Tomo, you are a treasure! I watch and learn daily. If I had to limit my online browsing to only 1 area online, it would be Tomos Guitar Wisdom. The combination of both the information and your warm and welcoming demeanour make it so pleasurable. Thank you for sharing your guitar knowledge.

[matthewgardiner]

This lesson felt like I was in really the room with you. In the 20 minutes, I learned more about where I need to target my practice than in months of watching “lessons” on YT. I also immediately signed up for Guitar Wisdom after. Thank you for everything!

[finlaybalfour]

That intro is easily one of the most impressive things I've seen on guitar youtube. There are plenty flashier/faster players, but so few who can create a story in a solo jam.

Your comments about Freddie King make so much sense. The clarity and deceptive simplicity of his notes and timing have a clear influence in some of your students phrasing.

[textsmsmaster]

I just stumbled on to this video .. I've watched it 6 times .. I've been playing guitar for many years especially the blues .. the progression thru the major, 7th and into the mystery chord .. lol .. is absolutely the best instructional process and explanation I've seen over decades .. I'll be heading over to guitar wisdom for sure to check it out .. and a Berklee Professor too? .. sounds like the best of both worlds .. thank you

Everytime i play a solo i always remembered what you said to me in your IG, you said you always considered the listener with what they want to hear, this advice is so simple yet hard to master

[joeyfarley]

I love your channel so much. I have been a member of Guitar Wisdom for 2 months now, and in 2 months I have learned way way more then I have in the last 2 years trying to teach myself. I think this is kinda like the Bb blues lesson on Guitar Wisdom that I have been watching for a few weeks. I love how Guitar Wisdom videos can be used for 1 day or for years. The different levels in the videos are a very nice touch. Even after all of the stuff I have learned so far the most important lesson for me has been NO WORRIES! I am still working on it a little every day and having more fun then I ever have with guitar, Thank you so much for making such an awesome website. You are the first teacher I have ever clicked with, I tried 3 others first but for one reason or another I just understand you more then any of the others I have tried. I am so glad I didn't give up on finding a good teacher.

Love the swing feel of your playing . And the fact that all your bends are in tune . Also very tasty choice of notes always !

[colmwatulikededazio]

Thank you Tomo ! I just bought a HB LP copy and its a gold top with p90s ..I'm just starting off guitar and your LP stopped ne in my tracks and your amicable face and lesson kept me to the end ..and im going to subscribe and pray for more blues which is where my heart first fell in love as it were many years ago...so thank you again sunshine ...for the Peter Green reminder to go back to listen to again now as a 'student' rather than just a music enjoyer ...im 65.😉😎

[andredegiant]

Freddie is the most underrated and my favorite of the Three Kings. Thank you for showing him some love ❤️

[bobokoniewski]

You are a phenomenal teacher. You teach so much in a logical and realistic approach. Love the accompanying yourself concept. So true. Well done.

[Arthur_My_Dear]

Your videos never fail to make me smile, Tomo. You emit real joy in your playing and teaching

[bjornnilsson]

I was about to leave the video until I got something about what you're trying to get across. This is brilliant!
It may take a few minutes to get the idea, but watching just one video really gave me the basics of what I need to practice.

[niloybhattacharjee]

You're probably the best and the most wholesome teacher on YouTube. Thankyou Tomo.

[willbohland]

This is the most important video of the year, circa 2021. This is how you put the pieces together. You realize immediately where you're weak. I'll use myself as an example, shell chords. I don't know that many. Bottom line is, playing by yourself is going to make you better.
Edit: Physical strength comes into play as well, especially on the acoustic. It's a ton of barring, and if you're not used to doing that, you will feel it.

[Mikeshawtoday]

OMG. He asks me what key I like. I say "A." He says, okay, you like A. This video is amazing. Like he's really talking to me. What a great teacher.

[nicomartinez]

I love Blues since i was little, I start playing Blues when I was 8 years old.
Always happy to learn more from the real Pro Players and hope I can travel soon to Usa to learn more and more

[gerrycummins]

Your G7 is what I call an A7. But you’re the teacher. Even the best have their moments. I Enjoy your teaching.

[sergioabreu]

Excelent teacher! Explain in a easy way to understand the lesson and the best thing, he encourages student to have freedom to construct your own licks.

[emorris]

Hi Tomo - thanks so much for your awesome lessons. I am a music teacher and recently started learning the guitar. Your lessons are clear, interesting, useful and extremely inspirational.
