I was gunna say, a broken in boar vs new would certainly aid his initial intro. I’d say let him learn on a boar, and buy his own synth later if he wants. If you teach him how to use the boat, he’ll have no issues with a synth later.
I also agree with limiting the blade options early. The Astras should be just fine. I went through low end blade samplers when I started and never liked any of them, once I knew what “good enough” was. Get him comfortably confident with the Astras then let him play with and discover what he likes would be my course of action choice.
