Thanks so much for supporting TomoFujitaMusic!!
man, like I've said before, you're one of there nicest guys I've ever encountered, may I say something I think's important, I've taught English for 20 years to people from different countries, you mean to say 'finally want to know why your guitar tone sucks? ', otherwise you're telling people their guitar tone sucks!, and you're too damned nice to be telling people that, right?, peace, love and understanding Sensei!
So great to hear that! You're welcome! Thanks so much!
You are a great educator!! Very important to encourage and help each one "to feel good first!" then work harder!

I got a Fender for my birthday and didn't really know how to clean the fretboard. This has really helped, thank you.
Good job!
Awesome!
I usualy use linseed oil for clean m'y fretboard ( for black Woody only Rosewood or Ébène) cheap and really nourishing the wood.
I just figured everything sucks so my tone may as well too.
Keep working!

That’s the same guitar I have. My first. A squier strat. Mine is dark blue. I got a beginner kit. I have the same cleaner from di’darrio! I got another cleaner set too. It takes me forever I use paper towels and q-tips when I go it and the cloth. I always try to keep mine as clean as possible. Mine actually stays in tune pretty well! It’s coming up on 3 months with it. I’m lost on how to change strings. I need to look into that. I love the red! Thank you for this video Tomo!!!!
Thank you for sharing! Good job! You're very welcome!

That's a really great tip on tuning by ear... I don't know why I never thought about doing that, but I'm going to start.
Very important to do thing as if we were in late 50's or early 60's.
TomoFujitaMusic Thank you for sharing, Tomo.
I actually never use a tuner app/device. I only make sure the low-E string is fine (using a piano or doing it roughly by ear), then I tune the rest via the 5th fret.
Just a beginner, learn a lot from your videos!!

Thank you for your lesson and demonstration. It is helpful to see the amount of time that it takes to clean and set up a guitar. I think for you to be satisfied and happy with the instrument, it would take more set-up and leveling the neck. I am impressed that your eyes seem as sensitive as your ears in discerning the string height and neck flatness.
You're very welcome!
Thank you for all you do. For spending part of your life with us. we all should be humbled by your selflessness.

You know what Helped - with my Vintage Strat's tuning stability: I Replaced the String-trees with: Fender American Standard String Guides. They made a Huge difference/highly recommend = less friction. Enjoyed your tone and playing.
You can add something between the string tree screw so it can be raised. Do you stretch your guitar strings enough when you change strings? Thanks so much!!

Tomo`s Squire is now appraised for $1000 , lol
Ha ha!
That guitar sells new for $150, tops, with a starter kit-amp, strap, picks-but if I knew I was buying it from Tomo, then I know it’s in better than new shape, so I would probably pay $300 even if it was otherwise all original.
Of course for that much I would make sure he signs it!
I have that same guitar, and once I fixed it up, I’m pretty happy with it. I haven’t changed any parts yet, but I’m about to change the nut to a Graph Tech one.
Appraisal is $1,000.00 for the guitar plus $9,000.00 cause Tomo Fujita did the work, tested it, played it on a video and that now brings the worth to its market value of $10,000.00. Worth every penny, Tomo. : )
Literally just been setting up a used bullet too, great tip on tightening the bridge, had no idea it affected the tuning of other strings when bending.
Having exactly the same problem of "dead" sounds when plucking hard on high e around the 10th fret, tinkering with setup but maybe that's just as good as it gets, time to save up for a better one.
If you're willing to put in the work you can also get yourself a kit to file down the high frets that are causing the buzzing. If you like the tone of the guitar you have right how it would he a good investment
just hammer the high string down a little bit. use a rubber hammer and be careful, checking after every other hammering
Good stuff Tomo.
Thanks!

Funny you chose to do this video today. I bought a Red Squier affinity strat yesterday used .After 50 yrs playing its my first Fender.
Your timing so awesome!!
Tomo, a few months ago I walked into my local Guitar Center and picked up a Squier Bullet Strat in Lake Placid Blue for $49. Switched out the tuners for split shaft vintage style, switched the bridge saddles for bent steel. Put a mint green Hendrix style reverse slant bridge pickup pickguard on it. It's the guitar I pick up the most out of my house full of guitars.
Really needed something like this. Thanks!

Hi Tomo. I enjoy your posts and subscribe your Wisdom lessons. One of the main reasons that I like your teaching style is your positivity, which seems to come from a genuine place. I get really irritated by other channel's negative titles like "why your playing/tone/technique... Sucks!" Please don't go down that route!!! I want to be encouraged and challenged and you have your own style that makes your lessons special. That's why we love you 😃

If your camera is on "face detection" it will try to focus on your face. If it autofocuses in the middle, putting your hand behind the object will make a "bigger target" to focus on. Lenses have a minimum focusing distance (often written on the lens) and trying to focus closer just won't work. Hope it helps :)
I have no idea! Thanks so much!

Hi Tomo! Love your channel! I was wondering how to set up the guitar saddle height. I just got my guitar and don’t really know much about it.

