John Norum (52 famous players on their first guitars)
It's an article dated last year (2 July 2012), speaks of the first guitars in their youth from great guitarists like Slash, Joe Bonamassa, Phill Collen and of course the number 52 who is John Norum.
John says,
“I was 12 years old and my mom gave it to me. It was actually her guitar. I can’t remember the name of it, it was an acoustic. I didn’t have a plectrum, so I took a bottle opener and used that as a pick. I ripped that thing apart – all the finish was gone. I was quite aggressive… I was playing hard, even back then.”
