I have no idea why I call my mandolin "Gracie" other than perhaps a respectful homage to Gracie Allen (for you old timers).
"Come on Gracie, time to play" or "I may need to change your strings Gracie, your sounding a little horse lately".
Perhaps speaking with my instrument(s) borders a bit on the senile but alas, I'm a young 65 and these sorts of things I hear tell do occur as time progresses.
Now, that said, I've seen and heard more than one lady or gentleman swearing aloud at their golf clubs or a car battery but rarely do I hear someone besides myself, talking to my mandolin.
I'm gonna "WOW" them in the nursing home in another 20 years.
I truly hope I'm not the only one that speaks to their instruments.
