It's going really well.
the borrowed Bass got him started and we had loads of fun with Seven Nation Army and Another One Bites the Dust, he then started working out TNT. His first lesson went well but the teacher recommended we look out for a 3/4 size instrument.
So I just picked up a Squire Vintage Jaguar Short Scale and a 100W 1x15 HiWatt that was up for sale in Christchurch which seems absolutely perfect and the teacher was happy with it.
He's also impressed the teacher with how fast he's picking stuff up, no surprise given he can kind of play piano, can read basic music and has been in the Canterbury Representative Choir for the last few years (little bugger might have close to perfect pitch as well).
And they're already trying to start a band at school...
So 2 lessons in and we'll see how he gets on this term. Cross fingers.
In related news, this now means that I have 2 guitar amp setups, a bass setup and a drum kit in my man cave, and keyboard but no amp, so looks like I need to hunt down a cheap PA
