Do you use BB King Box? ✩ Must know 3 Levels

[@OceansGroove]

Thank you! Regards from Barcelona, Spain❤

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

You're very welcome! From Boston MA

Just got to this gem of a lesson yesterday. Great ideas for creatively working through the BB Box that doesn’t talk only about the pentatonic scales. I get much more out of thinking about triads as you have described. Now on to the SRV ideas. Thank you and have a beautiful weekend.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Glad it was helpful! I teach this way. Anyone can teach shapes, licks & chords! Those are information! I teach a little more details. Thank you!

[@matthijsmonnikhof798]

I love your videos and your vision! They are amazing! I’ve been playing for 2 years. Learned your channel last year. Trying to practice all the triads every day. It’s taking time but I’m starting to “see” the light. It will probably be the best thing for my guitar playing in life! I will not stop to practice! Slowly, triads, practice and patience!

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

So happy to hear that. Thank you so much! Good job!

[@skymusic1897]

Always feel your joy and passion about teaching. God is great. His grace is not only a free gift for salvation but also an infinite resource of motivation (just like you enjoy teaching the guitar). Praise to our Lord. Grace and peace to you, Tomo.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you! I am so grateful! I love teaching guitar & helping people!

[@retro-1236]

Tomo, you are the best. Thanks for everything. You're truly inspiring.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

My pleasure! Thank you so much!

[@cameroncrawford9598]

Another great lesson, thanks for taking time to film and explain. Have you seen any of the BB King master class going around KZbin? Lots of triads!

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you so much! You're very welcome! Yes! Best to listen BB's old recording!

[@Andrew-cp6ko]

These videos give me so many ideas, thank you 🙏

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

So happy to hear that! Thank you!

今月号のギタマガのツアーのお話、とても興味深く読ませていただきました。トモ先生のプレイを聴けば誰でも共演したくなりますよね。ありがとうございます!

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

ありがとうございます！読んで頂いて嬉しいです！

[@mavericke1985]

Awesome lesson Tomo - Perfect for those starting to understand their triads and being able to use it! I work a job that I also love and the time goes by FAST. It's a blessing my man!!

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Great to hear! Thank you for sharing!

[@ChangedEver]

Sir, you are an amazing professor and talented musician! Thank you for your continued work!

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you so much! My pleasure!

[@ChangedEver]

Saw BB before he died. I balwed my eyes out because he just couldn't play the way he did before. Yet he still brought a joy an indistinct sound.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you for sharing! Thank you so much!

[@FerrisFlyer]

Amazing! Im transcribing "blues we like" from bb at the moment! so many great ideas in it for the bb box. And now I have urs to reference too. Thanks so much Tomo!

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you so much! You're very welcome!

[@jjlbridge7877]

Love this!

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you!

[@benallmark9671]

Thanks Tomo. Great little lesson. Enjoy your weekend my friend.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you so much!

[@jamesrusso2523]

Thank you ! You explain better than BB , I have his 3 videos. He Explains ,but doesn't break it down like you.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you so much! BB King is a musician and not good at explain as lessons. That's why most pro musicians cannot explain well on own playing or guessing too much... Thank you!

[@scottdobson5994]

Loving all your triad videos and BB King is great to learn phrasing. Thanks for the lesson.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Glad you enjoy it! Thank you so much!

[@Gr8FriknApe]

W o O w! Great fingers and deliciously creamy notes from a master in music! Thanks Tomo San! BTW, I found a university online that would let me take their Music Theory course for free. I enrolled with the Edinburgh University, in Scotland. It's a detailed, 6 week course. I finished my first week today. I practice guitar and piano every day. You inspire me to keep upgrading my knowledge of music. AAAAARGGGGH! I need my REVERB! (laughing).

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you! You're very welcome! Great! Awesome! Please enjoy!

Love that color of red on that axe! 🔥🚒🧯

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you!

[@RobiRaw]

Love the simple but having massive effect on my quality of playing. How about the same simplicity getting into the Delta Blues

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you so much! Could do same.

[@guydavidesko388]

Thank you Tomo, Great video. BB's licks and yours sound so good! So cool that BB's lick has the same notes as 1 and 4 chords. No need only to go outside the "box" except for 2 bars, Briliant. Would you use the 5th position to fill in after the lick for chord 1 and the first position to fill in for chord 4?

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

You're very welcome! Chord tone & common tone! Triads! I chord you can play around E form, C form too! I don't think about positions More about the sounds than the shapes!

[@guydavidesko388]

Yes, I see (hear) what you mean. Shapes can be limiting. I'll try to learn and get familiar with thinking chord notes. Best start with triads ❤

[@myhapylife]

Hi Tomo, I like how your guitars intonate, do you have some tips for intonation beyond standard intonating tips? If we consider that nut and frets are in proper shape.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you so much! The guitar is great! Setup well! Triad exercises can teach those intonation!

[@moussmouss6831]

Hi Tomo, I have some Japanese music books that I’d like to send to you as I don’t read Japanese. What is the best way to contact you?

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

You can contact me [e-mail] I have already too many things!

[@katsunori.bb.kawai.6633]

Thank you Mr.Fujita. Good lesson(B.B box)!. (And your history talking.) 👍🙏😎

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much!

[@ChintzMusic]

Good morning Mr. Fujita - I just saw a video made by a student (Rob Tai) of one of your former students, Dylan Meistrich. Dylan apparently had to sell his favorite guitar, and Rob surprised him by building a replica kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5zTg2CqpZuWhqcsi=iBmmfrzGpVSMFGI5 It was a beautiful video and brought tears to my eyes!

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you for sharing! Beautiful!

[@federicofoggiato9049]

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THE SHIRT😍 Great lesson tho🤣😇

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Yes! Thank you!

[@southernpride2003]

Is that an Esquire strat

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Yes! Thank you!

[@crutz3064]

why doest this sound so much like "Gravity - John Mayer" haha

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Because that was what John learned it from!

[@w.terrace5394]

BBK guitar sounds good because he couldn't read notes. He played by his ears only. That's my opinion.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

He cannot read but he can hears so deeply! Case by case! Somebody can read music so well and no great sense of good music!

[@duck_5150]

So BB king box for Mayers 'Gravity'..

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Foundation of feeling!

[@johnpereira2910]

Without that large band and horns backing you up BB Kings guitar is not interesting or credible. Of course he would be a master at making full user of that band dynamic. Context is everything in this situation.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you for sharing! I love those horns! Lovely!

[@oov55]

please stop the BB thing... annoying ... always was

[@jackfromthe60s]

I like it. Now please go and watch a video you don't find annoying. Or do you enjoy torturing yourself?

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

So fresh to hear that! Thank you for sharing!
