This video is from last year, but it's making the rounds now.  A nine-year-old bass prodigy named Ellen Alaverdyan absolutely kills Rush's "Tom Sawyer".

Sure, it sounds easy at first, but keep listening as the song progresses.  She nails it.

Chuck the Freak has a wide assortment of hobbies and things to keep him busy. When he is not ruling over his ant empires, cleaning his aquariums, trying to make contact with extraterrestrial life or polishing rocks he also enjoys playing (trying to play) guitar!

Chuck owns a few guitars, but if he had unlimited funds these are the guitars he would LOVE to own! Here are Chuck the Freak's Top 5 Dream Guitars!

Martin Persner Gibson Rd Black and Tan Sunburst

One of the original nameless ghouls in ghost. Still plays this guitar in his original band Magna Carta Cartel.

David Gilmore Fender “Black Strat”

The man who plays the solos with the most feeling ever. Iconic all black Fender Stratocaster.

Slash Goldtop Gibson Les Paul

No one. And I mean no one looks cooler playing guitar than Slash. Goldtop was perfection and Gibson guitars owes a lot to slash for revitalizing the brand.

The Edge Gibson 1976 Explorer

The guitar that has been there from the start of U2. It’s even survived a broken neck repair. Gave the Edge a distinctive look and sound from the start.

Jimmy Page “Number One” 1959 Gibson Les Paul

Jimmy Page purchased this from Joe Walsh. It was used in every Led Zeppelin live show and on ever record they made. Priceless.
