Now this is sooooooooooo cool.
Love seeing people like this!


桜花です。小学5年生の11歳です。 RATTのウォーレンさんからの宿題!その2・Lay It Downを 弾いてみました。 音作りがとても難しくて、マーシャルJCM2000とBOSSのME-5を 使ったよ。Voコントロール、ピッキングでのトーンニュアンスに 注意しました。ギターはフェンダージャパンのEシリアル時代の ストラトをカスタムしました。 初めの写真は、ウォーレンさんと私とジェイクEリーさんだよ。

(Cause I've always wanted some cool looking 'Michael Angelo Batio - hands without shadows - font in the forum)

Nope! Can't do it! 30 years of struggle to see some kid rip through this stuff and then 7 year olds doing Yngwie tunes, does my head in!


Talented little buggers! I yield to their greatness!

@shramiac It is infuriating, isn't it? LOL

There is almost like this evolutionary leap that the younger generation has made when it comes to music. It just comes so natural for them.

My friend's son got into music and wanted to play and start a band. Death Metal, totally not my thing. But within a couple of months, his son was playing drums like Richard Christy and wailing away on the guitar like a virtuoso.

The most difficult for me, is not that that little girl plays much better than me, it is that she has the killer guitars she does. Something just not right about an 11 year old having better guitars than me. LOL

Those stretches in the intro with the pinky finger are brutal for this 53 year old (Main Riff)

And she has little tiny hands and plays it with no problem

This illustrates the difference between someone with true talent versus a hack LOL :-)

Just watched it a second time and she is really awesome and the solo was pretty much spot on

Elastic tendons at such a young age! It has to be?
