    I have an Silver Cadet / Ibanez acoustic I call Dean (after "on the road"), a Yamaha F310 acoustic with no name (it is not really mine, it is my brothers', but he doesn't play it so ...) and a red squier strat called Arth
    I don't want to hear from those who know

    cool thread from way back when..

    there are some really cool names here...

    i never named my guitars. i have too many guitars (11) and have not been creative enough to name them. to me they are tools and i have abused them over the years. gigging and alcohol has not been that kind to them. to me naming them gives them some sort of personality and i could not imagine calling one of them the name of someone i love and then scuffing them up or abusing them somehow...

    maybe i'm just weird that way...

    actually i take that back, i have a '67 black strat that i inherited that is all beat up like clapton's "blackie" so i call it "blackie"...real original huh?? :lol::lol:

    nothing wrong with "Blackie", it's kind of classic.
    I found the thread while trying to get inspiration for naming my new one.

    My Squier Tele Custom II is Alicia. My Fender Tim Armstrong acoustic/electric is Hunny. I have an SG copy also, but it doesn't have a name.

    I'll be building a Firebird soon. I should start thinking about the name now....
