How many of you guys actually play an instrument? which ones

[mystahr]

There's a few keys on the tier here, but I think I'm better at noodling and programming them rather then playing. Although it's a lot better then a year ago.

[Borogove]

Keyboard (black keys only)
Bass (recently expanding from one-string basslines to two-string basslines)
Guitar (two chords)

[jeffn1]

I am a piano/keyboard player. I can play a little guitar and I took clarinet in middle school.

[kara]

Piano, guitar & bass

Rony

[virtual virtuoso]

I believe I can play the Kazoo ..
As for Guitar - see my handle. Been noodling around for a quarter of a century . Now I can do blues and major scales at least. Will take lessons as soon as money allows and preferred purchases are made
Can play beginners Classical Guitar from sheet
Plays Bass like a guitar player (wish I had one)
Can play C major scale on Keyboard and Recorder

My daughter can play Lego better than me - sad

I play drums, guitar, bass and keyboard all reasonably well , not a specialist on any of them though, but i think i play the drums best.

Actually I'm liking this jack-o-all-trades approach, I can be my own rock band that way, which is a lot.

Sometimes I envy "real" instrumentalists a little though.


now if i only had the guts to sing....

[nool]

i play the ukelele











ok i don't ;p

[scuzzphut]

piano - well
guitar - pretty good
bass - reasonable

bongos - passable

[Sascha Franck]

p.s. that old Gibson amp is really cool... has the original 15" Jenson field coil speaker... (2 6L6s)

Would you please stop to even talk about it?
There's close to NONE of those over here and if you find one you could bet it's either totally blown up or expensive as hell!

[IvoryTickler]

Piano - (8 years of lessons / exams etc as a kid)
Guitar - chords

My oldest girl (10) plays the flute, but a piano keyboard is the ticket to MIDI input so I must step up her piano lessons.

I wish I had had some sort of singing lessons. I can hit and hold a note, and have perfect pitch, but you wouldn't want to listen to it for too long

[donkey tugger]

Geetar, not bad
Singing - ok
Bass, pretty f**king metel! (well, like lemmy... )
Drums - hit em hard and can hold a good funky beat, but some of me rolls are a little ...ambitious
Keyboards - no thanks


And I saw a cheap mandolin in a shop today........

[Soniccat]

I can play guitar fairly decently but have not played much this past year been focusing on playing keys which is meager at best but I manage to actually make music (I mix sequencing with live playing) and I am determined to get better. I studied African percussion while in college but sold my conga drum years ago to buy a Les Paul Special which I don't have anymore (damn) and I at one point could play a little harmonica but don't have the lungs for that any more (damn smoking)

[ccollinsmith]

I can play rhythm guitar (but as someone said above, I'm not a guitarist).

I can play some piano, some percussion, a little bit of flute. I played sax and clarinet in college and was pretty decent on clarinet, but haven't played in years.

The instrument that I play best is accordion. No, I'm not joking. The Celtic-Rock band I ended up playing with got to back Shane MacGowan opening night at the Viper Room. (I was the pickup accordion player for that gig, which is how I met my future bandmates). It was all great fun. And it definitely helps to play an unusual (but occasionally in-demand) instrument if you want in on the cool gigs.

[nitrowheels]

guitars since 1981 and then synths
(played jazz in a sextet)

now devoted to funk/disco house

[Krakatau]

Well...by my side i play a bit of congas, djembés and other percussions...

also a bit of piano / keyboard and a few backing vocals

but since i'm behind my computer...
