Tom is an absolute one-of-a-kind. He loaned me some gear for one of my first "big" sessions years ago (it wasn't that big, really😄) and I muddled through it as best I could. When I brought it all back I had a zillion questions and he very patiently went through a kind of "Nashville Session 101" with me. Here's the tuner to get. Here's how you dial in an amp to get a tone that's full, but cuts through. Here are the main guitars you really need for almost any session. Here's how you TUNE the guitar when the intonation is off (as it was for most of my guitars) but you need to use it- basically he said you find the chord or the area of the fretboard you're going to be using the most for that song or that track/part and tune the guitar to that. He was so excited to talk gear and walk me through it all! But most of what I've learned from Tom has been from just watching him play up close. Everything he plays is a lesson in phrasing, note selection, and taste. His touch and dynamics are otherworldly.

@@NightpantsAt 11:50 he talks strings. So Yes, but... He also said he could probably play 9's and he didn't think strings made that much of a difference. He told the Billy Gibbons story who started playing 8's in 1971 because BB King looked at his guitar and asked him why he was working so hard. Based on his explanation of not being able to easily bend the high E string, it's possible age had something to do with it. I've heard SRV moved to thinner springs as he got older.

I asked him about the Strat, and he said he doesn't usually get too attached to any guitar, but that he could not part with that Strat. (Interesting to hear him say in the video he is probably a Gibson guy.) He left the band not long after that, so I feel very fortunate to have seen him live...with such a great band.

What an absolutely amazing player.
@joesatchton2124 жыл бұрын
I like to think of Buk as the Keanu Reeves of guitar - he's just so chill it's incredible. Best thing about him is that while he's full of defined opinions and strong beliefs honed over many years, he's not out to convert anyone to his way of thinking. He couldn't care less what you use - as long as it works and sounds great to him and what he's looking for. And he immediately credits others for their ideas and hard work. Zero sense of artifice from this guy. The noisiest, most troll people online are exactly like small barky dogs - at their cores, they're all ultimately deeply insecure. Buk and people like him are at the exact opposite of the spectrum - totally secure in who he is and what he does and what he believes, but not afraid to admit when he's wrong and to change his mind. We should all aspire to be as chill as Buk - we'd all be a lot happier. :) Awesome work PG, John!

I used to go to The Surfside Lounge quite a lot between 1973 when I got out of the Navy and 1978 when I left Ohio. It was a very local bar and I lived close to it. I remember Toms mom and she was always a really nice person. Tom would only have been 10 years old when I left Ohio so I doubt I heard him play at the bar and I do not remember him. Good to know a local boy made something of himself.

This is by far the best RR. Tom has played on thousands of records and you are getting the benefit of all those tones he achieved for the best producers in the world. Notice that his gear is almost exclusively 50yrs old or older.

This set the bar to a new high. Just awesome. Great explanations of how to use the tools, adjusting on the fly. Easy to see how he has been so successful as a studio guru.

I just discovered Tom literally 20 minutes ago today, and I can tell he's a force of nature.

I love how Tom picks up a guitar and plays exactly what best exemplifies the instrument. Amazing player and seems like such a dude.
