How old were you when you first picked up the instrument and when did you get really serious about it?

I got my first guitar when I was ten. I grew up listening to my mom playing organ in the house. So I was really into music before I got a guitar.

I got serious about playing guitar once I heard Eddie Van Halen who was my inspiration at the time.
