    "Don't worry. Don't compare. Don't expect too fast. Be kind to yourself, be kind to others. If you do that with your guitar, your life gets better. Other people's feelings get better. I think we can make this world a little bit better place."

    Tomo...that "horrible" run was funny as hell. That was the anti BB run. What made BB so special was all of the space he left and how economical he played. Millions of guys can play 50 times faster, but BB could hit just ONE NOTE...and slay them all.

    Great lesson, Tomo! You show us the right path to follow. It's not pentatonic or other scales---- it's music. It is about emotion and how beautiful the guitar can sound. There is no limit. We can spend our whole life trying to play like BB King but we will only be his students. After the 3rd level is the 4th level---- singing and playing at the same time!

    I've watched this video a couple dozen times now and I'm really starting to feel like I can follow the chord changes and connect triads from other lessons to be able to play what I hear in my head. The real kicker was to stop thinking in minor pentatonic shapes which were super limiting and to start from the ground up with triads and harmonic rhythm (even though it was really tempting to fall back on muscle memory from playing shapes for years). Thank you so much for the lessons, I can't wait to keep learning and improving!

    I have heard of the B.B. Box before but this video and your playing made it more clear to me where to go and how to do it. Excellent stuff. It is also easy to see and hear that Eric Clapton and John Mayer have spent considerable time learning these notes and licks. And you are correct, B.B. was the king of bending.....and leaving space between the notes. His playing was always very tasteful and timeless. I saw him live twice and feel blessed to have seen him before he became ill. He was the king!

    • @TomoFujitaMusic

    Another fabulous video!! When you were deliberately playing poorly it reminded me of when I thought I was playing brilliantly! I follow 3 guitar teachers on TH-cam for different purposes. I joined Guitar Wisdom and find the platform invaluable. Your lessons are simple yet robust with knowledge. I mastered Twinkle Twinkle Little Star using several inversions and progressions just by thinking about chords. As to BB king I think the key is nugget in your lesson is “space”. I’ve slowed down and created more space in between my phrasing and my soloing is more fun and enjoyable. One thing: I’d love a lesson / video comparing techniques between Albert King and BB King. Thanks!

    • @TomoFujitaMusic

    What's amazing about this video, other than Space 🖐, is that it shows you what not to do. Even though I'm miles away from being able to do what's being demonstrated, the simplification seems like a gestalt figure-ground flip. Same with the video on Triads. In neither video did I see what I expected to see. Yet I feel like the ideas alone have improved my playing by changing my focus. Thanks again.
    I never imagined that B.B. King was influenced by slide guitar.
