Willkommen, Ben - nice to have you!
I think it was a great decision to swap motorbike racing for guitar playing! You’ll notice when you get older!
When your kid will be there, I recommend having a Ukulele lying around, it’s easy to learn for guitarists and your kid could grab (a not so expensive one) it without you fearing about your favourite guitar.But well, if you do so, be warned that lots of cheap Ukes don’t have a good intonation - I had to fix quite a few for me and friends…
WIshing you lots of fun in guitarland,
Dominique in Berlin
