Jake Rigden, from Maidstone, UK has the heart and soul of a great blues guitarist. You can hear it in his playing, without a doubt. The feeling just comes through. He is only 14.
I can tell that he is going to do great things. Here is his bio from Youtube:
I have been playing the guitar for about four years, I started wanting to play like Kirk Hammett and Angus Young but soon found Lowell George and Little Feat and that was my way into playing blues. I passed my grade three when I was eleven and my grade five at twelve and passed my grade seven in December 09.
I think I’m on the way to having my own sound and style and one day hope to write my own stuff. I have been having singing lessons but you wont hear that until I think Im ready

If learning how to play the acoustic guitar tops your bucket list, it may be time to enroll yourself in acoustic guitar lessons. While you may have the guitar on hand and the sheet music to play, having everything you need does not mean anything unless you learn the essential skills necessary to read sheet music and play the guitar.
