This cat's guitar instruction, although somewhat scattered, actually makes sense to me. I've been playing guitar for over 40 years. I am entirely self taught. This cat speaks a musical language I understand.

Another Fine Lesson Tomo! Looks like a hybrid picking lesson is in order. New players have a hard time with double stops because of the hybrid picking. Just a suggustion. I know I had a had time with it in the begining ( 100 years ago). We are so lucky you do this. I have played for a very long time but I always always learn from you. It helps me stay interested and to pratice.
I just turned 15 today, Its now the 15th of april here and I still keep on listening and learning from your content. Keep on doing what you love and inspire more people like me to learn guitar theory, guitar lessons and many more. Much love!
As an old guy who started late with guitar, I just can say: never put it down and never give up!😊🤗 A guitar is more than an instrument! It is: diversion, happiness, joy, fun, spiritual comfort. It is life quality! Keep playing.🤘🏻😀
Fantastic lesson Tomo. So much soul on double stops. As a guitar player, I can say they are almost like a cheat code beacuse they are much easier to see (at least to me) and the ability to slide and bend notes really makes them so versatile and easy. On the keys, they are harder to see and transpose (obviously) and are harder to apply as tastefully. Using a pitch bender wheel can open it up a bit, but since you can't bend two notes a different amount with the same wheel it's not the same.
That has to be the most beautiful double stop lick I've ever heard. Put that with fender roads, an organ, bass, and heavy reverbed drums, and I guarantee everyone drowns in the feels.
Really take a lot from each of your lessons! Regards from a classical Orchestra Violinist who fell in love with the Jazz and Rhythm Guitar in the old days. Thanks a lot!
Another fantastic video! As a self taght guitarist I'm very thankful for your lessons. Double stops was something very missing in my playing and I didn't even know about that. From the bottom of my hearth thank You very much for your work!
Thank you a lot for sharing your knowledge. A lot of things is starting to assemble like puzzle by watching you and practicing a lot, it feels really nice. Being gratefull. Best regards !
Thanks for your patient instruction. This one helps break the cage. Those three notes I play with my ring finger on a root 5 bar chord…so-do-mi, if I play them with my index finger now I can grab new colors with my ring finger… 🚨🚨🚨 thanks again!
Yes, many players have done and employed double stops in this manner, but I believe Mateus Asato is the current king of the technique. I really like that man, he's incredibly melodic and diverse. Tomo sir, do you have any advice for those who want to play like Asato, Mayer, and others?
Yes! Mateus told me how he learned his triads! That's why he can play freely! Very talented guitar player! A great example of someone has full of foundation! Not just knowledges. Information is so easy! But use them musically... is not easy! Triads & Major scales without any shapes! Intervals!
Absolutely loved this lesson Tomo and learned a lot again....lost me at the solo around 17 minutes but hilariously funny again as usual!!!! Great lesson and well presented. Thank you again. Dean. 😊
Tomo, could you do more of these type of lessons where you play the triad melody and use that to explain the theory. It’s pure gold and will help so many
I always credited to Chuck Berry for being an innovator in piano/guitar cross-over ‘stops’ too. He may not have been as melodic but a lot of his famous licks were derived from piano though more honky-tonk than gospel in my ear. This is a very informative vid my friend, thank you!👍
You're very welcome! First triads! C E G on 123 set stings. X X X 5 5 3 = X X X R M3 5 ... learn them slowly without memorizing! That's root position. Then E G C on 123 set strings X X X 9 8 8 = X X X M3 5 R .. That's 1st inversion! G C E on 123 set strings X X X 12 13 12 That's 2nd inversion. That's all you need to know first! Take your time!
Got..it! Technically I can do level 1 of this lesson, but I understand the theory also of level 2 & 3. Such a good lesson, makes me feel like I am improving!!
@@TomoFujitaMusic I know it's a I - V - vi - IV and its super common, but it's just eerily similar. Great work on this video. Thanks much and salute to you Professor
