    The strength he's talking about and the clarity on the 'rainbow' part...that's no joke. Even great guitarists generally can't do that. You can do for a few seconds but not sustained with the clarity. That's phenomenal skill. Inspiring to future generations! What a great guy, too!

    Total love for the instrument. No matter what level you are at playing, I personally can’t walk past a guitar without playing it. I have been like this for over twenty years and I’m now fortunate to make a living doing it, even though it’s only playing covers in pubs. Guitar has changed my life 👍🏻

    Those harmonics are just insane. Many people do them (Eric Johnson throws some in once in a while) but this guy has an amazing technique. I didn't hear one missed chime. Practice.... he just plays and plays and plays. He already paid his dues and now he's reaping the rewards. The guy is a great player.

    People that don't play the guitar probably don't see why that over the rainbow bit was frickin amazing, playing a song with just harmonics?..... O.o

    Tommy's dedication to guitar perfection is unmatched. Endless hours, days, weeks and years honing his craft. And is just as passionate today as he was when he was a teen. An amazing and humble talent he is.

    "Some days I'll just play Cannonball rag for an hour to build motor skills" my fingers ached after watching just 10 seconds of that, the speed and accuracy. Tommy is the Greatest of All time F*ck Rolling stone.

    This guy made his guitar sound the way falling rain sounds in my dreams. I am moved by the shear beauty of it. I will surely remember his name. Thank you TG for posting this video.

    There always has to be people at Tommy's level of skill as it makes sure we 'mere mortals' never give up trying to improve.

    There is no 'ultimate' guitar player, there is no best in music-it is not sport, but many people who are not musicians and some who are persist with the competing and ego-driven popularity contests. Music is expression, and we all express our emotions & thoughts uniquely. This is why there is room for all players to present their work. Tommy is a phenomenon, superb, he has dedicated his life to his craft. Play on, give us excess of it!
