When most children express a desire to learn the guitar, they often imagine themselves playing extended solos in front of adoring fans. In truth, the best rock songs are almost always together by a solid rhythm guitar player – an unsung hero who provides the backbone for the song. Rhythm playing might not be as glamorous as the solo spot, but it’s a crucial part of any traditional rock song structure.
In between practicing with his electric childrens guitar, have your son sit down to listen to a few examples of quality rhythm playing. Start off with something obvious and heavy on riffs – maybe some early period Who. Pete Townshend was a competent enough solo player, but most critics would agree he was best known for laying down some great rhythms and allowing Roger Daltrey’s voice and Keith Moon’s drums to do the inventive stuff.

I am a single mother working hard to raise my two sons, (ages 11 and 14). My younger son, Christopher has Attention Deficit Disorder. Finding the time as well as the patience to work with him and parent him can be VERY trying, especially when we all lead such busy lives. It has been an ongoing challenge for years to find interests and hobbies that will not only occupy his time but also hold his attention.
After many attempts at hobbies such as: baseball, karate, and soccer, I FINALLY found the activity that not only holds my son’s attention but also provides skill and discipline while nurturing his own sense of creativity. I discovered his love of electric guitars. And not just any guitar but an electric guitar for kids! He LOVES it and now feels he has more in common with his rock star idols like the Jonas Brothers! I really believe in the importance of helping children harness their passion and feel that music is a wonderful outlet for our youngsters. As a single parent on a budget, I was able to find discount childrens guitars that are high quality and provide a good vehicle for learning to play music.
