I have always named my guitars. My first guitar was given to me from my dad before he went to prison in 1988'. I named her *Sweet Pea* My 2nd guitar was a B.C Rich Bich so rightly so.. I named her *B!tch* my third guitar was another B.C. Rich and named her *Wanda* because the change of the pickups made her whine, scream and cry. My final guitar a Gibson ES-355 I named her *Gabby* because this is the guitar that set me apart from all my friends who continue to play metal. With Gabby I began to change my style to blues and play with more soulful meaning, Gabby gave a look into my soul, and Gabby is short for my daughter's middle name Gabriella, who gives me something to live for each day
