This is pretty uncool.

Youā€™re rightā€¦ not so cool & I apologize if I offended anyone while trying to be funny.
Sometimes my ā€œnot so politically correct ā€œ humor carries me away. Sorry.

A lot of beautiful guitars in this thread here already. So many great pictures and stories behind them. :star_struck:
Thanks for sharing.

My two faithful fellows would like to join here, too. Both got names on the day they moved in.

So, gentlemen and ladies, please let me introduce ā€¦
Blackie and the Red Special.

Nice guitars. Couldnā€™t help but think of the George Thoughgood song ā€œI Drink Aloneā€

ā€œ Yeah, the other day I got invited to a party
But I stayed home instead
Just me and my pal, Johnnie Walker
And his brothers, Blackie and Redā€

Cheers

Hi Tony :slightly_smiling_face:
Thanks so much! Of course they arenā€™t rare or ā€œspecialā€ in any way, unlike lots of other guitars here, but I donā€™t care about that. They have been my companions for many years, and they are very dear to me.
So your kind words are very much appreciated :smiley:

Hello Glen :slightly_smiling_face:
Thanks a lot! Yes, you are right about the song. Havenā€™t thought of this one before. I guess, I didnā€™t even know the song when I bought Blackie as a teenager soooooo many years ago.
So maybe I need a third guitar now and name this one ā€œJohnnieā€? :grin:

All this talk of alcohol brought this one to my mindā€¦ If you get a guitar called Johnnie you have to play this song with it at least once per day :laughing:

There are some tutorials on YouTube :smiley: Not going to post any link to themā€¦ Easy to find though :slightly_smiling_face:

131

Oh thanks, Iā€™ll surely have a look ā€¦
And Iā€™m wondering how a guitar called ā€œJohnnieā€ would look like.
Will it rather be an electric or an acoustic one? :thinking:

132

Hmm ā€¦ You will know that once you find the one that speaks to you :slightly_smiling_face:

133

That really can be dangerous. Whenever Iā€™m in a music store, I do hear frequent whispers of ā€œBuy me!ā€ all around me :grin:
Itā€™s very hard to decide (or resist) :sweat_smile:

134

I think it would have to be this one:

OK, Iā€™m out ā€¦ :innocent:

Perhaps it can be considered as a reward for myself when I finally pass Grade 7 someday (and win the lottery :wink:)
Well, I havenā€™t even started Grade 2 yet, so thereā€™s still time ā€¦ :laughing:

try telling that to car guys!! :grinning:

139

Are they boy or girls guitars? That would dictate a proper name. But a guitar by any other name is stillā€¦a guitar.

Iā€™ve had guitars that were named after girls, boys and other themes. One is ā€œRoadkillā€, another is ā€œGreat Gatsbyā€.
