Pet-names for you gear?

[dead_flyboy]

Does anyone here name each guitar/amp they own? or am I the only one?

If you do, list what it is and what it's called.

Mine are:
BC Rich Zombie Bass - "Lord Bub"
Vintage Wraith - "Grimlock"
Washburn xb-125 - "Gringo"
Yamaha RBX 175 - "Blue Midget"
Peavey Tour 700 - "Lord Humungus"

Am I strange?

I don't do this, but I teach middle school orchestra and I discovered that every songle kid in my class has given a name to their instruments - I really enjoy finding them out!

[Gus Borden]

There has never been an actual name for a bass that I can recall - but with all of my basses but they are always a pronoun: "She", "Her", etc.
My current gigging amp (whichever it may be at that time) is always simply "The Rig" after the honeymoon ends.

I've never named an amp, or my acoustics. However my electrics, both guitar and bass, all have names.
