So far the Never thought about it people are ahead. We must have a lot of 'Its' out there.

Mind you sometimes my guitars get called unrepeatable names which maybe should also have been an option

My better half calls my guitars my babies, but I never really thought about it much. I usually refer to them by make although I have to agree that I've called a couple of them by unmentionable names !!!

In Hebrew, which is a gendered language, much like French, guitars are female--so no choice there.

But in English I use "it" or "them". I don't tend to personify inanimate objects enough to want to genderize (if that's a word) them.
