I've noticed that, of local musicians I've played with, I'm the only one who doesn't do this religiously. Nonetheless, I have a Washburn Dime332 guitar that everybody's had a turn on, and her name's Charlotte. I refer you to Iron Maiden's early catalogue to figure out why on your own.

 

[Beginner Bass]

My bronze-ish Squier P-Special is named Talos.

Ya me too:

86 Ric - Das Rickenklanker
Olivo's - Olive Oils #13/#11 (By serial number)
Larivee Fretless - The De- Natured Boy (Bugs Bunny influence)
81 Dean ML - That damned pointy stick (poked one too many guitards, not necessarily a bad thing)
Fender Geddy Lee - Uh nothing yet, too new, any suggestions?
08 Gibson Brimstone Explorer - The Exploder
08 Gibson Brimstone V - just the V, ain't got anything better yet
And of course there's the Mesa 400+ all tube head, with Trace 4X10/1X15, simply referred to as THE BOOG. As in "Don't make me break out the boog" It's the amp that keeps the guitards in line
