Buying Your Child's First Guitar? This Might Help

After a couple of months of playing my guitars, my son finally asked to buy his own...
Dan here, hello and welcome to my vlog!
I was really happy when my son, Zac, started showing an interest in playing guitar. As you can imagine, I have a nice guitar or two kicking around the house that he can play, but Zac had reached a point where he wanted his own.
What I quickly discovered is that there were a few things I needed to keep in mind during the search, not least of which was: "This is a guitar for my son, not for me!".
So if you're looking to buying your child's first instrument, I made this video to suggest a few things that might come in handy. Enjoy the video!
