Default Surprised my son with one of my guitars.

So my son doesn't live with me and he graduates high school tomorrow so I flew to Chicago from Hawaii and brought one of my babies with me to give it to him. It's a Sterling by Music Man JP70. He has never played a 7 string before so I thought it would something cool for him. Here's the reaction video.

Thanks everyone! He's having a blast with that thing. He's in the autism spectrum so playing guitar has been huge for him. He has a lot of natural talent but he lacks the focus to stick to it. I'm super proud of him.

That's what life is about. He is clearly thrilled with it.
