      Beautiful Taylor you have, please moisturize the fingerboard, it will speed up the neck just a little.

    What Thom has in spades over and above my own musical ability or talent is a great ear and eye for details along with great energy!! Absolutely love Thom's astute eye/ear/nose/sense for all of this and the ease (seemingly!) to bring this all together into such pertinent great lessons for all of us Patreon fans out here!! Jim C.

    Holy Crappolini! I am AMAZED at how much tapping my foot loud enough to hear has in just seconds, changed my playing and made it even more enjoyable to me. Vastly easier than trying to hear a drum beat since it is internal and almost impossible to ignore. If I can keep at that and progress in an exponential manner, I should be able to attempt some of what you play in a matter of a few
    (6-10) decades. You never cease to amaze and I want to thank you for sharing Tommy's secret weapon. That man is beyond amazing. Stay Well.

    @jimajello1028 4 роки тому

    Yes, the foot rythem is very important. Also, when I was researching how to extend improving guitar finger style I would anchor my fingers except my thumb for bass. Slowly I would integrate my other fingers to pick the melody & single notes. This was a challenge. Like thinking with part of the brain never used. After combining all the fingers a new door opened up which afforded me a whole new style. The foot tapping was essential in this process. Sometimes a flat pick or thumb pick was necessary to capture certain sounds. However, calluses formed on my picking fingers could sometimes make the strings ring out. It appears to be a style that requires constant engagement. Thank you. I continue to learn so much from you.

Also, let's not forget that his brother Phil was an amazing guitar player as well. They often performed together.