Doesn't sound bad I got a shell pink one for 65 bucks that had some upgrades as well Strat is a good design Thanks Leo
Awesome!!
This is so interesting. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. I just bought a Fender Player Plus Tele and the setup is pretty terrible from the factory. It’s totally playable but I feel like it has a lot more to offer. The problem I am having with it is that the output of the high E string above the 12th fret is much lower than the rest of the strings. Also, even though it is well intonated, the B string still sounds a little out of tune to me. I could get it set up by a pro but I’d really rather learn how to do it myself.
You're welcome! Now you can maintain your own guitars!
@@TomoFujitaMusic I just raised me high E and the G strings slightly at the saddle and it completely cured the problem. Many thanks again!
設定とかメンテナンスは大切ですよね。最近は弦を張り替える時はフレットをフレット磨きのクロスで磨くようにしてます。昔はフレットの隙間とかに溜まったサビや手垢などは取ってましたが基本は乾拭き、後は時々オイルで指板の掃除と保湿はしてましたがシッカリと磨いた事はなかったです。フレット磨きするとトーンが凄くクリアーになりますね！生鳴りが少し大きくなるしベンドするのも楽になりました。
トモさんはメンテナンスもプロレベルですね！ピックアップの適切な高さとかもよく理解されてて凄いです！
ギターの鳴らし方(弾き方)とかもどう弾けば良いトーンになるのかを知ってて実際そのように弾く技術を持ってる。僕もギター弾く時にどの強さで弾いたら使用してるギターが良いトーンになるのかを勉強、練習してます。アンプのイコライジングはなるべく頼らないでピッキングの位置や強弱で良いトーンを探すようになりました。中々上手くコントロールすることば出来ませんが以前よりは少しは自然な音色が出せるようになった気がします。ギターのボリューム、トーン、全体の音色のコントロールだけではなく生活面の見直し、ただ長く弾くだけではなく休息を取りながら肩の力を抜く為に深呼吸したりストレッチしたり。
全てトモさんのお陰で物事を前向きに考え、余計なイライラとかも感じないようになってきました。本当に感謝しております。ギターのメンテナンス同様に自分自身も適切なメンテナンス(思考や生活のリズムの改善など)も大切なんだと学ばせて頂けてます。いつもありがとうございます！
いつもご丁寧にありがとうございます。いつも弦を変える時は、クロスで丁寧にフレットボード、フレットを磨きます。何もつけないです。ギターはいつも新たに学ぶ事が多いです。また新たに発見できました。ギターは、人生、生活、性格、全てにおいてプラスになります。楽しく生きるためには人生、体と心のメインテナンスもっても大事です。ただ食べて寝るだけだと後で支障が出てくると思います。
Yeah, I have been a D'addario fan for more than a decade now :)
Awesome!
You should get yourself a American performer Tele in Penny. Sound is incredible, Yosemite pickups work really well. I think thats the most uniquely beautiful color Fender's released
Awesome! Thanks!
great and tasty playing ...
Thank you!
I cleaned my used Squier Bullet Stratocaster with naphtha-aka lighter fluid-then orange oiled the fretboard, which was super dry so I did it again a week later. Polished the frets and basically everything else that is metal on the guitar. Then of course all the set up stuff.
I put on Earnie Ball Skinny Top, Heavy Bottom strings on, which range from 10 to 52, so the tremolo bridge bent way up. That was much more difficult to adjust than I thought it would be, but I got it.
I’ve only been playing a year, at that point only seven months, but I’m a good bicycle mechanic and was also a ski mechanic.
I haven’t opened the guitar yet, but maybe I’ll try that next, just to clean the internal parts.
I have exactly that same problem with my Squier Bullet Stratocaster, the buzzing in a certain area of the neck, almost no sustain there. I tried adjusting the action, but it didn’t make a difference, and I was about to try adjusting the neck relief but couldn’t find my hex wrench for that. I didn’t think about that it might be because the pickup magnet is too close to the string, making the guitar sound like it’s out of tune with itself; I’ll try that first.
That’s caused by the magnets in the pickups having too much pull on the string, so it’s literally pulling the string out of tone. When you play the string, it physically moves like a jump rope, and if the magnet is too close it causes it to go too far at the bottom of that jump rope action, resulting in it sounding like crap. Especially if you changed to heavier strings, then the pickups need to be lowered to avoid this problem because you have more metal for the magnets to pull on.
Same as with fancy, expensive bicycles, it’s best to learn how to do everything myself because it’s cheaper and only I know exactly how I want things, and I can make adjustments anytime instead of taking it to a shop.
Question: On that guitar, which is the same as mine, the tuning machines are crap. They’re not even adjustable. On top of that, the holes are 8mm rather than the Fender standard 10mm. I’ve been wanting to replace parts with genuine Fender parts, including the tuning machines so I can maintain that special Fender sound, but some of those Fender parts just don’t fit. Do you think it’s worth it to, for example, ream out those holes in the headstock so the Fender tuning machines will fit, or should I just buy another brand that does fit?
You can tighten the tuning pegs. Be patient and do your best!
@@TomoFujitaMusic ：Six months later, my Squier Bullet is gorgeous, plays gorgeous, sounds gorgeous. I changed the string trees, nut, and bridge saddles to GraphTech and installed Fender locking tuners. This guitar can take a beating and never goes out of tune now, whereas with the stock parts it would never stay in tune.
This week I’m upgrading the electronics to an Obsidian Wire Blender. Doing these upgrades bit by bit has been totally worth it, and of course I learned a lot in the process.
He has some nice chops

