Μπράβο στον πατέρα σου που έβλεπε πολύ μπροστά. Χίλια μπράβο και σε εσένα που έκανες την κίνηση του να αξίζει!

I remember this guitar. I think it was 95-96, you came to our house and you were jamming with my brother (Dimitris with the yellow ibanez). Back then our small house in Papafi, was something like a jamming session room! I was mesmerized that a15-16 year old kid could play so well. Nice memories !

His dad made a great investment. Shout out to all the parents out there.

My first electric guitar was a 1983 BC Rich Bich I got new in 1983 when I was 13 years old. The color was ultra-violet which was a flip flop type pinkish purple lol. Had Kahler trem on it with DiMarzio Super Ds. Sadly I was playing a show at a club one night and it was stolen. Miss it so dearly. Glad you still have yours!

Ίσως από τις λίγες φορές που ένα παιδί αγοράζει μια ακριβή κιθάρα και του αξίζει! Κώστα πρεπει να περάσουμε μυνήματα στα νέα παιδια ότι και μια φτηνή δεν είναι κακή κιθάρα. Η αγαπη κάνει μια κιθάρα να έχει αξία, αλλιώς είναι έπιπλο.

@natanielespinoza1992 3 года назад

I still have my first electric guitar, a Azalea Stratocaster black since 2008 and still work it with D tuning. And my acoustic guitar Tenson since 2007 than my Dad bought me to play in my music class in the school.

@ant1738 3 года назад

Bravo Baba! Mine is a fender acoustic ..Now I have a Gud G. Jackson .. lol

@Alex-Saturn 3 года назад

Thanks for sharing, I absolutely love your playing!

@HCkev 2 года назад

I also had a floyd rose equipped guitar early on (although it wasn't my first guitar but my second one), I remember the first time I tuned it, I didn't know how it worked and messed up the whole tuning and didn't know how to get it back in tune 😂

@mcg5167 2 года назад

Awesome Dad you have. My first guitar was an import Strat copy that I bought at a local shop, along with a terrible circuit amp that had zero gain and distortion, all for $120.00. I saved my paper route money in 1983 to buy it.

@Ethersis 2 года назад

My first guitar was a KH2 from Grass Roots. Back then it was the low budget line from ESP. We had a small ESP Customshop in our town and my father went with me there and bought it for me. I was so happy! From this day I was addicted to guitar. P.S.: This guitar also had a licensed Floyd Rose on it and I learned to hate that system with time. Now any guitar I buy must have an Evertune! A real epiphany to me! *lol*

@saltpeter7429 Год назад

I have heard people who love, and people who hate, the evertune bridge. I am attracted to Solar guitars and noticed a number of them come with evertune's. Is it hard to restring them or something? I will try and find a video here on RU-vid about it.

@Ethersis Год назад

@@saltpeter7429 It´s not hard. It´s the same as a fixed bridge. Evertune is really simple and has just one downside. It has less sustain than a fixed bridge. For me it´s not a Problem. If you see the Videos on my channel you´ll see that I do not run out of sustain but you better know that before.

That was a great gift from your father. My first Electric Guitar back in the early 80’s was a very very cheap Les Paul Custom Copy. It was not a good quality. My second guitar was a Ibanez, this one was OK. I sold them a long time ago.

@thelightbringerofsweden Год назад

Im glad that you still have that guitar! the thing i regret most in my life is that i sold my first electric guitar, it was an old Levin Strat and it played so smooth and clean. So i think the phrase "young and stupid" fiths very well in why it's not here with me today. . /Lars

@sotis1982 3 года назад

I'm keeping my yamaha pacifica for my son. Hoping that one day he will love it like Gus G did with his!

That guitar sounds great! My first guitar was a white Stratocaster, I don’t have it anymore, sold it so I could get a Jackson Soloist that I still have.

@cobrocks 3 года назад

First guitar was an ESP LTD EX - 50 that i put a EMG 81 in the bridge, it was stolen, one day from my car. Its sister an M-100FM is still with me as my oldest but without pickups at the moment. Just scored an Edwards Alexi Pink Sawtooth that im getting his EMG put in, I have your Red LTD - 200 with Lace Alumitone Deathbucker and regular in, thinking about putting your signatures in at some point.

Geez. Your first guitar was cool ! Mine was a horrendous Squier starter pack where if I bent a string I'd see the tuning peg unwind.

@grandmastertymmx 3 года назад

I just found one exactly like that (Left handed though) that I fell in love with. Gonna pick it up soon.

@drewjsmalls Год назад

GUS I see why you treasure this Fender guitar so much, beautiful and the meaning behind it even better.( I LOVED TO HEAR YOU PLAYING FROM A PERSONAL LEVEL AGAIN).My first guitar was a Fender candy apple red Strat in 1975 (I THINK A LATE 60'S MODEL) when I was 15 years old.I was turned on to Black Sabbath that summer and some older guys started teaching me lots of Sabbaths riffs and songs and we played the old Sabbath cassettes in their cars at night cruising the small little summer town of North Carolina that I was in for the summer! THX for sharing!!!💯👀🔥🔥

@leonardofazzilani8329 3 года назад

My first guitar was an Eagle black strat, 3 single coils, 5 way switch, very standard... I've already sold it...

