What your guitar's name.

[BigE]

I know I'm not the only one who names there guitars. I name them all. My
T-hollow name is Mr. Dave. Inside joke I have with my uncle Dave. So when he gave me this guitar for my birthday I automatically name it Mr. Dave. Not many people give someone such a nice gift. Other guitars I've named, Fluffy, Chloe, and Marty. I have also had 3 Elisabeth Rose's I, II and III.

The only one I have a name for (that I use regularly) is a guitar I built from wood that floated around in my studio when it flooded during huricane Isabel. I mostly just call her Izzy. She has a hollow Koa body that came from an unfinished jazz bass body I aquired on a trade for studio time. The maple top wood was given to me by a friend who builds furniture. The shape of the body was somewhat dictated by starting off as a jazz bass. The top is stained transparent blue with binding (TAG style) and has a little tiger stripe going on. The back is really nicer. One half looks quilt, and the other half looks burl. Nothing matches, but it looks somewhat cool and confused. It came out OK being as it came from scrap box parts.

Could you post a Picture, It sounds kind of cool.

I know there are instructions somewhere on how to post pictures here. I do have a few pictures of the finished guitar and a bunch of in progress shots.

Posting Photos - Step by Step Instructions:

Open a Photobucket.com account. It is free. Upload your photos to that site. Nice thing is you can upload multiple photos at a time.

Once the photos are there, you will have created an "album." You can create multiple albums if you want.

In the album will be your photos. You can rename them, put descriptions on them, etc.

Once you have completed this process open a second Internet window or tab and go the the Anderson, (or pretty much any other forum), post where you want to imbed your photo.

Switch back to the Photobucket window. Below each photo are several links. Right click on the link marked, "IMG code" and copy.

Then go to the forum post, click the spot where you want to imbed your photo, Right Click (PC), or Control-Click or double tap (Mac), then click "paste." (One note: Make sure your pics in Photobucket are a reasonable size, or when you post them to a web forum they will appear HUGE.)

You will get a code that starts and ends with [IMG].

Go to the bottom of the post and click Submit or Preview.

That is it!

With a headstock and body color like this, you have to name it "JimiThing":)

I have two Andersons. I suppose they should obviously be named "Tommy" and "Andy", but I don't name "things"... Except... my younger dog has an imaginary friend, that we've named Fezziwig after a dog we used to have.

yes... I actually named my dog's imaginary friend...

yes... I probably DO need therapy...

Here are a few construction pictures. I didn't realize that I have no pictures of the finished guitar. Guess I have to get on that.
