First guitar of mine was ESP-LTD Viper-100. It was good instrument, although the G-string stayed in tune approximately five minutes if it was bended. I sold it about a year ago for 200 euros mainly because I don't like 24,75" scale.

I bought myself an Ibanez EX370 FMTB in '92, pretty axe, great sound with DiMarzio Al di Meola pickups, and very comfortable. I got it till last year. I'll never miss it though, Japanese Ibbys and Jacksons are better guitars for a similar price.

My first seven was a DeArmond Seven Star (bought back in late 2000). My first guitar period was an 87 Ibanez Roadstar I bought in a pawn shop for $100.

Fender Squire! (far right in the pic) It's been through so much stupid shit it's ridiculous--crappy paint jobs that pretty much destroyed the guitar, but now it's at a natural finish with new electronics where it will be from now on.

First 7 - 7620vk. I miss the guitar, but unfortunately sold it because I had no clue what I was doing with it--the 7-strings and bridge was just too much for me back then. I regret that to this day :( BUUUTTT!!! I have a 7620 again, and <3 it to death, along with my new S7420qm.

At first I though this was about a different topic all together. Thankfully, it is much less creepy than I initially though...I can also participate in this version.

Mine was a Burst Dean of some sort. Possibly an Avalanche model? I believe it was H-S-S with a rosewood board. Come to think of it, in my first three years of playing I switched guitars 6 or 7 times. It was a MIA Fender that made me honest.

I got my first 2 guitars at the same time at age 3. My dad got new gear and gave me this red ES-335 copy with holes in it and a vantage les paul that was covered in old stickers. Neither played great and I think they left my hands as soon as I had the ability to get new instruments. Do not regret it.

Mine was an Ibanez GAX70, it felt alright but the intonation was terrible and it sounded pretty awful but it got the job done. First seven (its also my only guitar right now) was/is an LTD MH-417. I love it to pieces, and it sound amazing.

My first was a yamaha se150 that one of my dad's friends ended up leaving at the house. After who-knows-how-many years, I've basically claimed it and used it to learn to play and do setups. Sadly, after years of neglect, it needs more work than I can give it, since the saddles have corroded to the point of being largely nonadjustable.
Still, it's a pretty nice sounding and playing guitar, even though the neck is a bit thick and it only has a single pickup.
