We often think about senior citizens as being those who are retired to the front porch, rocking in a rocking chair, and watching the world go by. Obviously, they haven’t met this Tennessee guitarist.

Bob Wood is a musician that is well worth considering and when you see what he is able to do with the guitar, you are not going to believe it. It isn’t just the fact that he can play the guitar like nobody’s business, it’s his age that has many people talking.

A video was posted on YouTube that went viral and received more than 10 million views, and it is still growing. It happened when Bob Wood walked into a guitar shop at the age of 80 and did what he did best.

It happened at the British Audio Service music store in Nashville Tennessee when the father of nine was picking up amplifiers that were being repaired. He said: “When they told me they were ready, I took the guitar to check them out.”

We are absolutely thrilled that he did. There he stood in the middle of the store, playing the guitar and showing everybody that age is just a number.

As his fingers flew across the strings and the sound coming out of the guitar just kept getting better and better, we couldn’t help but be amazed at what he was able to do. Obviously, he knew what he was doing and it gave him the opportunity for even more videos.

You can see him playing in the store for yourself right here:
