Gotta love the kids who play guitar .
That Les Paul must be some haul for an 8 year old .
Worlds full of them . Were all too busy wondering about what colour pickguard gives the best tone to notice .

I always dream of getting a kid to one side and showing him everything I know . After 15 minutes , he would be a much better player for it lol

Good find Mark .

I dunno. He's so sloppy, he looks like Jimmy Page in his further out days. I hope it's not too late to unlearn some of thos bad habits...

Of course, I'm kidding! He looks like he's really in the song. When I see kids playing like this, my only thought is that they're so damned good, I hope they always remember it's supposed to be fun.

Yeah. I was doin that at 28. That's why I didn't pick up a guitar until 31.

I agree. It's like the little kids getting so into organized sports, beauty contests, and other activities because the parents want them to be. They want their kids to live their dreams for them. "I Know My Kid's A Star" is a good example.

When you're that age, it should all be for fun.
