Today i would like to tell you something about Tom Petty. Hes not a „guitar virtuoso” for me. Hes not like Yngwie Malmsteen, Joe Satriani or Jimi Henrix. Hes not playing fast and complicated, but he is a great guitarist. Tom is a master of strumming and minimalistic riffs in the background.

Maybe someone would like to say, that there is nothing difficult in just guitar strumming and just playing few notes/chords. I think, that there IS something difficult. Feeling, dynamic, smoothness, aggression – you can make it in many different ways. You can be boring, or you can have passion.

If you dont know too much about Tom Pettys music, here are some cool videos.
