    So cool to see TE in Guitar Village! Bought my first acoustic guitar from you guys and played the open mic night over the road every month ❤️

    3:52 - "I don't have a guitar tech; i am the guitar tech and i don't want people touching my guitar..." I don't know why but this statement probably gave me the most satisfying feeling ever.

    He's talking about an upcoming tour with Jerry Douglas: I saw that tour at The Apex in Bury Saint Edmunds. Tommy was on fire! His new lighting man complemented the whole performance; unbeatable. Unfortunately, much as I like Jerry Douglas when he's in a band, backing people like Alison Kraus, I just didn't understand what he was trying to say. I now have a ticket for the same venue next January (2024) where Tommy will have Molly Tuttle; don't know if she'll be solo or backed, but I'm certainly looking forward to it...

    Just had the pleasure of seeing Tommy in concert for the very first time - in Los Angeles. I’m still coming off a cloud. Not only was his playing superb, but what drew me in the most was his exuberance and joy on stage. He was like a kid on Christmas Day. Having so much fun and exhibiting so much spirit! Thank you TE for that experience!

    Lucky enough to catch Tommy in Cardiff on the 5th March. Probably the 5th or 6th time I’ve heard him live - lucky me! I figured he would have slowed down a bit by now but actually he was the best I have ever seen him. Some of his collaborations with Jerry were just brilliant. He is such a legend on stage and in person. If you have never seen him live you really should take the opportunity! Awesome.

    Tommy an exception but long gone the days of players like Buchanan using NO effects (just the amp reverb sometimes) relying instead on just one guitar, fingers, technique, no electronic tuner, string changing done on the stage floor mid gig.
    Audience never batted an eyelid.

    Concert size guitar? I think strings are as low they can be without buzz?
    Like his keep it simple. Why hazzle?
    He has nice stories but I want to know what it takes to get his level of playing?
    I am maybe half way from his technique. Never to his level.
    I like more playing and singing not virtuoso one man band thing.
    Here in Finland is Tomi Paldanius been in his concert. He plays Maton's guitar. And is this level.

    Asking TE who his biggest influences were is a wrong notion. It’s everyone. He’s a sponge.
