Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

My 1998PT is imaginatively named "Pete" and my 330 is called "Ricky".

Guess I can add my cats then....."Oops" our 14 year old female and recently departed after 18 years "Spooky and Ducati". None of them had a Rickenbacker but they did have lovely voices . Oops had peed on my sons basses because they are Not RICs ! No name yet for my FG4004Cii 4-2-5 . Hmmm....maybe call it Rath !

Named my 360-12 FG "Mary Jane", after Peter Parker's girlfriend with red hair, and as a tribute to the Tom Petty song.

Meet Dented.
This was given to me and it arrived this way. I didn't hit it with a hammer.

All of my guitars have female names:

'97 325V59 - Julia
'06 330DCM - Annie
'03 650S - Sierra (what else?)
'64 Hofner 500/1 - Eleanor
'61 Les Paul SG - Guinnevere
'85 Yamaha 12 string acoustic - Octavia

I photographed these guitars unrelated to this thread, but they are the only ones with names:
Blackie, Lucy, and Ric (go figure). All do their namesakes justice, and all have a permanent home - love 'em...

Like Ric36, I have a black American Strat w/maple fretboard dubbed "Blackie." That was my first decent electric guitar, and the only one of my collection that I have named.

650c Turquoise - "Jade"
660 BBR - "Jewel" (because of the color and a beauty mark)
I haven't named the other siblings yet but will soon.

This question is a little bit "full metal jacket"...

my 360 is "Lucy"
my Gibson SG is "Sibyl Vane"

Same here. I'm not a fan of the obvious names, so until I'm significantly inspired, they'll keep their definite articles and given indentifiers ("the Tele, the 330, the Strat copy", etc.)

I've named them all. Here are the three latest. Amber, Delilah and Tea'
