- Pete sat down with Tom Quayle and asked him for some simple tips on practicing. Tom shows us how to get results by focusing on a singular thing.. let's call it "targeted practicing"... follow this method and you can walk away from each practice session knowing you've definitely improved your guitar playing! He also offers some great tips on "breaking out of the box" and improvising.. how to see the fretboard in a more musical way. Enjoy!
HERE IS THE VIDEO WE SHOT FOR TOM'S CHANNEL:

this stuff is golden these guys just unlocked the whole fretboard for you
What is so great about this little discussion (for me) is that it makes me realise how I've been overcomplicating playing over changes for years and years. I mean, if you can find that root note of the change, and you know the intervals (whether major or minor) in the chords, then you can kinda nail those changes quite quickly and efficiently. It's an incredibly simple way to view the fretboard and to break out of "box" playing.
You two are individually amazing. Together you have a really relaxed and educated co-teaching vibe. More please, Pete and Tom.
Ridiculous amount of GOLD in this video. And I agree... Tom would be great on the Tim and Pete show.
This video is solid frigging gold, especially when stagnation sets in with normal practice routines. The advice here is as useful for highly skilled guitarists as it is for beginners. Quayle is a beast and Pete Thorn is asking all the right questions. Perfect pairing. Honestly, it's been a while since I've caught a guitar lesson (based around the fundamentals) that isn't just some repetitive 'do-this-do-that' nonsense, or thew ubiquitous prog acolyte blasting through mindless, monotonous scales and shapes. Great stuff. Stellar, if I'm honest. Highly recommended.
I’m glad you liked it! I really enjoyed it too, and it was super off the cuff and spontaneous, the way it went down
I was watching Pete's stream today and asked him what his thoughts on Tom Quayle are, and after a lot of high praise he mentioned this lesson, and I have to say, this was an excellent watch. What a couple of class acts!
Tom Quale is so smooth that even doors want to get closer to listen to him.
Unreal how cool it is to have you two as guitar teachers, if at least for a few minutes. Thank you.

