Got my first electric in 1964, played it almost exclusively until requisite concert volume levels exceeded OSHA/NIMH standards a few years later; went totally acoustic for the next 15 years (probably saved my hearing as a result), gradually got back into electric as I was doing hired-gun work for a few praise-&-worship teams over the last two decades or so. Truth be told, I'm playing about 85-90% electric lately - only use acoustic for classroom work and open mics...
