I showed my nephew a few major chords when he was about 10. I remember him signing along to "Knocking on Heavens Door" and it was truly awful. I never thought he would stick with it.
A few years later he was playing Pat Metheny solos at open mics and gigging with his classical guitar at art shows, etc. All state high school band several times and now playing in college.
I take all the credit, other than the fact that there is no TV in his house, he likes to spend time alone, a lot of parental encouragement and some amazing teachers. He earned it, there are no short cuts, even for so called child prodigies.
