F= Fylde Guitars
Made in Penrith Cumbria. I have handled and played one of these fine instruments, it's quite an experience for an old chordsman like me! This one is named after malt whiskey, has a certain appeal.

You haven't done the obvious one yet, so I'll do it for you.

How about I = Indie Guitars ?

"Indie Guitars is an electric guitar company offering bold and inspired Custom Electric Guitars, Cool Guitar Design at affordable price."

I don't know much about them they seem to be known more for their color schemes and graphics (like the union jack) than the actual quality of the guitar! Actually that's unfair. They own their own factory in Korea and like to sell through small dealers in US and UK rather than box-shifting superstores.

I thought this one looked OK..

I don't think you've mentioned this one, although it's a very obvious choice

K = Kay Guitars

The Kay Musical Instrument Company existed between the late 19th century and late 1960s and as well as the Kay brand also made guitars under various other trade names such as Old Kraftsman, Beltone, Holiday, Silvertone, Supertone etc. Like many guitar makers, they initially made guitars in USA but later moved production to Japan.
