Is it cool to have your name on the headstock?

PhilT:
I've seen some catalog scans for "Phil" brand basses and thought it might be cool to have my name on the headstock, but they were more modern designs, not sure I want to be associated with a copy.

Well, I've thought about what to put on some of my home builds.  A bare headstock just needs something - what, I don't know.  I'm not sure about your name though - kind of reminds me of the pickups you see down here sometime - you know, "Bubba" on the driver's side of the back glass and "Thelma Lou" on the passenger side :D

But, let us not forget the rainbow "SRV" stickers that a Texas guy stuck on a few of his guitars ::)  Keep in mind he could play fairly well :) 

Barklessdog:
John is just not appealing on a headstock. :'(

Lightyear:
Well, there's always "BarklessDog Industries"

As a homage to my first cartoon love I've thought about the "ACME" moniker ;D

Dave W:
Phil, are you talking about buying that one, or putting your name on a home build?

If I were you I probably wouldn't put my name on a home build since the Phil brand already exists (or existed),  just to avoid confusion. But it might be fun to buy that one and tell everybody it came directly from your own Korean factory.