Geez Sensei Tomo, every singular note that you hit hard on that strat feels like I’m eating a delicious hearty juicy hamburger 🍔 with all the fixings 🤣, and that’s only on stereo through UA-cam. I can only imagine how amazing it sounds in person…. Also, what a great lesson…. You are such a great and inspiring instructor as always.
I had to google what a double stop is and am already playing them! 😊 Just started recording and found out full chords don’t always sit in the mix as well as double and triple stops
Wow, you mentioned double stops sounding like 2 guitars so I just practiced adding them where I would normally accent a note. It really feels like a 2nd guitar is hitting with me on those notes, adding extra suspense or release to the phrase. I’m a beginner, but try to spend 15-20 minutes practicing the basic level of your videos. Even my wife says I’m sounding better 😁
Love your vids. Bit of humour and people remember it much more than somebody just talking at you dead pan. Would like to know what amp your playing through.
Guten Tag Herr Tomo Fujita! Ich habe eine Bitte: I have a request: can you teach us the Reggae? The slurs, the straight, the laid back, the smooth and the stomp? I bet Meister Tomo kann das auch! (I bet master Tomo can do this too ) 😊
Hi Tomo and thank you for this lesson. So when soloing how do you know when to come out of the double stops and go back to single note improv. Is it a feel thing or sound??? Sometimes my solos sounds like not a smooth transition. I hope that makes sense. I hope you can do a little more on this subject…. Thank you!
You're welcome! Both. Feel from music & good knowledges from theory. Both mix together = freedom! You are thinking about scales! Plus, you need to separate between PRACTICING & PERFORMING.
Mr. Tomo, you play beautifuly and I hope I will sometime, in the future, acomplish that kind of mastery but right now I just feel that I'm too stupid for that.Could you tell me if I should even bother trying this stuff being a player for only 6 months now? I was hoping that I could try something from first level but I don't even know what that would be. Could you help me? How should I approach this lesson? Best regards and love!
My first year.... was only chromatic scales so just don't hurry! This ... you need to understand about Major Scale & Triads (Intervals ... not shapes!) You can join my Guitar Wisdom for more detail lessons. You will save your time avoiding learn things from internet.
@@TomoFujitaMusic Thank you so much for your kind answer! I already play lots of chromatics from your video (1212 3212 3432 1234) :) It helps a lot with the technique. I learned all notes on the fretboard and A minor pentatonic but I will go for Major scale now :) I also love triads and I know them on first three strings (also from your video). Thank you again and I want you to know that my wife loves watching you with me even though she doesn't play :) You are awesome!
@@hokahey8051 Good job! Do that for two weeks to 90 days! Major Scale, Pentatonic... learn on ONE STRING so you can hear and understand the intervals / Colors / Music Theory / Ear Training. Thank you!
This is WRONG ! Those are not double stops. In street terms they're called moving 3rds, 4ths, 6ths(3rds) which includes power 5ths and octaves. In classical terms it is called Parallel motion. I studied classical counter-point for a year (A-). John Tropea - Muff Lenny White - Universal Love and Gary Hoey - Hocus Pocus are examples of double stops.
Hello i am from the cayman islands you are great teacher i am really learning a lot from your guitar lessons.

Yes! Keep pushing! Make something happen!

Accident in music .You dont get hurt ........you just get disappointed.Lol. Thank you for lesson Tomo.God bless
Best keys for open string lines and examples over the neck. I love open string and fingered lines that compliment each.

I'm sure @Tomo will be able to play the intro to the Mario brothers videogame with only double stops.

Such a great lesson. Double stops seem hard when u listen Hendrix, but this approach makes them really easy to play😊

I own one. Fantastic amp!
Hi teacher Tomo what pedal should I get in order to minimize unwanted percussive sound when playing rhythm?
You don't need any pedal! You need a good left hand muting technique & a good right hand strumming technique = RHYTHM GUITAR!
Thank you for the lesson, so tasty to be able to play this way!! And Mr Bean is the best!!! 😅
