I don’t have a picture but get this . Lol my first guitar was a yellow SG standard body with a mirror pick guard . Lol then it had one single coil pick up with a strat neck . I’ll find a picture. Some guy made it. The most insane guitar mongrel lol

My first was a Hondo single pickup bolt on LP copy. (good lord…)

 

[crwnedblasphemy]

Purplish star guitar from Sears. Looked like a Gus G jackson. That was the shape. Gold hardware. Bought it for $110. This was 1986.

Not mine, but exactly like it. Got it when I was 14 or 15. It was a plywood POS, and there's a nonzero chance that my dad found it at the curbside on garbage day. Didn't even have side markers on the fingerboard. Wiring was shitty and I was forever fixing it. Played it for a year or so and then was given an Epi SG for my 16th birthday and never looked back.

Def I don't have a Pic, but it was a cheap Washburn back in '82, 83 ish. Then it was a Charvel model 2 in black.

Bought a Sears single pickup guitar from a friend for 5 bucks. It was a tobacco sunburst I didn’t like so I hand sanded it and stained it brown. That was 82. Then I ”upgraded” to Yakima Les Paul copy.

No Pic but my "first guitar" was a red, rear routed, hardtail straty thing made by dixon.

That's the first one that was mine. Up to that point I played my dad's 78 epeiphone 12 string and his 64 fender duo sonic ii.

Translucent red Kramer Pacer, and still have it 40 years later.

That guitar is gorgeous. The local music store in my hometown had a translucent red Kramer Floyd Rose Signature model that a buddy of mine bought (Circa 1985?) Don’t know if he still has it.

fender musicmaster

[paulyc]

A Kent nylon string that belonged to my dad, red to black sunburst, with mile high action. You guys had it easy !!!

 

[GOHOINC]

First guitar I ever bought myself was a black epiphone les paul special ii 2nd for $139.

Yea I know... in 8th grade with a big 70's belt on I wasn't looking the part yet, but here's my 1st: A National Telecaster copy. Somebody replaced the neck pickup with a MightyMite that sounded twice as loud and way better than the dented up & rusty bridge pickup... so I removed the bridge pickup and would often do the toggle-switch on/off thing ala Ace Frehley.

 

[rottingcorpse]

1. Bass...Rick 4003 (1980)
2. Guitar... Cheap Rhodes copy outta Dimes closet(1984)

1987 Ibanez RG440P Roadstar II
I saved this catalog because I am always on the lookout for another one. This was the only guitar I had for 20 years.
