my first electric was a 1977 LP Deluxe that I got new in 77 (my dad was cool, a Les Paul for my 5th B-day), it's been trashed since but it was a nice guitar at one time, but the 80's were bad to it (modded to fullsize humbuckers and a floyd rose).

My very first guitar was an acoustic of some sort given to me in 1974 (I was 2 so it didn't last long), I didn't really get serious about my gear until the early 80's, and now I am just chasing vintage tones.

At one time I had 11 Les Pauls, 2 Explorers, and a Strat. The need to eat and the end of gigging forced me to downsize, I have 1 Les Paul and a Strat now.
