I've got a question: Why do people name their instruments? I don't imply that's bad, just curious.

 

?And to keep on topic another question. Did the Beatles give a name to their instruments?

 

I've had the same instruments for quite a while now – and I've never named any of them. I think I called my off white Strat "Whitey" for a while, then I decided it was in bad taste. Haha. a-hard-days-night-ringo-14

I recently bought George Harrison's old Moog, the one used on "Abbey Road" and "Electronic Sound", and was signed by all four Beatles, and had my manservant fly to England to see it delivered safely back to me. Also I recently won the lottery! Also, I'm a terrific liar.

 

 

I recently got this big white piano from New York…here's actually a picture of me playing it.

When I get my bass, I'll give it a nickname, for exemple, if it was a String Ray, I might call it Ray, RotoSound, I'd call it Roto (or John).

 

I wouldn't name any other instruments though, like I haven't named my drums, and I don't play too. I think naming guitars, and bass' isn't weird, maybe even a bit cool.

When I Twish And Shout, it makes the Girl say "What Goes On?", and than I say, "I do this Here, There and Everywhere", and than she finishes by saying "Honey Don't".

When I bought my Rickenbacker someone in the pub asked me what it was called, and quick as a flash I said: "Christina… because she's beautiful". Christina Aguilera was at number one with Beautiful at the time. I don't even like the song, but Christina it is.

BTW Kitzia, your Facebook link doesn't work. You've got a redundant facebook.com/ in the URL which breaks the link. And I'm very jealous of your dad!

 

Ah! Thanks a-hard-days-night-george-9 It's fixed now! You guys should add me a-hard-days-night-george-8

And Christina Aguilera? Ewww… a-hard-days-night-paul-1

I can't afford a Casino, so I'm saving up for an Epiphone Dot: http://www.theguitarstoreonlin…..69-85-234/

You all will have read that Dave Dee is no longer with us. But Mickey and Titch and I would like to carry on the good work that's always gone down in number two.

The Dot isn't a bad guitar. More of a bluesy sound then a Casino. I believe John used a dot for Yer Blues, I think.

Epiphone Dot is a semi-hollow guitar and Casino is a full hollow guitar. I believe John always played the same Casino.

I'd like to say "thank you" on behalf of the group and ourselves and I hope we passed the audition. John Lennon

I bought a black Hofner Icon about two weeks ago (see below).

There were shipping problems with USPS, but the guy says he'll be able to ship it on Monday. Can't wait a-hard-days-night-george-9
