My first was a busted handmedown classical that had 3 non consecutive strings. It was rubbish, but I was 12 and had no idea. After playing on that for a few years, my Dad decided it was time I got something a bit more functional. Unfortunately that was a 'Falcon' brand stratocaster copy. This thing popped strings like a champ (I was used to 3, so 4 or 5 strings was an improvement), wouldn't stay in tune for more than two strums and had about 2cm action on the high frets. I blame that guitar for my hatred of red and white strats, well strats in general.
