oh shit. A Shell Pink Senn, a green Rolling Rock, an orange pumpkin, a gold Maneki Neko, and a blue Impala. Its like aural Skittles for the soul.
StratMatt70 and there’s a full moon tomorrow. Might be a wild night all around.
Been tryin to go to sleep for a couple hrs.hmmmmmm
Your ‘little’ vids are showing the guitar world what can be done with a mobile phone and a bunch of talent.
Enjoy your beer, sir 👍🏻😎
Dear uncle Larry,
My wife and I watched “The Simple Plan” based on your suggestion. Odd but good movie. Working through the rest of your suggestions. Thanks for the tip.
Thanks for all you do. Keep it up. You da man
I don`t know if you realize but you rediscovered the guitar for so many of us. It`s crazy how much more we`re able to see in this instrument after last two months. Having a beer and a chat with Tom Bukovac is on my Bucket List.
There's nothing compares to Kerrygold on toast once you've had it. You're a man of impeccable taste Tom. Much love from Ireland
Tom, your effort with the Homeskoolin’ vids is the best thing that has happened EVER. My guitar playing has changed and especially my attitude or the way I think guitar, tone and gear has changed and has become so much more soulful, simpel and tasty. Thanks for the inspiration and for opening my eyes.
Same here man! Rediscovering how important chords are!
Amen!
Same here brother. really improved my playing and help guide my outlook on the instrument in a direction I knew it always needed to go which is becoming more musical and playing with as much feel as possible.
Same!
You know it's serious when both the cat and the jack-o-lantern are out. If a Christmas tree shows up next, it's over.
Love your personality man. Bet it would be a hoot to hang out with you and chew the fat. Thanks for what you are doing in these more than tough times! You Rock and blues, and al that other cool stuff you do!
Your little buddy from Cleveland playing Wembley. That was funny. Thats why when us club playing cronies in Cleveland are sitting around talking about Joe Walsh, Neil Geraldo, Neil Zaza, Wally Bryson, Eric Carmen and so many more...... your name is always at the top of the list. Hometown hero man, hometown hero!
Bill Kincaid neil was my guitar teacher !
didn’t realize there were two neils haha. Zaza was and still is the man. Him teaching and watching him on stage we’re two different people. I never truly understood as a kid that I was in the presence of a true virtuoso!
Tone Shop is a gem. Right down the street from my sister’s house. Of all the guitar shops I’ve ever visited, walking into Tone Shop feels like I just walked into my house. Those people are awesome. Cool to see you rockin their shirt!
Tom, your musical opening to this episode was killer.
Tim Farney - it was mind blowing! 👍
I have the same tee shirt from the tone shop . I got a great deal on a guitar and they put my gauge of strings on it and intonated it and put the Tee shirt under the headstock and shipped it :) . thanks Chad . Awesome jam Tom .thanks
Holy crap I did not expect you to play that over that track. Truth be told when you turned that backing track on I thought "what is he going to do with that". The chords you use and what you play over them confounds and amazes me. You amaze me sir.
You’re single handededly driving up stock on Rolling Rock, and crushing Gildan! LOL😂
😆😆
I love how you fit in the swig at the end of the jam. classic
Tom... You are the Fucking man!! I have been playing since 11 & now 40. Really dig your style man! RJB
Thanks Tom!
Tom, these 12 min videos have really inspired me man, can’t thank you enough. Also, those fluorescent lights on the ceiling, are likely the main cause of that 60 cycle hum 🧐especially the middle one with the bad ballast.
Good eye Charles, I been watching since day one and never noticed the ballast.
Tom , you are a phenomenal player and I could watch and listen to you play and tell stories forever.
“ I can’t mention any names but it’s initials were
“ Famous Music “ 😂 😂 😂
That one gets me every time 😁
Clearly I'm late to your videos.
But I am trying to watch everything you do!
Mr Rhrods had it right, you always bring something of value.
I find what you do in your podcasts is like no other.
At 60 now learning the guitar you actually take the time and show us building a song.
The loop the beautiful phrases over it when to play a d when to let the art breath....
So I'm commenting on this peice now a few yrs old because
1) it's important to say thank you when someone takes time to teach so Thank you
2) your just a talent I didn't know existed! Until 2023.
Anyway I know this long but it's where I'm at a this point of learning.
Also, I am sorry for the loss of your good friend
Mr M Rhodes I watched him with Joe Bonamassa! I think he and Joe did like double lead awsome!
Thanks also for the tips on using open tunings if your an older and learning.
Cheers
Doug 😎
Probably the best guitar show in the world
The opening piece really brings Jimmy Herrings Lifeboat Serenade to mind.
Couldn’t think of bigger compliment.
