This 8 year old girl can play some mean guitar... I think the piece is from Trans-Siberian Orchestra? Not sure... worth a listen, though.

Nope... I gives up I does... SMF is not ready for prime time I guess.... ::)
Never mind, Bob - good try. She looks lovely, but seems to need longer fingers yet.

Yeah..... but she's only 8. She has plenty of growing still to do.
:)
And of course there are meachnical finger extensions
She is playing with the track which covers the mistakes, but she does the digitation properly. At first I thought it was just a simple pattern because the piece starts that way but later she proves that it is more than the (relatively) easi(er) first bars. Kudos!

Thank you for that-- I was rather hoping an actual expert guitar player would watch and say something.
I was beginning to wonder if it was faked-up, aka Milli Vanilli...
:)
That was awesome. I hope she keeps it up over her teenage years, and becomes a virtuoso guitarist of the future. If I ever have children, they will all learn to play like this. Or else! ;D
