Haha, I started off with one of those high action acoustics too when I was about 8 years old. Man as a kid it i couldnt play the first few frets, fingers too weak hahaha. My cousing won it in a local bueaty pageant and gave it to my father since he was a musician in his young days. He ended up giving it back on her wedding day many years later.
But my real "first" I got about 20 years back aged 10 or 11, was a cheapo black Cort Strat with ryan amp I got after some months of nagging to my father, he lay-by'd it from cash crusaders. Still have it ?
I miss that acoustic though. The frustration of having to use g-clamps to press down the strings to play. Good times ?