Fun Riff to roll with on the day of the Dog. Thanks Brother watch those fire pit nights...
We love you and we're not letting you go, Tom. -The Home Skoolin Family
I live in Northern Cal. I visited the Toneshop in the Dallas area. Cool t-shirt, cool store. Love your vids, thanks Tom.
TOM you play so gracefully man! Like a bird in flight,just so free to express. Thanks again
Oh my I love the initials joke. My dad used to always say stuff like "I'm not going to mention any names but his initials are Peter Nelson" when I was in trouble.
My dad said the same thing but I never knew who Peter Nelson was .
Hey THANK YOU for the wurlitzer trick last time AWESOME effect
The rest of the content is great too
That tone is so sweet
The color of that guitar is ace
Hey Tom. I was gonna comment but I gotta run my A/C filter needs changing. Thanks for the reminder.
reminds me of with a little help from my friends my kind of jam
Tom, seriously - what you just played at the beginning is one of the greatest guitar solos I’ve ever heard. What a talented cat you are!
With you calling the chords that has me settled for an hour on your loop..thanks UL
Your a solid inspiration
Any member of the homeskoolin family is family to me. You can drink my rolling rock anytime.
Watching these episodes has shed some light on some things. I love guitar more and more every day and your teaching is helpful and inspirational. If you practice, stay focused, don't overthink it, and have fun you can be as good as you want to be on guitar. There are some who have a gift and aptitude for it but most just work their butts off and play all the time, alone and with other musicians. You have to woodshed, there are no shortcuts. Thanks for putting in the time and teaching us some of what you know. God bless and cheers man!
Don’t know how to describe what I’m watching! What an artist! Thank you 🙏
Hey Tom! Thanks for your inspiration. I've got my guitars out of their cases and nowadays i play guitar every day. I watch your Homeskoolin show and i like your honesty, sense of humour and of course your wisdom and advices. Keep goin'!. Regards from Barcelona.
I am here because of the honest delivery and conversation and of course fantastic playing. Slight confession: I don't listen to this kind of music much let alone play it( I am eastern european and I dig more ancient folk music from theses parts) but Tom has gotten me to expand my vocabulary. My fave guitar channel hands down.
Love your musicianship, Tom. You have amazing taste in your guitar playing. Homeskoolin' is so cool. Not to be missed...
God Speed You Tom from Cleveland 😉
Greats from Portugal
Gotta hear the story on how you got the Fogerty gig...Tom playing with another legend!
Rhett Shull - had a link on his video for your video series, so, I’ve been binge watching them. Great stuff. I really enjoy your songs at the beginning. I guess we caught up in the newer dance songs in a band, that we just concentrate on what gets people up & dancing, & what is in the vocalists range. So great songs get lost in the shuffle, I guess. I’m a guitarist in a Dance Band. Now sitting home, luckily I’m retired so not living on playing out.
Effortless my brother!
That kind of playing should win you some awards or something... oh wait!
Loving the show, Tom.
Buko officially WINS the internet!!
Game Over!!
He has the most impressive award collection. What a champ!
Hey Tom. Greetings from Johannesburg, South Africa. At least this pandemic has some golden moments of positivity & inspiration, like Homeskoolin'. Thanks so much man.
You are one of my favorite things in life right now...THANK YOU.
Recently discovered your channel and still working to catch up on them all but wanted to say thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge with us! Yesterday I was working on one of your early how to sound like southern rock videos, and man it's pure gold. Those licks inspire others, and doors just open. I spent an hour working through that 3 minute video haha. I'm already doing one online course that's really helped my playing, and your perspective, context and tips have inspired even more! I hope you can get back to work when it's safe and I selfishly hope you keep doing these
I almost can´t comprehend how good you are, man. It´s insane. I´ve said it before in your videos - it´s the best I´ve ever heard! Thank you!
Love the game face.
Rhett Shull sent me here, glad he did :)
Just brilliant Tom !!!
I've got that same t-shirt, but in black!!
Man your bends are inspiring.....for some reason listening to your classes made me dig out some JJ Cale records
You are one tasty player Tom. The shit you play never ceases to amaze me! Keep it up....PLEASE!
Omg, man this is worth an album! This is just effing delicious dude!!
love ya Tom :)
We love ‘ya Buk 👍🏻
Love what you do. Thanks for sharing these videos. Encouraging and inspiring stuff. Authenticity is so rare!
Love the intro Tom. Very Beatle-esque. Great soulful playing as usual.
Yet another killer one. I love when you do the, “can’t mention names” bit.
Oh my god. Kerry Gold. Next level.

