TL;DR Summary

Wolfgang Van Halen, son of legendary guitarist Eddie Van Halen, revealed in a recent interview that he taught himself how to play the guitar, despite assumptions that his father had taught him. While Eddie taught him drums, Wolfgang learned guitar by himself, using guitar tabs and learning songs by his favorite bands. He emphasized the importance of developing his own style rather than being a copy of his father. Wolfgang's self-taught skills eventually led him to join Van Halen as their bassist in 2007.
