It's Squier, Squire

Also while we're on the subject, it's Häussel or Haeussel not Haussel. Really cringe-worthy when folk make such simple spelling errors: makes you kinda think they don't care so long as folk understand what they're saying?

Just sent a text on iPhone and "oki doki" was changed to "oil Richard" ???  My mate wouldn't have been best pleased! xD

I can write bollocks but not D.I.C.K. What if my name was d.i.c.k?

So I guess Lemmy's old band should have been Mo-teurgh-head?

You can be pretty sure that, at the time, they didn't know the spelling should be "Motörhead" or "Motoerhead". I'd also put money on the fact they NEVER pronounced it correctly.

You’d be flipped

edit: thats boring, was hoping for something far more adventurous from the swear filter.

Slightly OT but did anyone ever get a definitive answer on correct pronunciation of 'Warwick' as in Warwick basses?

I've tried to find out before, but even Germans can't seem to agree on whether it's 'Var vick' ,'War wick', 'Bar bick' or some combination of the aforementioned.

In my house, it's "Warwick" as in "Warwickshire".

That's how I pronounce it, and probably always will.

Mind you, I refuse to say Eyebanez or Nikee despite knowing that those are the correct pronunciations.
