How do you call your bass?

[Fassa Albrecht]

My Shergold has a name, Petra, and my Yamaha is called Bernard (coming from a joke I have about New Order's singer never staying in tune, and my bass detuning every 30 seconds).

 

[Lalabadie]

I call my acoustic bass Miss Piggie because of its size. And because it's a Dean Playmate.

 

[Bob Lee (QSC)]

I just whistle and it comes running.

 

[BlackLake]

I pick up the phone and call

1-800-555-BASS (2277)

A guy I used to jam with could never say "schecter" so mine is now endearingly referred to as "SKEKTOR" in his honor.

 

[SpankyPants]

I call mine my PIECE OF TRASH.

I know, it's a workhorse, does what I need it to do, stays in tune, never gives me problems on stage. But boy I'd like a little more luxury.

Dude! I FEEL you on this one!

I call mine Brutus for the same reason. It's a real beater, but man it's been one resilient monster.
