Out of the 2 names you listed i like griffen guitars better but,the only problem i would have with that is you dont want people to think your selling a brand name of guitars called griffen.I would keep an open mind and see what else is avalible as well as picking a name that would be good as a .com address as well.Best of luck to you

Its a little bit of both smile.gif I do alot of pre-ordering, so if you e-mail me saying you wanted... say a mesa boogie 5:50 express i could order it and sell it to you in a week. But i also do try and gather used guitars so that i can sell them and at least attract people with some stock... i do not unfortunatly have a storefront yet, soon as long as i keep selling things smile.gif