Great show Pete. Man, Tom can take 3 notes, move them around in different spots, at a laid back speed... still will drop most people's jaw. He is really amazing.
This rules. I need to practice now.
R.J. Ronquillo Guitar your already a monster player
like your humility R.J. You're a great player
Tom is one of the best guitar player on TH-cam
I cant believe how amazing this was. Them rebounding thoughts of eachother on specific skills. Pls more of you two!!!
It’s hard not to smile like a kid when Tom heads off on one of those legato runs! The guy is incredible.
That's the most agreeable tone I've heard Tom use. Very organic.
Two of today's best guitar expositors.
You guys have great chemistry.
best 23 minutes video on youtube. please make more lessons
I've been kind of in a rut lately but yesterday I changed my practice routine and it's already way more fun to play. I didn't really have a routine before, I just practiced songs I knew or learned a new song. But now I start with an easy song that I'm good at, then do like 10 or 15 minutes of exercises, then practice new songs or learn a new song, ending it with a newish song that I'm pretty good at playing. It's so much better. I heard so many people say to do it but for some stupid reason I never tried. If you're like me, stop wasting your time and try it.
This stuff is gold...
We get stuck in those boxes at first then realize that we just need to follow the formula - difficult at first - but with time you learn the fretboard
There is so much gold in this vid... Great lesson guys!
Tom is amazing indeed!
7:27 Great tip. Never heard this one before. Thanks Pete!
Wish I could've put a thousand likes to this. Gamechanging concept!
What great advice! If only I had Tom Quayle as a guitar teacher 35 years ago.....who knows??
That was exceptional!!!! Thank you . Slow is Fast, Focused is Fast!!! I get it now
Incredibly inspiring and I definitely think I've been guilty of trying to practice too much at once and getting no where - makes so much sense and I kind of kick myself for not having thought of it!!! Thank you!
The tips about practice are really helpful, I'm doing a bit too much at once at the moment, and not enough focus. Great video!
Tom is one of the best improvisers ever.
So happy that a couple of guitarist used ‘Guitcon’ as a teaching opportunity! Great stuff
I’m enjoying every one of these combinations.
TQ is an extraordinary player - and plays with ease and progressive vision. Wow!
Two of my favorite players! I just found this vid and the way Tom just unpacked the fretboard and intervals = MIND BLOWN!!!
One of the best explanations for simple phrasing concepts that gets you out of the boxes
pete is a monster player and is in awe of tom....great video
Tom is a great player and a gentleman.
Pete is no less.
Great insight guys
Thx so much Tom & Pete you just gave us probably the most important lesson that any serious musician should understand N think about 4 a while N this is about the sonic essence of intervals N eventually when you'll master this ...scales' box will be just miles away from your mind !!!
Having a good teacher is useful to stay focused on one thing at a time to improve.
Great instruction from two masters! You guys both have a knack for teaching the mental side of practicing and playing guitar!
A lot of awesome stuff packed into 20 minutes. Great job Pete and Tom.
I'm 10 minutes in and I've got to stop because I should really do some work today. This video has given me so much to practice and think about and maybe the first approach to fretboard mastery that sounds realistic and achievable.
Toms approach to scale shapes and moving around the fretboard seems to be what I'm doing (although a little more formalised). Find the root and repeat... I need to know the intervals though because at the moment I'm spotting the visual shape without any real understanding of the intervalic relationship.
Thanks guys, will watch the rest of this later.
That pentatonic run Tom does that makes you giggle, Pete! What a player... what a pair of players... now THAT would be an album Quayle and Thorn...
Just the most perfect advice I've heard from Tom before yet not practised enough.....but my next session with my looper I'm going to do this!!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!! Can't believe this is free. Great advice.
Two Awesome musicians!!!
Watched this a couple of times now and so many things have just clicked into place! Thank you guys.
I was searching for this video/advice for over 4 years. My theory knowledge is pretty poor although I have been playing for 10 years. I had a guitar teacher for a while and he did show me some theory but he never taught me why I need the theory for improvisation and how to approach the neck.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, I will be buying some lessons from Tom and Martin Miller!
This is going to be one of those vid's that I'll save and keep coming back too over and over again. Very COOL, thanks guys!!
That was inspiring! It's always nice to have someone telling you to get things simpler and slower :) Thank you!!!
Thanks for this. This help me out tremendously. I've been getting lost in the massiveness of learning. Now, I have direction to focus. Thanks
Congrats on 100k subs! Should have happened a long time ago! You deserve it. Thank you for everything Pete. This was another great one!
Love this video....I've been stuck in the box shapes and going nowhere. Very helpful....please post more like this!
Tom is totally amazing,I'm blown away by his playing,I wish I had that ability!!!
Good advice in this vid.
Great info guys. Probably the most informative and potentially productive instruction I have seen on the Tube this year. You are both such class acts!
Peter (and everyone) great volume and variety of GitCon content!
Thank you both for the best advice I have ever heard to help me become a better guitar player. I don't think I will ever be nearly as wonderful a player as either of you but I know I will be better than I am now after listening to your wise instructions. Thanks.
This is such a gift, thank you guys so much for taking the time to explain these practicing processes we can apply and also for sharing your passion so we can also learn :) very grateful
This is my exact thoughts whenever I pick up my guitar. “How can I make the most out of my time practicing and is what I’m doing actually improving my playing or am I just doing the same shit over and over with no improvement. Thanks for posting this 👍🏽
thanks, Tom really shared some valuable info here, I learned a lot!
Pete Thorn no doubt! Toms the man! When’s the classic rock show comin to San Jose California!
Thanks guys, this is one of the best lessons I’ve watched in a while.
Great video guys. Love me some Pete and Tom. Both of you are such great teachers and I have leaned a lot from you two
Great show Pete and great guest!
Pete that Gold top strat gets me everytime!
Love it: thinking in intervals a great way to expand fret board road map
this idea has opened up a new window for me thanks
It's a little bit of a shame about the audio, but Christ almighty is Tom Quayle an incredible player. So clean and smooth. Y'all need to get together more. :D
cam audio- we had to do it wherever we could find a space (which was tough), when we had a free hour.... work with me here! It basically sounds like what it sounded like in the room- pretend you are in the conference room with us haha
Pete Thorn Haha, I figured as much. Honestly it's some great content, not meaning to be critical. Lord knows how hard it must be to find a quiet spot during a guitar convention. :P
I saw the other side of this (on Tom's) and it was awesome, delving on the psychological part of it. Been a fan of Claus Levin for a long while and will definitively check this out. Like I said to Jason Mcnamara on his interview with Tom: you guys are changing the face of music on how musicians are perceived, very interesting and...Thank You all!!!
Great lesson
Wow thank you for this video! This is like the single best lesson for me personally.
Awesome video from two awesome players! Thanks for the fantastic information!!
Thanks, Pete & Tom. This type of content is very valuable.
Loved the interaction and the connection - Thanks guys great lesson.
Guitar Of Doom .... or, very nearly - once these two guys get done showing the rest of us how the thing really gets played it may very well be!! These two just keep getting better as players over the years, amazing.
The really cool thing - the guys are all already awesome by themselves... - but if you watch Pete and Tom here - (and check out the other sessions at GuitCon) - what comes out of that interaction and collaboration - amazing!! - There is so much to be taken from these videos.. - now you come to realize what great thing Henning (Pauly - HP42) did in getting this organized ... - hope it can be repeated!! - And yes, Pete - we need a Tom and Pete guitar show... - and a Pete and David... - and and ...
This was an amazing video, a lot of useful information. Nice work!
Best thing for my lead guitar has been learning other people's licks and solos, while also learning the chords and notes of the progressions behind them (not just one genre or style either). It forces me to learn techniques, timing and note choices i would not normally consider, or tend to steer clear of.
I will hear a solo and think wow, I have to learn that. I get bored playing it very quickly, but adsorb so much from doing it. It adds to my own style that grew from learning all those stock blues and rock licks in major and minor pentatonic with the odd extra note chucked in. Learning the chords supporting the lick or solo helps me understand why certain notes work so well.
I have learned and applied modal theory several times, but it never sticks. Some good stuff comes out of modes though. If I have to play D mixo, I will play e natural minor with tonic of D. Seems to work and is easier than thinking in major scales, alothough no teacher will recommend it. I prefer to just play instinctively by the experience of knowing what works and what does not. if stuck for an idea, I either stop, or i repeat (or pick slide etc hehe)
I have also practiced both that whole note upstroke thing to a beat and Petes bending to pitch exercise, i.e little phrase followed by a bend to pitch, or the other way around. They helped for sure. Tom's taking the finding the note all over the fret board and expanding it to intervals is something i am about to try now. Well, as soon as the coffee kicks in.
Brilliant.
Hey Pete your awesome ! I just recently fell and screwed up my guitarhand and being 60 I have to play now with pain all the time but hey Im going to do it and practice simple things like you were mentioning
This is just so awesome, thumbs up all the way.
This is terrific! What a great lesson! Excellent. Thank you for this great info.
Great suggestions from two great guitarists.
Definitely tiny bit of a information makes huge different. Surely i will follow the rules. Thank you both for bringing up this video.
Fantastic, FANTASTIC Video! I'm a huge fan of you both. Thank you for this one.

Really interesting lesson. I don't really have a problem finding way around the fretboard but this surely puts a different spin on things
Fantastic and clearly explained. Cheers guys!
