Members SamRussell Posted September 7, 2013 Members Share Posted September 7, 2013 This thread reminds me of the movie Crossroads xD I never named a guitar though, but they do have a slightly femine identity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kayd_mon Posted September 7, 2013 Members Share Posted September 7, 2013 My first Strat had more treble bite than my friend's guitar, and I had this cheap Gorilla amp that had absolutely no low end. My friend would call my guitar "King Treble" and eventually KT for short. So I suppose you could say that guitar's name was "Katy" since that's what we called it. I have built two partscasters, and I named them Mach One and Mach Two. I sold Mach Two, though. The next partscaster I put together will be Mach Three, I guess. Those are the only "named" ones I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members silvershot Posted February 22, 2014 Members Share Posted February 22, 2014 So far I have only named my dogs and my kids. Actually I thought about naming my guitars but in the end that seemed forced so now they don't have names but they all have stories about how they came to live with me.

Exactly, and just to spell it out, Black Frances, because your Les Paul is black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chordite Posted February 25, 2014 Members Share Posted February 25, 2014 I'm sure there are people out there who name their cutlery, I'm not one of them. Since I only have one of each the guitars are called by their proper names, The Westone, The Hondo or The Yamaha. etc' I did toy with calling the Fender Leo and the LP Les but I thought naming was a bit sad and gave the idea up before habit set in. However if Orianthi asked me to come over and help her name her PRS I would be enthusiastic and give it my best creative shot, could take a long dinner though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BydoEmpire Posted February 26, 2014 Members Share Posted February 26, 2014 >> I'm a bit surprised that someone hasn't already wandered in and said something like "Guitars are just wood and wire they're just tools. Would I name my hammer?" That reply actually did come up on The Gear Page for this same thread. I didn't for a long time... it was always "the LP" or "the Tele" or "the 57 strat." A few months ago I decided to have some fun and out of the blue named my guitars after women in Buffy the Vampire Slayer (because I watched the whole series on Netflix all the way through). Dawn (my Suhr), Anya (my LP) and Willow (my Carvin). Bass is not named. Silly and corny, but it makes me smile. Not sure how long it'll stick before I go back to "the Les Paul" ...

Members Ebony Posted March 1, 2014 Members Share Posted March 1, 2014 Hi I'm a young guy but I think that naming your guitar gives it character so I wanted to know, how does Darlene sound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Pine Apple Slim Posted March 1, 2014 Members Share Posted March 1, 2014 IMO naming a guitar is only legit if: a)You name it after a woman you got cut over in a barfight. b) It made you famous. Otherwise its kinda lame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members StormSurge5420 Posted June 12, 2014 Members Share Posted June 12, 2014 I know you said not to give a guitar a male name but mine is a Sunburst colored electric Ibanez and a female name just doesn't fit. Could I name him Apollo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
