hi i'm new

me and my hubby are into metal music and our kids grow up around guitars on the walls and metal / punk music also my hubby plays guitar. i have a guitar but i'm not good lol. one of are small kids has been into guitars since he was 1 and at 3 started to hold the guitar right and strum , he just truned 4 and was struming counting 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 from a vidio he seen . he getting a half size warlock style electric guitar for his xmas but were wondering how is best to teach a child who is only 4 and is kind of hyper but loves guitars . my hubby his dad just wants to teach him himself

also are other kids want to learn who are 11 , 9 (only girl )

and we have a 1 year old ( 2 in sept) he loves guitars he is also gettinga half size for xmas but not a warlock and its just to keep him away from the 4 year olds lol

all the kids mess with my hubby full sized as he got a few lol but none can play and the two littles have half size accostics they play with but there just cheep ones

hi .....1/2 size gits are a PITA to setup and tune...so get them on small bodied
shortish scale gits when things seem to be getting serious about learning..keep them
at it thou... they'll never regret it..ROCK ON!!
