Well, I think something like, "I'm Looping with the ECHOPLEX" with a Gibson logo would suggest "Delay" music due to the fact that everyone who speaks English knows the word "echo" means a delayed repetition of sound. Good name. It kind of already says what it does. Add the word loop in there and if what you're doing is obviously repeating to some degree, or doing anything that a non looper equipped instrumentalist couldn't do, it should spark some interest.
