I've been going through a lot of your videos the past several months and it has done wonders for my playing ability. In my 20 years of playing guitar, I've done a lot of learning to run before walking, and it's led me to this awkward spot I'm in now where I've developed a lot of bad habits I'm having to unlearn and rework. Now that I'm starting to get serious about my playing, your videos have done a lot to put me on the right track. Thank you so much for sharing all your invaluable knowledge.

Thank you so much for sharing! Learning guitar is like... having more bad habits naturally unless you are aware those "bad habits" Those bad habits can grow naturally so well just like "Weeds" You are doing a great job "Noticing" and "Changing" I am so happy! You're very welcome!

"The problem is you're chasing shapes " ! This right away is so true and such a simple and obvious truth too. Probably more than I'm aware of! That slightly frustrating feeling of "this just doesn't seem musical or freely improvised, it seems boring and predictable " there's no magic, but there must be ways and approaches that can change one's "ear" and playing.

@TomoFujitaMusic 3 ай бұрын

Easy way is always has some catch that... not so good overall! Quick satisfaction! Practicing part, techniques ... not musical. But once you got material down then you can apply into music! Smart people tends to think... If I know these, I can improvise like that? Ear Training is so important!

Tomo is 100% right about using your ears, and not bothering with tabs. I have been playing for 10 years mostly “self taught” and I quit looking up tabs, chord sheets and videos of how to play songs. No matter what genre of music you want to play focus on the notes, and build the muscle memory. None of Tomos most successful students sound like him at all.

As a lead player my biggest challenge has been to switch from "scale exercises" mode to "melodic phrasing" mode. When I spend all my time only running through scale shapes finding my way around the fretboard I loose the the skill of choosing notes selectively and purposefully to flow with the underlying composition. Lately I've been spending more time focusing on finding the harmony notes in the scale to create melodic passages instead.

Hello Tomo , thanks our Dear to make of this videos that I just discover, that is really nice and helpful for everyone. Here, on this videos, you did something that just blown my mind , the first 2 minutes, that sort of easy approach which resume in one or two licks onr after the other the way we can have to approach a lead guitar, make colors, or linking ideas together. That s just perfect and gave me a total new direction to write, organise, archive idea/technique on a simple loop rhythmic. My Dear, if you can go in one other video the same way to show how, by theorie, we can approach and resume all this differents laws/ modes in a simple licks, one after one, that would be amazing! God.bless you and thanks for all this work and sharing mate !!

Oh, and the song idea is fantastic. I spend a lot of time trying to figure out guitar-friendly inversions for chords that are played on piano for popular songs. So many pretty ballads are done on piano and it would be nice to play them good enough on guitar. Plus on jazzier standards, I can never tell what the piano chords are unless it's some kind of blues.

I can understand you because I learned theory from learning keyboard. I learned guitar for years and never learned much music theory, learning scales was too bothering, I just knew the chords. Now that I know scales more it's easier for me to build out chords myself, as well as improvise. Like you said about the counting system, it's all intervals

Good job! Think about piano, and learn scales on one string! No shapes! Intervals = colors! Thank you!

Thanks for that. You showed me that I'm on the right track. First, I'll play a chord progression, and work out a good rhythm, then I'll start thinking a simple lead melody in my head, then I'll just play each chord once and some simple licks that lead to the next chord. Before i know it, I'm playing an awesome, catchy lead with no chords or track behind me (except in my head). I mostly think in terms of triads and arpeggios, that's where I get my ideas. Next, i need to use my loop pedal to start laying out a backing track, then play to that. Good wisdom! I've already learned a fair amount of theory. i know my chords (Maj, min, dominant 7th, 6 & 9 chords, etc). And triads, of course--but i'm still learning the inversions (i know WHAT they are, i just haven't yet learned WHERE they all are, that comes from practice, for me. I haven't yet memorized all the scales (modes) but i know the basic "essence" of what they are, or where they come from. To me, it's not that important to memorize shapes for scales. I learn them as i go. I just need to keep practicing! Thanks for the tips!

After 16 years of guitar, I find myself wishing that I could forget the pentatonic pattern. It’s such a crutch that allows me to autopilot, and I find that my solos and improvisations lack any real musicality when I over rely on the shapes. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and insight! I’m going to check out your wisdom course!

I need to learn triads! I didn't know what it was called, specifically. I never started learning scale. But, once I began 're-learning,' it was always chords, chords, chords. You're right, a lot of times - with good guitar - there's too much fluidity to pin it to a single descriptive term (for lack of better wording/terminology). I haven't picked up my guitar in probably a year or two. Three or four if you discount the few times I actually did play for 20 mins or so. Although I don't fully understand all of what you're explaining, due to my own lack of knowledge, I love hearing you play and teach. Good to know you're still going strong :) Hopefully I'll catch my groove again with time.
