Shout Out to Robert...and Naming a Guitar

[Sp8ctre]

Von Herndon that is!

The Humbuckers he gave me are working out great in the Strat even though I don't think they belong there!

I need to name it in his honor. Suggestions? Here is a pic, you've all seen it in my Strat Family thread...

...and you can chime in too Robert.

Hmmm...I've never named a guitar, so that's very interesting to me. Sparky does seem to fit though!

The humbuckers you made are kind of Sparky as well...

...or how about Miss Fire? Kind of a play on words as in plugs misfiring?

That's a really cool name... LOL! The project did kind of 'misfire' at first anyways..

I must say that I am really happy to see that pickguard getting used. Even the oddball volume knob placement doesn't look bad!!!! The string spacing is a very good match with your bridge spacing too....

"Whoa, Black Betty (Bam-ba-Lam)
Whoa, Black Betty (Bam-ba-Lam)....
....
She really gets me high (Bam-ba-Lam)
You know that's no lie (Bam-ba-Lam)
She's so rock steady (Bam-ba-Lam)
And she's always ready (Bam-ba-Lam)"

I'd call it the "Big Apple Black Strat."
