That's cool. When I took lessons I was disappointed by the lack of technical instruction. Basically all I learned in terms of theory were how to read notes and rhythms, so when I started getting into jazz I didn't know any of the scales or chords to improvise with. And the only thing about learning guitar next is it's so many strings! I dabble in ukulele and mandola (alto mandolin), so 6 strings just seems like craziness. That's why I'm inclined to go for bass next. But yeah, I'm really glad I got into this young. I've been drumming for just over a year and a half, but it still feels like forever. Kinda blows my mind to think I can keep playing music for the rest of my life :)
