Do you play an instrument?

[Rocket Edge]

People of EoFF, do you play any musical instrument? Did you ever attempt too - or do you plan on ever playing something? Please state what instrument you would like too take up or have played.

I've been playing a 4 string Tenor Banjo for the past year. It's range is very much suited for traditional Irish music, and it's all I personally use it for. We have a festival here called the Fleadh Ceoil and its where many people gather to play trad music and it's great fun.

This is my instrument:

It isn't anything special of yet but I plan on getting something better in years to come. :)

In my early childhood days, I was an acceptable pianist. Those days are long gone, though.

[Kirobaito]

I play several instruments. Since my early days, I have dabbled in the piano. Near the end of high school, I began playing the guitar, and I currently own a cheap Ibanez, a cheap Washburn as well as my main guitar, a Martin JC-16RE. I also own a hollow-body electric Ibanez.

For the last two years, I have played the five-string banjo. I own a Deering Goodtime Two, as well as a handmade maple banjo that I came into possession of. It was old and needed refurbishing, but it sounds great. I use it for Seeger-style frailing and Scruggs three-finger style, neither of which I'm particularly good at yet.

I can also fiddle around on just about any brass instrument, though right now my chops are not in any form to speak of. I also own an accordion that I am learning.

All except the small one at the bottom. Mostly the one in the middle.

I play Guitar Hero. I hear it's exactly the same as playing a real guitar.

ZOMG like no ways it's not you fool! :p


No, I have zero artistic talents of any kind.

[Peegee]

Piano, clarinet, bass clarinet, guitar (Acoustic) at various points in my life.

[Shiny]

I like to sing-a in the moon-a in the June-a in the spring-a.

I play piano. I used to play clarinet in elementary school.

[Pheesh]

I've played drums for the better part of my existence, I've been playing guitar for about 5 years now and I've been learning piano since last Christmas. As far as my instruments; I have a pearl kit with various export and masters pieces that I bought individually and then had repainted the same colour, and I use a mix of Zildjian A and K custom cymbals. Guitar wise I have an Ibanez AW Acoustic and A PRS Custom 24 which. I'm currently hiring the piano that I have, think I might get rid of it and buy an electronic keyboard with weighted keys and such though, it'd be better suited for what I have to do with it.

[Aerith's Knight]

The Piano, but I've not played for so long, I can only remember 2 1/2 song.

[Slothy]

Drums and Piano. Come Christmas I plan to add a Korg Kaossilator to the mix.

I can play the recorder.

Kinda.

[Shorty]

I played bass for a while. I've always wanted to learn to play the sax and the harmonica. Sigh.

edit: bah, I completely forgot that I played the violin for a few years when I was really little.

[Rantz]

I played recorder, guitar and sax at different points throughout primary school. I quit because all the music teachers just put me off, but lately I've been wanting to play again. EVERY INSTRUMENT IN EXISTENCE.

[Breine]

Sadly no. I'd love to be able to play something. Anything! But I can't. It probably has something to do with me never having taken any classes. Well, I played the recorder a little bit when I was like 10, but that was only because it was obligatory in the elementary school I went to.

However, I always get asked if I play any instruments. Apparently I look like a musician.

[NorthernChaosGod]

I play guitar, bass and drums fairly well. I can play a little piano, but not with much skill. :greenie:

I've been wanting to get better at piano and pick up the violin.

[Yar]

I've been playing piano for 11 months. My tutor says I'm progressing really quickly, but I still feel stupid at it. :p

Thinking about maybe picking up saxophone?? Depends on my tax refund :D

During my first couple years of High School, I had played an instrument for the school band. I played the trombone and later on, switched to the clarinet. I think I preferred playing the clarinet because I hated the trombone, though I originally wanted to play the trumpet when I started.

[Brennan]

I usually teach myself how to play guitar when I have free time. (Acoustic)

[Laddy]

I mess with piano, but I'm a good guitarist and a fine bassist. I also plan on getting vocal lessons so I can sing all of my fav songs from Cabaret.

[Levian]

Nope, my parents didn't have any hopes and dreams for me.

[NorthernChaosGod]

I'm actually taking a piano class next semester at school, so I'm hoping to get some skills. :D

[Rye]

I play the butt trumpet like a boss. ;3

[NorthernChaosGod]

You're gross, Rye. :|

[Pheesh]

You never go ass to mouth.

[Lone Wolf Leonhart]

I have an electric guitar, a keyboard, and a pretty basic drum set. I love playing music, but i'm terrible at creating my own.

I was a trumpet player in middle school, but that was because being in band got you out of classes like home economics and industrial arts.

Also this.

YAY!

I say we all make a collab! Whatya say!? One of us makes a file of them playing, and then someone else puts it in audacity and plays over it, and so on and so forth.

:D?

[LowCaloriePie]

Trumpet and piano, and currently learning guitar. =]
