In Cyborg (1989), JC Van Damme plays Gibson Rickenbacker. Other lead character's: Fender Tremolo, Marshall Strat, Nady Simmons, Pearl Prophet are named after musical instruments or manufacturers. Gibson was written for Chuck Norris, but JCVD got the part after demonstrating a spinning split kick.

Accordion to research, 9 out of 10 people don't notice when you replace words with random musical instruments.

Please don’t become angry and resort to violins if you didn't notice.

I know we all have our opinions about the new masks, I happen to love them! But what do you guys think of the Strat? As a guitar player myself, I'm not a fan of Fender, just not my thing. Not that I'll nitpick instrument choices, this is just for discussion. I'm just not that into the Strats.

The Taliban set fire to musical instruments of singers in the Zazi Aryub district of Paktia province. Terrorism and killings are permissible in Taliban’s Islam, but anything that ends hatred, increases love, brings happiness to human life, is haraam.

Hot Take: Musical instrument proficiencies are stupid

So per the PHB: "Your Charisma (Performance) check determines how well you can delight an audience with music, dance, acting, storytelling, or some other form of entertainment." So to play music well, you use Performance.

Also per the PHB: "Your proficiency bonus can’t be added to a single die roll or other number more than once."

So for a character like a bard, who is almost certainly going to be proficient in Performance, and who is also likely to have a number of instrument proficiencies, they are completely redundant. So for the characters they should be most important to they are, instead, meaningless.

XGtE added a little bit of usefulness to tool proficiencies (though they're still a hot mess), but instrument proficiencies are still basically useless, and clearly weren't well thought out.
