Is the kid 13 or is he 8? It says on the title he’s 13 but in the video it says he’s 8. Really good for an 8 year old…but still needs work.

As it turns out CJ, the boy in the video was 13 at the time and not 8 as is said in the video. It takes talent to play like this but as you can see by the comments it is debatable how much.

that was awesome. I don’t think there is too many kids his age who could even play the guitar half as good as he did there.
