I had a student for two years. Her name was Amanda. I taught her theory and She is an amazing guitarist.I taught her 3 different tunings and She learned them. I'm not an Yngwie fan, But I taught her some stuff. I taught her to play "The star spangled banner" in D and A and She LEARNED them and can now play everything she knows in any key, any tuning. She practises VERY hrd and I'm very proud of her. By the way, Amanda is 16.

Girls can play just as well if not better than guys.
