Most of us give our guitars a name apart from the brand or the model of them. So, out of curiosity, whats yours?

My favorite guitars name is Laura Anne, named after my best friend in high school

I just call them what they are. Every time I try to name them, I forget the names the next day.

My Tele is named 'Hot Rod' because it's black and chrome, but most of my guitars don't get names. Oh and the acoustic I sold a couple days ago, I called Carmen...lol...long story.

I refer to mine collectively as my babies but I call my Epi Casino John and my Gretsch Tennessean George for obvious reasons.

I don't have names and I don't call them "she's". They are pretty much my tools, like my cameras, lenses and other gear. I'm still sentimentally attached to some of them though. :wink:

Mass. (Massachusetts) Street Music in Lawrence, KS will name all of their guitars when they stock them on the walls. My black strat was named "Neil", my red tele is "Ginger Vitis" and my 52 tele is "Rex"

i will attempt to retain my dignity and say that if it was not for the techs down as mass st music, my guitars would remain nameless til this day.

I have been brain storming so much to come up with a nick name for my guitars, but I just haven't found one that fits.

they will remain nameless I guess

You can have some of the names I passed on: Helga, Prudence, Gertrude, Matilda, Hortense.

Or if it is male, you could name it Gordon. 60 percent of all men in Canada are named Gordon. Fact!

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:


nice! Gordon eh... I'll think about it ;)
I like Prudence as I am a huge Beatles/Lennon fan

got any other suggestions for a black w/ rw neck?
