I never named mine, but I did put jewelry on one.

I was walking through a K-mart parking lot one day, and laying on the ground was a 24k Gold link bracelet.

I put it above the nut under the strings.

Looked really nice on my black Strat.

I have a Taylor 714ce named "speck" because almost as soon as I bought it I accidentally flung a guitar cable into it causing the tiniest, but noticeable, ding in the finish just below the very center of the bridge...almost like it belongs there. A perfect little circle of "wabi" as the Chinese say. I too name all my instruments...and vehicles for that matter. So I guess I'm crazy as a peach orchard boar as well.

I've done that to three guitars (so far) but I've noticed it doesn't happen on the cheaper ones...  My nice, emerald green Les Paul Double Cut, a Gibson Korina V and, unfortunately, my custom guitar (called "The Raspberry Twist" due to the color and the fact that it has Variax guts hidden inside).  *Sigh*
 
Here she is!
 

Maggie's pretty sexy, Bill.
That Raspberry Twist is pretty hot, too.
I don't name mine, but I do refer to them as "She".
My longtime favorite, a '78 Ibanez. I bought her new, love at first sight. She's been a good friend, and I can always count on her.

OOooo...raspberry twist...yum!!!

I must admit I'm guilty of feeding mine table scraps sometimes. I know you're not supposed to.

Is that how you get a fat tone out of her?

Plenty of crunch, yes. 

Hi,

No Lucille?

I have a bazz called Bapu. It has a name tag and everthing.

 Nice guitars Craigb.....I'm just curious, how does one determine the "sex" of a guitar when naming it?
