Hi Tomo. I read in your free advice page that "memorizing licks or playing up and down two-octave scales for an hour is not the best use of your practice time". But my doubt is this: how can we jam without having the scales in mind? I think it is important while playing. What do you think?

@@TomoFujitaMusic So we need to know every chords and scales position to improve our soloing, right?

[@JuicyLeek]

I think he means that memorizing licks for an hour or playing scales for an hour is not the best use of your practice time. A lot of guitar learners, especially the younger ones, just want to memorize solos and play them real fast like a badass. I think the point here is that this will make you a one-trick pony but not a great guitar player.

I learned about the rope and the speed bag from Bobo Olson he was heavyweight champion of the world at 32 years old. He taught me about training. Also walking is very good for rhythm-keep your first and your third on your right foot and your two and your four on your left foot. I grew up in 16 track recording Studio. Sometimes bands would do what is called the musician's walk. The whole band goes for a walk together and they all start out on the right foot. It's a timing exercise. Count the measures.

honestly man..after playing for 3 months, the thing I have realised is that human brain doesnt want to leave the comfort zone or try anything its not good at currently.It also overestimates the difficulty of such tasks. I felt I wont be able to switch chords, ply barre chords, finger pick and yes use the pinky ever. But, I stuck through it and all of them seem natural to me. Dont even have to think about them. And I can even play really weird shapes now. So keep trying..keep playing. Dont miss a day and you are golden my friend.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

I went to Shamisen store in Kyoto... and the owner of that store asked a few questions on Shamisen and he recommend not to buy it! Very difficult!

Been working on your 《Accelerate your guitar playing》really like the way you put things like guitar playing is like lifting weight，got me in the mood of really practice everyday. Really want to check out this "Playing with ear and feeling”book，but I couldn't read Japanese ，does it matter？or it's like the other book，able to figure that out by reading the tab？

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

You're welcome! Thanks so much! So great to hear that you own my AYGP dvd!! "Playing with ear and feeling" book is very heavy on my philosophy so...but you can use my other book "Solo Guitar Etude Book/CD/Tab...is very useful. (regular notation & tabs) I teach much more detail video lessons (more theory lessons!) at my Guitar Wisdom site.

[@mydogspyro]

Probably obvious but, why do you start on the off beat for the blues bass line practice?

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

This is simply the way many guys do this way! Easy to groove! Metronome on 2&4! Good swing feel! Good shuffle feel!

[@adrianbrown782]

Are the Berklee modern method for guitar books 1, 2 and 3 a good place to develop technique and musicality?

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

There are many ways of learning guitar. Those were supplement for teaching at Berklee so it's effective that if you use Volume ONE with a teacher. Without a teacher, no idea how to decide whether you're doing proper or not. I can recommend to check my Guitar Wisdom.

What is two four.? Do u have instructions cd sale in kinokuniya I cant find in tai Thank

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Don't worry! Watch other videos for how to use a metronome!

[@gamingguitarist6927]

2/4 time signature means 2 quarter notes for every bar. Most music is written in common time which is 4/4 (1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 etc), 2/4 time signature is half the length of 4/4 (1 2 1 2 etc.)

tomoさん、こんにちは。メトロノームを使用して練習するのが上達の早道ですか？一人で練習するのが楽しくなりますね！いいね👍😄🎸

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

ありがとうございます。丁寧に弾き意味ではメトロノーム無い方がいいですが、タイムの面でメトロノームがないとテンポが走ってもわからないおでメトロノームもボクの中で大切です。残念ながら早道はないんです（笑）無駄な時間がなくなる道はあります！

[@GENKEYtoYOUKEY]

tomoさん、了解です。いいね👍😄🎸
