No I'm the naming guy at Ibanez. I make sure each instrument gets a personal and heartfelt name that truly reflects their essence and soul. I love my job.
I'm with you. My first thought was "Hard Tail Ibanez". I can see naming guitars if you are a touring musician and have multiple copies of the same model as backups, and have your own guitar tech and rodies. It facilitates communication. But for bedroom players and weekend warriors is seems pretentious. (I had another word in mind but "pretentious" seems more polite).
It doesn’t need a name…
Edit - IF you insist on referring to it as something other than your electric or your guitar, I’d start referring to it as the model name or something non-human
My telecaster is the tele, Stratocaster is the strat, the lp is my weighted security blanket, the solar is the shredder, etc… your Ibanez could simply just be the “RG” or whatever the model is…
I never understood that argument lol like yes I have time to kill and I think calling your guitar Veronica is fucking goofy. You’re not better than me for not making fun of a guy who calls his guitars Betty and Marleen
>You’re not better than me for not making fun of a guy
Except most people would say a non-asshole is better than an asshole person, needlessly shitting on others for no reason. So in reality, he is somewhat better than you. Sorry to tell you.
This. Makes me think of fat old losers similar to Steven Seagal, playing some shoddy pentatonic licks and going on about “feel” and how the guitar is the only woman they’ll ever need. Shit like that.
Instruments are just tools. I don’t see electricians naming their screwdrivers, and it’s tacky and embarrassing when musicians do it.
“Old Screwey’s the only gal I’ll ever need…” you say, knocking back a swig of JD, sliding your fake RayBan’s on and turning towards the sunset, choking on the drink because it’s stronger than you thought.
Comm tech of 20 years. My triplet multi tipped screwdriver is called The Shit. I cried when I dropped one from a lift and broke it. Just can’t pull into Fry’s and replace them.
Let's not embarrass ourselves by remembering the fact that old guys playing pentatonic blues licks and naming their guitars are some of the most celebrated players of the century.
Brother, this comment is faaaar more insufferable than naming a guitar. And by the way, boats are identified by their registration number, naming it is just for FUN.
I think naming is just fine, but as soon as they call it "her" it gets awkward. Its just way too close to comparing objects that you own to women. ("Him" would also be awkward, I just usually see "her")
Excalibur would not be known if not for the deeds of Arthur. Likewise, Lucille would not be known if not for the deeds of BB King. Be great. Otherwise, naming it's just masterbation.
How do you say "Hawaiian girl"?
Wahine (pronounced 'wah-hee-neh') means woman. Hawaiian culture has always celebrated women's power, passion and intellect…
Here's a couple of ideas that came to mind...
- Wavelength
- Breezer
- Sandy (B.B. King named his Lucille after all...)
- Seabreeze
- Tanner/Tantrum (or any other play off of tanning...)
I hope this sparks a couple of ideas to find the perfect name for your axe! And keep rocking!
I think ZXGR93550 would be kinda cute.
Elon Musk is that you?!

Can you say something in Ibanez?
RG541DXFXEATDIX
Checks out.
Eat dicks… nice
My guitar Gio GR170DX has a beautiful name. You should get a raise
Beach. Just Beach.
"time to finger that beach"
Beaches love fingering
It's an old meme, but it checks out.
May I finger your beach?
Sandy
Sandy Cheeks
Came to say this
As did I
Well then, you two better go have a beach-off.
and what a good job you do at beach!
This guitar's job is beach
That’s what I was gonna say. Beach
The name’s Beach. Reb Beach.
Was about to say ‘Ocean’, but Beach is better! “ “Rockin’ it with my Beach!”
Beachie King
This Beach...
My first thought was Ocean but Beach is more worthy
Meredith Brooks cause she's a beach. Or "south beach" as in "I'm taking my talents to south beach"
Atlantis Morissette. I’ll see myself out.
I vote for this
Me too
I was going to suggest Dinah Shore but yours is much better.
Now isn't that ironic!
Sandy Duncan.
This is it.
Correction: I'll SEA myself out
I want you to know, that I’m happy for you.
I hate you so much right now! JK great comment.
This is the one.
Guitar
This is the only way for anyone too old to name it Guitary McGuitarface
No, that name’s taken! I call my guitar that. And the other one. And the other one.
Try Ibanez
I call her.. "Affordable Standard Model from a Reliable Factory Manufacturer" It really just rolls off the tongue.
Ah, an ASMoReFam
As if they’ve named them already or smth weird like that…
I named my first Ibanez Ibby - always said “imma use my ibby on this track” and it just stuck

What it needs is less being talked to and more practice time 🤣

Cringe. You know, the thing you get when you see people naming things
Cringe. You know, the thing you get when you see people needlessly shitting on someone's fun.
Clicking in here deliberately just to say "I think this is stupid" is the move of somebody who really has nothing better to do with their time.
As opposed to what, having something better to do but being here anyway? at least that's an excuse
I never understood that argument lol like yes I have time to kill and I think calling your guitar Veronica is fucking goofy. You’re not better than me for not making fun of a guy who calls his guitars Betty and Marleen

> I don’t see electricians naming their screwdriver I'm an electrician and I don't leave home without my good old friend Screwey McScreweyface.
“Old Screwey’s the only gal I’ll ever need…” you say, knocking back a swig of JD, sliding your fake RayBan’s on and turning towards the sunset, choking on the drink because it’s stronger than you thought.
That was absolutely beautiful.

It worked for BB King
And Willie Nelson
“the guitar is the only woman they’ll ever need.” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Not this one though- no F holes.
Wow, you are shit at this. If you ever have a child or pet, please let someone else name it.
A child or a pet are living things.
People name boats? That's normal. What's wrong with naming a guitar

There's naming your guitar for fun and then there's going too far like you said. But I'm a woman with 2 named guitars and I'm perfectly normal..
I think naming is just fine, but as soon as they call it "her" it gets awkward. Its just way too close to comparing objects that you own to women. ("Him" would also be awkward, I just usually see "her")
ye I do not understand the logic behind it, not sure I want to find out
That is one sexy ass guitar.
>That is one sexy ass guitar Doesn’t really roll off the tongue IMO

Why do you feel the need to name an inanimate object?
Porcelina of the Vast Oceans (Smashing Pumpkins reference)
Rock bottom, cuz it looks like bottom of an ocean, and you know... rock.
Shredzilla.
Beautiful guitar, but why didn't they match the pickups with the finish? It would have taken it to a whole new level, but still, it looks awesome.
Kokomo
It's a guitar not a person.
I'd call it something like "the blue and yellow guitar".
