They all assume a personality and get named...
Orange Jazz 5 dlx is Clementine
Elrick Classic 5 is Rufus
Black Fender Dimension 5 is Cleatus
Fretless white Steinberger Synapse is The Borg
and my Dingwall SJ5 (still many months away from birth) in supersonic blue will be Raoul.......I think......
 
Vindy, what model is woody?

My Fender (QMT) is called Chocolate because it kind of looks like one.

My Yamaha BB404 is called Fred. Because it's fretless, apparently. Hey, I didn't name it.

My Kay double bass is called Popeye because it's huge and there was a ban on spinach so it was all over the news when I picked it up.

I also named my friend Fil's violin. It's a Zeta Boyd Tinsley black model, and it's called Manolo.
