Hi All, Happy 4th!
I was lucky enough to do something similar to Chris's family event yesterday. Here's a photo of my 6 yr old grandson, Carter and I jamming. I'm playing a G harp while he's playing along in open G on my PRS. In the picture he's playing a barred D. The PRS is great for learning because I just call out the bird names and he knows where to fret the chord.

Wonderful. He sure looks up to you!
It would be great if you had a video (or even just an audio) of the two of you. Nice looking guitar. Perhaps you've created the next rock star.

Bravo Bill
Grand kids or the best! When my grandson Abel stops by, he has me get my guitar and he get on the drums and count me in. I keep trying to get him to count to four then start. But he tells me we cant start till he get to ten. I just tell him count us in. Ha Ha .
The best sir

I guess Abel's going to be a jazz drummer (and play in 10/4 time). Heck he's probably already writing "Take Ten" (his generation's version of Brubeck's "Take Five")
