The Rolling Stones' Ronnie Wood has revealed that Niall Horan's schedule is too busy at the moment for guitar lessons.

The legendary axeman told the One Direction singer that he could have lessons with him for his birthday in September.

However, it seems the Irishman has been too busy with his band - who have just released their new album 'Midnight Memories' - to accept Wood's offer.

The Stones man told Bang Showbiz: "I know, he's worse than I am...He's always out on the road."

However, the offer still stands if Horan - who plays guitar on tour with One Direction - is still keen. Wood added:

"Oh yeah, I'll definitely do it."

Horan, along with bandmate Harry Styles, met Wood whilst the Rolling Stones were on tour in the US earlier this year.
