I have this guitar - OMJM, and they are correct, the color in person is absolutely stunning. It doesn't come across in picture. This is a beautiful guitar

[@TomButwin]

Would love to have you over on my “Everything Mayer” podcast, if you haven’t subbed yet!

[@ginalopez7915]

@@TomButwinI’ll check it out thank you.

They are pretty striking in person!

Tom, I loved these videos last year! You are getting into interesting stuff and details which can’t be found on other channels! One question left: Are you going back to guitar center ? :)

[@TomButwin]

Ha! Well, firstly. Thank you. Secondly, I think they may have a “wanted” poster on the wall for me.

Tom, just curious, I’m starting a channel myself. I’m a singer/ guitar player, looking to base my channel around my talents and focus on gear reviews. Ultimately, I have a music product that I want to promote/sell. With that being said, any chance you could do a video on how you got started and what to expect along the way for someone just getting started? Or maybe just some words of wisdom? Thank you.

[@TomButwin]

Hey Mike, thanks for writing. Three steps to my advice: 1. Just start making videos. Practice. Make improvements on every element (on camera abilities, audio, video, editing, packaging). Make at least 25 videos and then look back and see what your strengths and weaknesses are. 2. Pick a niche/lane and really focus on that. If your ultimate goal is to sell a product you’ve made, that needs to be in place from day one. There are different ways to get there creatively and genuinely, other than just a commercial, so think about that too. Early on, being focused and “nich-ing” down is helpful. If your music product is something that can be featured through singing/playing performances, that’s a good way for the two to intersect. 3. The audience, as it builds, will tell you what is working and what resonates. Listen to the audience. It’s VERY hard to do, because sometimes what works the best and resonates isn’t what you want to be doing at that moment, but the audience can sometimes tell you things about yourself and your videos you don’t realize (good things and bad). I don’t just mean comments, but more so the click through rate and retention rate. I would love to do a video talking about this…but, I can almost guarantee you, it won’t do “well.” However, that doesn’t always matter. If 300 people watch it and it helps 300 people, then it’s worth it…and that will stick with an audience and help it grow. I still struggle with all of this. Happy to communicate more via email (on my website). Thanks for watching!

That grey tone has really grown on me

Gotta see it in person!