@stoubora 3 года назад

That's awesome, really cool to learn and see you play your first guitar. My first guitar was a Hohner Rockwood LX90L which is a strat copy budget guitar. A friend of mine had it and never played it so he just gave to me at 20 years old. It was such a gift as I always wanted to.learn to play. Once he gave it to me, I had to.learn... now at 37 I am grateful for that gift. I still play my original guitar sometimes and this year I plan to do some upgrades to the pickups and add a humbucker on the bridge as well as getting it professionally setup. Like you I will always keep my original first guitar!

@stevehoward210 2 года назад

@scottmatthews172 7 месяцев назад

Gus G. rules! 🤘 I wish I still had my first bass. I bought it back in 1988, it was a Kramer Aerostar ZX70, I couldn't afford a good bass amp, so I ended up getting a Gorilla TC 35 guitar amp. It was called The Tube Cruncher. I'm thinking about buying them both from Reverb next month. It was a great bass to learn with.

@michael4591 3 года назад

Cool Video Gus! Indeed a very good guitar for beginners. My first one was a Squier Strat for like 200 bugs back in 95. i sold it after two years to get a Jackson RR. I still own that Jackson and never tried any other brands since hahaha

@user-sn3cs2hd8r 2 года назад

Gus as you get older you come to appreciate how much and how fortunate we were to have parents that made so many sacrifices for us. God please - I really hope your dad is still with us and can see your success

@firetv 2 года назад

So true. And yes, Papa G is alive and well and very proud. As I am of him

@billnicholas1 Год назад

Awesome guitar Gus, I love it! My first guitar was a 1981 Gibson Les Paul Custom (Tobacco Sunburst) and I still have it. I've been collecting guitars more recently but the first one always will be special to me. Keep rockin' Gus, you are awesome!

@18gnpg33 3 года назад

In 2007 I was playing drums in a wedding band where your dad was singing, that's how I heard about Firewind. At first I thought he was just kidding when he said that his son was a world class guitarist. Then he brought me a Firewind CD...

@williamfoster1034 3 года назад

Gus, you are my idol. I have even started vacationing in Greece (not this past year) because of you and I plan to move from the USA to the south side of Athens in a few years. Black straws only with the frappes because of you. Rock on, brother!!!

@jamesryder9158 3 года назад

that was amazing! so cool of you to share those memories with us, man! wow! when you play that guitar its you 15 years old all over again! I wish I would have never gotten rid of my first guitar, it was a G&L legacy, I got it for a 100 dollars and got rid of it for a low end Jackson dinky reverse just because I wanted to be cool like megadeth and I had to have a Jackson because that's what Dave and Marty played lol! that's how 15 year old kids think sometimes lol! thanks for the memories Gus, Your Dad is super cool, I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

@RahduDrahkqul75 3 года назад

My first Guitar was a 1970's Giannini steel string Acoustic. My second Guitar was my First electric. A black Charvel 100 model super Strat with the dual humbucker EMG's, with the Fender style tremelo and the reverse pointy Headstock. For amplification I bought a used Create 200w dual channel combo amp.

@davidbloom2373 2 года назад

I love your new jackson sd1 guitar

@vincentdomingues7904 3 года назад

yah, I still have my first guitar. A 2003 Japanese Jackson Dinky. Bought more guitars over the years, but doesn't fall behind any of them. Learnt everything with her, from playing to set ups. Had the whole thing teared apart and modified by myself. Still rock solid.

@PucaDuca13 3 года назад

My first guitar was 100 euro and came with a book, a tuner, an amp, plecks, strap and music stand so it wasn't the greatest guitar! It was a strat shape in black called an SX traditional hand made... I swapped it for a pedal a couple of years later when I got me second guitar an ltd ex 50! I love that guitar to this day! Bought it in 2004!

Awesome video. I'm catching up on your channel so I just saw this today. My first guitar was a black 1994 Fender USA Strat. Just single coils. I still have it but don't play it much. I will never sell this. Why? Because like you said too many great memories. I gigged with this guitar and played lots of SRV and Hendrix. I actually used it for a Halloween costume and went as Jimi Hendrix with a mini amp. I was performing all night. Crazy fun. If I only had pics and videos.

@jamesryder9158 3 года назад

Awesome! my first guitar friend had a squier strat! he taught me some of my first riffs, lots of Iron maiden and some classics like led zeppelin and Kansas, 1987 or so, around the time of Iron Maiden's no prayer for the dying, great album, great memories, kids learning guitar finding other kids who play guitar and just being young and enjoying great music, wow!

@tommypedersen8463 3 года назад

Thanks for the storry. My first guitar was a elektric washburn, also with a Floyd rose system. I couldent play it at home, my dad did not like my playing, lol. So the guitar was at a frinds house, and then somebody set his home on fire.
