I was thinking of getting him an electric guitar for X-Mas. Any ideas? How about the Ibanez Mikro? -Kizaze You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

But, if you plan to be a surprise, I advise against it. You can do it, but leave the option of replacing the guitar. I think best would be to go into store and let him choose what suits him. It should be relatively light and comfortable for playing. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
