The Birth of a Churango Prodigy

Written by MS4BCV

Anyone who knows Jim is aware of his incredible prowess on the guitar, but apparently this talent is limited to six-stringed instruments. In this clip, Pablo, a fifteen year old boy who is recovering from burns on his chest and arms, does his best to instruct Jim on the finer points of playing the Churango, a ten stringed instrument. While Jim gives it the old “med-school” try, it’s obvious that Pablo is the superior Churango player. Sorry Jim, the video doesn’t lie.
