James Bell - he's 13 years old. I wish I would have had those skills at his age.

The kid can play, but guitarist of the year? I'm having a real problem with this.

I think they said at the end that he's the young guitarist of the year. I'm not familiar enough with the award to know how they divvy them out, but I imagine that's the distinction you're looking for.

OK, that I can see! The boy plays well indeed.

See what he is playing. It is a Vintage Guitars VS6 Reissue Series. They are from England. That guitar only costs about 239 British pounds. Made in Korea or China and imported by JH Skewes company. They make some really nice guitars, for a reasonable price. They all come with Wilkinson hardware and pickups.

Anybody smell gas?

Naw Spud I already have enough SGs. I do have a Vintage Icon Gold Top though. P90s and it needed a fret level out of the box, but now it plays as good as any guitar I own. I picked out the headstock on the video.