Hi Tomo - Thank you for yet another great video! I understand your point about how a cheap guitar might lead to bad habits if you are fighting with dead areas and other problems. On the other hand, I feel there is a point where expensive guitars have a high price because of a particular boutique brand name or vintage. Can you recommend any instruments or makers that are in the sweet spot - - guitars that are reasonably affordable (say less than $1,000) and will also be high enough quality for improving touch and style? Is it about getting lucky with the right used instrument? Or are there new guitars that hit that sweet spot? Thank you!!!! (PS - I'm really enjoying working through your Guitar Wisdom lessons!!)
You're welcome! Thanks so much! Basically I don't play this guitar. This lesson can be helpful to understand how important to setup great on YOUR guitar! Very often I hear some students play a great Fender custom shop guitars or expensive PRS guitars..but it can be sounded like SHIT! Because that guitar wasn't maintain well! So all means, just better to use better, best guitar that possible to obtain. Guitar will last forever so why not to pay top $$$ for best result! Work hard and get better guitar for life!

You’re talking but I’m just looking at the Amp I noticed it immediately. I have a Pro Reverb and it’s been my little secret. I’ve had so many people ask me what my amp is an how I get my tone on Instagram. I think the Pro Reverb’s are kind of unknown among a lot of people. There definitely a hidden gem within all the Fenders that have come out over the years.

I am going to buy my first electric guitar!
I want to “live” and grow more passion with the 1st electric guitar that i’m going to buy, do you have any recommendation?
I own a GS-mini and D-28, and i just really need a well-built overall for tone/dynamic sound, and i understand everything you taught in the video, i really hate “pitchy” sound with no dynamics,
My priority is i want to experience the feel of electric guitars that are played before 20s, because i really love all music in 4-90s,
So what are your recommendations?
Thank you very much!
I cannot give you exactly what to do but you can watch other videos with cheap Squier guitars. Think about how long you are going to use your first guitar? All depends. Nice to own better guitar for better result for sure. Cheap guitar has no dynamics. Just so okay with correct size, correct pitches etc. But no tone! I think you need better that those since you own better quality acoustic guitar. I would say... at least Fender SRV signature guitar which is really great! (for that price range) That guitar made John Mayer to next level!! If he was playing cheaper guitar..(?)
TomoFujitaMusic really appreciate your reply! 🙌🏻
I will take your advise to heart 🙏🏻
Yamaha makes pretty good electric guitar for beginners. The Yamaha Pacifica models are nice, easy to use, and affordable.
A fender bullet was the first guitar I have ever played the frets off.
Thanks for sharing
Please understand-the quality of the inexpensive instrument has improved dramatically. This is clearly demonstrated by the use of a $140 Squire Bullet Stratocaster on tour in concert by Mike Rutherford of the band Genesis. It was just like yours, but blue in color. I saw him play live last month and he used it on two tunes and if there is a major difference between that guitar and one costing 10 times or 100 times the cost of the Squire it was not apparent. The player on stage looked perfectly comfortable and the music was very high quality. I humbly would suggest re-evaluation of the price/performance of the budget guitar as some of your peers are using the m in professional settings with no obvious loss of quality. What do you think?
Thanks for sharing!
Is steel wool okay for polishing frets? Metal pieces won't get into the pickups if I cover it, right?
#0000 is okay. Fine one. Be careful!
19:50 please what is the solution to these triads?
I'm trying to expand my playing but I just don't understand. Lesson?
Don't worry! When that happens, all you need to do is to step back a few steps... so that you are going to understand that topic fully. Please join my Guitar Wisdom so you won't miss any foundation. Thank you!

Hi Tomo. Which fretboard radius do you prefer? 7.25 vs 9.5 vs 12?
I prefer 7.25 or 9.5
hi tomo, do you know how to fix open strings buzzing?? thx in advance
That's combination of the nut height, neck angle, the saddle (string height)
Hey Tomo I'm testing out 9s on my strat and now they're on the notes do not ring out properly and I can't get any sound bending especially my High e string. What adjustments do I need to learn to make?
Please watch this video!

Tomo I wanna ask you this question, so when I take note in the 12th fret , it is always sharp and it needs intonation yeah?
Same or slightly lower
Tomo, what height do you typical set your string action at as a starting point?
2.00 mm at 12th fret
Nice Tomo! Excellent!
I have a question for you... Have you ever played a Squier Vintage Modified Stratocaster?
Thanks so much! I only played cheap used Squiers.
Just added new lessons!!
