Thank you very much Tomo. 👌 You've got a new student for your "Tomo Fujita Guitar Wisdom". I really appreciate that the cost is so affordable. So much experience and work is a bargain.! If you ever come to Spain (Madrid or Barcelona) please let me know. I will be happy to host you.
I love how every tutorial, you get so lost in playing melodies and forget that you are doing a tutorial. It just shows that practicing/training doesn't have to be stressful. Enjoy while you are practicing and you will learn more. You are the best teacher Tomo! Thank you for these videos.
As a martial artist for 55 years. One must learn katas slowly step by step by step. Same as playing guitar. Finger embusan . Step by finger step. It's a beautiful thing.
My kids are all aspiring guitar players. They live with their mom six days a week. Sundays we have visits that inevitably turn into guitar lessons. I have shoulder length dark hair and wear Lennon glasses. My son said, “Dad, it’s like having an Asian version of you teaching me how to play when you’re not there!” They’re all subscribed to Guitar Wisdom. Thanks, Tomo.
LOL. Here I was searching for guitar videos expecting another long intro, noodling about, and within the first thirty seconds I have to rewind because this guy is laying down the knowledge already and I'm not even ready. +100 for immediately getting to the meat of the topic. Insta-sub.

I'm very new to Acoustic Guitar, today is practice day #5. I'm trying to follow your step#2, but I don't follow how to produce your notes with just the video and the above notation. Am I trying to go too far too fast? I really enjoy your videos. I was searching for guitar instruction videos in Japanese, since I'm also studying the Japanese language and wanted to work on immersion at the same time. Thank you so much for everything you do for us!! -Tim
Thank you for what you do here on RUclips. Most of us wouldn’t be able to get a personal lesson from you or be able to attend Berkeley etc but, thanks to your love of guitar you’ve made it something we can attain by putting content here on RUclips! Thanks!

I always thought the sound of fingers sliding on the string sounded 'cool', but now every time I hear it in my playing I hear Tomo go 'bad example'. Thank you, sir.
Glad you like them! You're very welcome! Thank you so much! I Wish All My Students Knew THESE Before They Came To Berklee ruclips.net/video/xlRy7WwZg7c/видео.html
After years of noodling with my guitar, you have really encouraged me to actually try and learn a few things. Your patience and philosophy, as outlined on your t-shirt really resonates with someone like me who has always struggled to (patiently) learn the guitar. Thank you Tomo for keeping me entertained and motivated and bringing joy back into my guitar playing. Love your channel and love your work :)
Thank you so much for these lessons Mr.Fujita! 🙏 I've been playing for 14 years, but there are little things that I learn from you every day. I hope everyone watching these lessons understands how invaluable they are. ❤️

Excellent lesson Mr. Fujita as always, great for newbies like me getting back into the guitar and having trouble thinking what to practice to really develop more skill into our playing. Thank you so much for this work you do to the world and Guitar Wisdom as well, a great source of knowledge.
Most helpful. Very well done. This lesson helps me with my precision and technical playing. And this was very simple to understand and remember. Thank you for putting the fingering for the exercise in the description.
Thank you Mr. Tomo, as a someone who start with bass as first instruments, picking with plectrum really my weakest techniques. Your chromatic exercise works well, I'm having fun with my acoustic guitar, thank you again❤️😁
This was a most helpful video, Master Tomo. In addition to the technique and practice instruction, you also conveyed a glimpse into the relationship depth that one has the capacity to develop with the guitar. Excited to continue to learn from you 🙏🏼

You know what I like about this exercise the most, Tomo San? I like it because it warms my fingers up to practice on my piano. I practice on the keyboard right after this warmup and then I come back to do the guitar practice. 3 months on guitar now and I am starting to know where the notes are on the fretboard. The finger exercise has helped me move faster on the fretboard.
Thank you so much Tomo. I just picked up my first Fender Stratocaster and just wanted to learn exercises and practice a lot. I will definitely do this, thanks again for this tutorial.
When my father was born he went to USA and he made it and am grateful for knowing him❤️ now I realize having guitar for 2,3 years is absolutely nothing. So i started to learn through you. You are really cool person I've ever seen. Love from Nepal❤️
New subscriber and fan. That last strumming jam was special. Regardless how many chords we know, all it takes is creativity to make music. Fantastic tutorial.
Thanks Tomo. Really enjoyed the video. Looking forward to having a go bit later. Only discovered you recently but your great and just like paul davids does every time i watch you guys now you both really make me smile 😊❤

As always thank you for the lesson ,and if you would thank your family for the time they give up with you so you can teach us. It is much appreciated.☮️
Tried this exercise a few years back when I bought your Berklee DVD/Booklet. Always found it very challenging. I believe because of the chromatic nature. Going to start using it again.

Great! Maybe first to play Chromatic scale ex. in descending order (from comfort zone)?
In the descending Chromatic Scale I think there's a "0" at the end that doesn't belong there.
