The first 100 hours or so after licence issue is the real danger zone in terms of over confidence and lack of experience. I'd be very careful, and if you have a passenger lined up book an aircraft for two hours, do an hour of circuits and then all being well take the passenger up later. Certainly don't rush into passengers on your first ever flight after licence issue and constantly watch your back and evaluate every flight to analyse any problems creeping in.

As above currency is better than total experience, but I feel this only really applies once you have 150-200+ hours.
