Hey there, young man! Wonderfully done. Amazing for just 7 years old! You’re well on your way to becoming a great guitar player. Be sure to thank your parents for the support they’re giving you for what will be a lifetime of joy creating music. I hope to see more of your playing!

Fantastic. Music is a universal language. How great to learn to play it early.

Very good!

The pauses in the tune should be where his attention should focus on when practicing. Practicing those position changes in slow motion, instead of forcing performance tempo, will build the muscle memory quicker.

I agree with TBman.
I too wish I could have started at that age.
Your playing is very good. Keep up the good work

I enjoyed the playing very much! In fact, that is phenomenal playing for a 7-year-old!

Very well done! I'm looking forward to the next one!
