Tommy, I"m elated I discovered you. You are an absolute treasure of a person and guitar wizard. (despite not knowing you) I love your light hearted humorous style, you are so down to earth and refreshing. I cannot accolade you enough. You make learning about music so enjoyable, positive and possible even. My love for guitar couldn't be better because of you. Play on and keep opening those doors. You rock and groove to the music beautifully in perfect tone, timbre and time. WOW is all I can say. You put a smile on my face my man.

[@CuntyMcCuntface-vc4do]

and people say you can't get a perfectly tuned chord with a guitar. nonsense. the harmonics are pure the chords are pure hes perfectly in tune. its like magic...

[@epipick]

We can only marvel at this man.

[@jasonjohnson4170]

Love to see you in this context

[@carljohnson4691]

I met Eddie Pennington at an informal jam session, along with Royce Morgan, at a friend’s house in Kentucky. He’s right about Eddie. Eddie’s son, Alonso, is also very good. Royce Morgan plays a different style, but is also outstanding. Eddie and Royce talked about Mose Rager and Merle Travis in such a way that I gathered they knew them personally. Tommy Emmanuel is awesome as a player, but also because he genuinely loves to share his knowledge.

[@CuntyMcCuntface-vc4do]

ive been playing a long time. chet atkins strikes fear in my heart. amazing

[@bagragaurav8]

Keep rocking TOMMY!!!!

[@jozo432]

Thank you Tommy

[@robertlee8042]

I’ve found that if you pull it to flatten it that it will go sharp again as the tension moves toward equilibrium. I have found that you need to tune down and then up to get right and stay right. But who am I?! I can’t play as well but this is my experience.

[@ΓιώργοςΚατσαρός-ω1β]

The only thing i can say about Tommy is...'' He is milles away from us all ''

[@stayfocused6374]

Yet so close at the same time

[@ralex3697]

Light years away, on another level Inspiring guitarist

[@alexeignedyuk8122]

Tommy the Best!!!

[@hitlereinstein8935]

I agree, first aid kit, borrowed from the bobby gentry thing with silver lining.

[@нормальныйКомментатор]

Tommyyyyyy!!!

[@antoniomaiellofficial]

The song in figure 23? Which is the title?

[@pizzapooptheclown2832]

Finally I can play one of Tommy Emmanuel’s tunes! Well I mean I can tune.

[@pankajjoshi2032]

How do you upstroke with a thumb pick? I just can't do; I'll become one of those who gave up in less than a week.

[@szczerzo]

I love how among those legal battles on who "inspired" who in what tune Tommy come out and just blatantly say they are all petty thieves because that's how music works.

[@sammccue500]

I knew the late Ike Everly, and he told me that he and Mose Rager learned the thumb picking rhythm from a man named Arnold Schultz who "was sort of a dark complected fellow."

[@24by79]

Whats the name of that song? .which he tella about listening with chet atkins.

[@juleslemelle9027]

Harper Valley PTA; it's the name of that song.😊

[@pablomcelio]

What insane body has this tone. Congrats!

[@JackTheSkunk]

I prefer him on a Tele. But it would be interesting to hear him on a nylon string.

[@Ropaccinno]

it would be awesome if Tommy did some acoustic stuff from John Mayer

[@kevincasals6603]

His playing is so clear

[@ralex3697]

He is a master, greatest living talent today

[@tanhor7992]

what's the song played behind the first title of the movie?

[@roningood4817]

Nine Pound Hammer - Merle Travis

[@hammertownpavao]

I have said it over & over & I will continue to say it over & over Chet Atkins is The Greatest!

[@bennettstephenson9090]

trying to play the guitar for me were just a little bit difficult. so get up! one day and just smash it upon on the Damn ground and that's was it with the guitar.

[@phrygiandom8202]

thank you sir!

[@shreydon35]

lets chune our guitar :P

[@kickpublishing]

Only Americans pronounce T at the beginning of tune. No other English speakers do - the standard is from the original speakers. American pronunciation is bastardised from the German, French, Italian etc immigrants to the USA who couldn't pronounced English properly and fed their mistakes back into the vernacular. In some English words, especially those followed by an Uoo sounds its pronounced Tch not Ch and not Tee.

[@carljohnson4691]

So?

[@alexanderbrown4250]

@@kickpublishing Wrong! Modern American English pronunciation is much closer to 17th Century British pronunciation than modern British pronunciation. Language is constantly evolving. When a group of people brings their language to a new land, they tend to preserve its pronunciation, while it evolves and changes in its native land.
