I'm not to worried about the capacitor either... If I had a bumblebee capacitor I'd gladly give it to you if you thought it was something special.

You spelled 'to' wrong Mic.

Just thought I'd point that out.

Turning the knobs and tweaking them are two different things...

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

It was easy with my beautiful 'Spacey' masterpiece
 
 
I reckon it's pretty obvious that anything as gorgeous as my RUBY just has to be a lady
 
 
 

 
 
 
 

 Very nice....yes I can see why this would be a lady. Did Spacey build this one? Never mind I see he did...nice. Love the Seymour Duncans too. Craig that's a nice variax you have there.....I need to do something with mine it looks way to vanilla.


 Hey this is a great fred......If I name the next one after my wife I'll bet that's worth a few points...maybe even another guitar!!!!

Its the string gauge combined with the pickup magnets and the winding characteristics that make the differences I appreciate and listen for.

Wow, I am just the opposite. I always play a guitar unplugged before I buy it... so I can hear the wood and the resonance. Though sometimes, it is the beauty of the guitar that gets me, sometime one will seem to call from the wall, like "love at first sight"... if there are several I will still get the one that sound's best unplugged.

None of my guitars or basses will tell me their names! 

But I don't feel too hurt, 'cause it means I don't have to remember them and I can just use descriptive names instead. Serves them right!

Same here. I'll only plug it in at the very last minute for a quick check, but at that point my mind is pretty much made up.


And yes, they all have names.
