    Hey Tom, I lost my job last week and I have a lot of free time on my hands to watch your videos and practice. I love your videos because they're like a good plate of food. Every time I watch one there's a little gear talk, a little theory talk, an album recommendation, a work or road story and some homework but really it's all musicianship. You're saving my life right now buddy and probably not just me. Thanks a million!

    • @misterknightowlandco
      @misterknightowlandco 4 года назад +3

      You win the internet today. The best part is that if you went out and bought the gear Tom uses it would sound closer to how it sounds in his videos than some mic'd up demo. I hate gear demos with mic'd up gear. I still watch like we all do but i know its going to sound nothing like it once I get it.

      I dusted off my old 4 track tape recorder, and started using it again. Not just for nostalgia, tape is brutally honest when it comes to assessing one's playing, I'd forgotten just how much of a difference (at least to my ancient ears) in terms of highlighting my more, er, 'unique' moments.

    Hey Tom, firstly many thanks for doing this, enjoying every lesson, so much knowledge. The one thing that truly resonates was your comment "be a musician, not a guitarist", never a truer word spoken. Watching from the UK so also loving the British affair you seem to have going on.

I like it when you give advice/ recomandations / ideas about the different possibilities on a certain chord. I've been playing for over 25 years with no real coaching from a teacher or more advanced player. It's mind blowing when someone shows you someting that was there all along but you just never knew! By the way we have some kickass beers here in Montréal, i would love to have you try some! Thanks for what you do , i feel privileged to have someone like you share his knowledge it's amazing.

      I record straight to my iPhone as well. It has limitations certainly. But... in ways I build discipline not being able to punch-in and edit, and the less time I mess with editing, the more time I have for playing and actually working on the music. I k ow some guys that have great, high production values... and they spend LOT of time on that editing, if not much more time than actually playing the music.

    You bro I have been playing bass since I’m 10 and converted to guitar when I was 12 and was playing out in bars every weekend by the time I was 16 rocking like Zeppelin, Allman Brors, Hendrix et etc. Learned a lot over the years studying those guys, blues records etc etc. I’m 42 now and I feel I have learned more from you in the last 2 months than in 32 years of playing. No joke my friend. You have re-inspired me with music in everyway
