About Thom's instruments
In the Wheel of Time books, Thom Merrilin (played by Alexandre Willaume in the TV show) is a skilled gleeman with a far-more-interesting-than-he-would-like past. He demonstrates his skill with both a harp and a flute. But interestingly, WoT TV showrunner Rafe Judkins and his team made the decision to give Thom a guitar instead.

Amazon has already released preview videos of the Winespreing Inn, Tam's heron-marked sword, and a basic audio trailer.
