Young kid playing Just Destroyed The World

Post by Jason King »

Jacob has been working on this of late and is having a lot of fun with it. Thanks Mike McGee for all the help. Jacob will turn 12 in a couple of weeks. I can't believe its almost been a year since I bought him a stage one for his 11th birthday and his addiction was started. The steel guitar family has been very supportive.

IMO, he is well on his way. However, I hope that his parents will stress the importance of his schoolwork outranking his steel playing.