Hey Tom. Thank you so much for all your awesome insights and genuineness. These videos are really healing at this time, and you remind me of my guitar teacher who was a phenomenal guy, also named Tom. Take care man
Thanks for doing this! Every day i am in lab early, and it really helps to take ~15min to check out your daily videos. Makes my day every time.
Thanks for the cool progression and ideas Tom. Homeskoolers, keep those tips flowing in :)
Tom , could we please have a guitar lessons !!!?
You’re the guitar player I want to be . The way you play lead is so smooth and pocketed
Hey Tom, This is my favorite channel on TH-cam. Very inspirational, it’s like the TH-cam channel I needed in my life, but didn’t exist until now. Low production. Real inspiration. Keep up the good work buk!!
Thanks God I stumbled on your badcat serenade video last yearand made it one of my faves- been watching since you started these homeskoolin videos a month or so ago.. my guitars are out of the cases now and I’m playing more than I have in years. You inspire man! Thanks for all the great videos!
Thank you for sharing all your knowledge Tom
Nice melody Tom. Thanks for today's installment. You know, its almost like that feeling you got when you were a kid and you'd come downstairs to see your parents had left you a box of donuts on the table.
Even though it's cloudy, I decided that today was going to be my surf guitar day,
I gotta say. You're the only cat I know who can rock a salmon colored strat and still make it look cool. Keep it rockin' in the free world. FAQ da rona!!!!!
I doubt I’m the only one who wants the Gibson SG God to share some wisdom on the “Golden years” for the SG... like you did with the 335s a few videos back. Thanks for the inspiring videos.
I thought that was a tough loop to play over. Never the less best channel on the tube! Keeps my spirits up daily. I wasn’t expecting another Senn, His guitars must top shelf.
Wow......Tom you are up 10K on the subscribers since last week! This is great! I hope you hit a million by the time this lock down is over!
After watching the rig rundown that you were on I tried to find all your videos. You were like an Internet ghost. I'm really happy that you're doing there's videos now and I hope you keep then coming.
Kerrygold - yess!! Love that too since years ;)
Wicked jam, love the phrasing, just frigging awesome bud! This is my second run through binge watching each volume, been learning more each episode on the 2nd trip, LOVE IT!👍
I think my favourite word in english is Beatlesque, and that defines that harmony on this lessons background loop. Great job!
Mate. If you're ever in Sydney (Australia) there is a very large, very cold beer awaiting you. Learning SO much in lockdown and loving your style - keep that train rolling!!
You definitely gave me some inspiration to throw on a fuzz pedal and work some tones into the evening yesterday-thanks for your home schoolin’.
You’re a master of dynamics. Damn, dude.
Really loving your show! Your tips, playing, stories and just how cool of a guy you are! Thanks so much from Los Angeles! Cheers!
You are a seriously talented nice guy Tom! \m/
Beginning to make me realise that the rest here in ‘utubesville’ are just playing notes. It’s inspiring to hear, see and experience. Doesn’t happen too often.
It's a privilege to get to hang with you in your garage as often as I do.
And that's what it feels like, hanging with a friend in his garage that's sharing his guitar experience.
I was just picturing us all showing up in your garage at the we same time.
Pretty crowded! :)
Perhaps in an arena in a future time and place! :)
Cheers!
I mean, I already thought you were great and then you come out with the Kerrygold comment! Just discovered you recently but really loving your content. Also currently dying on my arse juggling work and home schooling our kids, so your t-shirt is a must-buy!
damn.. I need a looper.. that was a badass loop. Thanks Tom!
Can I just say, you've opened a well of inspiration in me!! Im writing melodies and finding chords that are "NEW" to me. Its great!! Thanks!!!
I got back into learning guitar at the beginning of lockdown, after something like 11 years off. I've got maybe a couple hundred hours in total and at least 50% of that over the last month. I've binge watched all your lessons in the last 2-3 days and LITERALLY EVERYTHING you have to say about guitar playing is at least 99 levels above my head... but this morning I nailed Green Sleeves, so thanks!
p.s. Guiness drinkers will disagree, but KerryGold is probably the single greatest Irish export.
wtg Robin Hood!
Man, you got that strat under control.
I dig the Canvas shirts as well. Those and Next Level only.
That was amazing! Beautiful tone and playing Sir - think I just soiled me drawers👏🏼
Hey BUKS! Just for you to know.. I was really inspired by your use of EQ on that rig rundown vid..
And yesterday I got myself one!! It is amazingly amazing and im having lotsa fun figuring it out.
So thanks!!!
Thanks for helping me get out of a guitar rut Tom 🎸
love the bends tom...
I woke up this morning and thought how dare tom take a sicky 😂but arrive home and it's up! Only gear channel I do this to 👌
