Please relax and enjoy some solo guitar pieces both acoustic and classical.i was a street-musician, on weekend only at the Ghibli Museum, Mitaka Tokyo for one year from 2005 to 2006, surrounded by lovely children and family.Now i live in a town away from Mitaka and cannot play the guitar so often for those who visit the Ghibli Museum.Then i found YouTube to deliver my sincere feeling to you directly.Please especially check my recently uploaded videos. i am sorry, the older one, may be not so good as of the sound and picture quality, as you expected, :) :D :P ...At first, the videos was directly uploaded by a $30 web-camera, once and for all, no 2nd take ;) ... loli have improved them step by step, little by little. i appreciate your understanding on this matter. i will improve and remake some of my pieces according to your request.Your comments, rating and viewing on my channel always encourage me to play the guitar for "you", whenever you feel good, not so good, not so bad, or anytime you want.Please enjoy watching my videos and leave a comment or rating if you would like to, but please don't just spam with guitar tabs request.♪#### FAQ ####♪Q1: How have you learnt playing guitar? and how many years took for you to play like you do now?A1: i started playing the guitar when i was 11. So i have played the guitar for 34 years. i took a classical guitar private lesson intensively for 2 years from 1978 to 1980 under a professional guitar teacher. i believe at that time, when i was 17 year old, was the highest, in a technical sense, playing almost any guitar songs, which currently i cannot do though ;) ...shame...;) After that, i did not play it so often for 30 years. i re-started playing the guitar on every weekend in front of the Ghibli Museum in Mitaka, Tokyo, from 2005 to 2006 with a volunteer sprit.Q2. Can you send me tabs?A2. Sorry, i cannot. Please note that i have deep respect to music composers and arrangers such as Joe Hisaishi, Nobuo Uematsu, Nobuyuki Hirakura and Daisuke Minamizawa. There still remains some copyright problem as well. And they are reason why i cannot send tabs to anyone except it is definitely my own invention and product, so that we can keep on enjoying their beautiful music in the future. Q3. What do you mean by "lonlonjp version"? "lonlonjp version" is my original guitar arrangement and my own playing. However, i am not good at reading and writing guitar tabs. it takes me really heavy, painful efforts to write down a guitar tab. Actually, i do not use guitar tabs at all. i by far prefer a simple music sheet. it's easier for me to read and play at a glance. Regarding other videos, the score and tabs which i am using are easily available here in Japan. Almost every music shop has them. The Internet bookstore amazon.co.jp may help you to obtain the tabs from abroad, outside Japan.Best regardslonlonjpMy guitars are as follows;Classical: Manuel Contreras-I Double Top, Madrid 1986 purchased at his guitar workshop, 80 Mayor, Madrid in Spain.Acoustic: - Black Ibanez EW10ASEOBK 2008 bought at Music Plant- Morris W-40 H Sasaki 1975 bought in 1975 at Yukigusa Gakki in Takasaki-City "雪草楽器"Mini Guitar: Hokada model no.3167 ROMANIA bought in 2000 at Soho Square in LondonUkulele: $10 souvenir bought in 2007 at Guam Resort.Special thanks to my guitar teacher 30 years ago and those who view my channel often :)cheerslonlonjp
