Kurt Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 My Les Paul is called Paula and my J200 is The Blonde. The others don´t have names. Not very creative I´m afraid. But I´m sure you´ll get more and much better response here.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmiJAMM Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 People name their cars, boats, planes, etc. and many musicians throughout time have named their guitars. Oh and callen... read up. "When Eddie Van Halen made his debut into the rock music scene in 1978, he did so with a homemade guitar (later known as “Frankenstein”). At a time when his monster technique and tone demanded a high-performance, indestructible guitar, he created his own to reach his own seemingly impossible standards." Basically, when people out there make their own fanboy versions they're commonly referred to as "Frankenstrats." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marsha is my amp and two cabs...get it? H-Bomb PS...forgot "Agnus" (my Angus signature)...shame on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
