I would want to try to get my brother into playing guitar.

He want to learn to play but he looses his interest after maybe 15-30 minutes. And he's an absolute newbie at instruments.

So what should I do to keep him interested?

Start out with some songs and stuff like that?

I already taught him the intro to Iron Man and he seemed happy when he could pull it off by himself, on 1 string smile.gif

And well yeah as I said, he wants to learn but he looses his interest very fast and says things like "I'm to bad"

Any help appreciated smile.gif
