    Do you name your instrument? What do you call it (or him? her?)?

    My guitar looks like this:

    I've had it for 3 years, and I like it a lot, but I still haven't named it. What sort of name would suit it?

    Hmm, you really got to listen to your guitar dude no one can name your guitar for you, but either way dude its your baby and your girl so you have to name her. My guitar's name is Crystal because there is this awesome rossette around the sound hole that sorta looks like lil bits of crystal. I used to know a girl name Crystal. And the sound of it just sounds like unqiue sorta like crystal. (and no i don't do meth!)

    But dude just play your guitar and your guitar talks to you, find a name that fits the feeling when you play her, or what she looks like. but make sure its something that appeals to you.
