

Great tone! I think your root position you can play a little clearly. R 5 M3 or R 5 b3... Your first finger only press 6th string and listen carefully R...5...M3 and work on balanace. Good job! Keep going!

Tomo

Thank you for the kind words, Clay!

Yes, Parker! I really like this sound too. Thanks for the comment!

Really nice Tadashi...every note is so clear.

Thanks Tadashi! Excellent playing!
These videos remind me to keep working on these fun, cool sounding triad shapes!
I appreciate you and Tomo's lessons very much!

Kurt

So beautiful.
Just watching and listening.
Nice to see your comment Kurt.

Thanks for the kind comment, Clay!

Thanks, Kurt! I really love the Spread Triads series.

Thanks, Eiji! The world of guitar really is deep, isn't it?

Yes, I agree, Tadashi. It's my life work to pursue guitar playing.
Eiji

Yes, we just have to keep moving forward! Thanks, Sammi!
