The Baby Taylor has named herself, finally.

Meet Lilith Julie, or just plain Lilith.

ooh... a baby Taylor... *impressed*

Why did you choose to name her after Adam's first wife?

Guitars, like cats, tend to choose their own names. Julie is there because of who I bought it from, as indicated in that earlier post. Lilith... well, my other guitars are Imp and Pixie, both supernatural beings. At first I thought she wanted an elfin name as well, but she's definitely more sexy than either Imp or Pixie, and the people who've played her aside from me have had glints in their eye considering getting one, so she's definitely seductive. Lilith is a good name - evokes Lilith Fair, independence, feminism - she has a strong voice despite her small body. It just suits her.
