I'm very multi-talented. I play french horn, guitar, and piano. Here's me doing all of them at the same time.

I used to play the recorder, of course that was only cause we had to in music class. And I got the ocarina that looks like the ocirina from Zelda Ocarina of time, I ever really played it too long though because I could never learn how to play it right. I also played the piano for like a month then stopped.
I'm not really musically talented I guess. *shrugs*

I "play" guitar. Right now I have a Gibson Faded SG Special that I frigging love to death. She runs through a Marshall AVT275 that I think is alright. My next guitar will be a Martin D-1 acoustic, I hope. I'm trying to learn to play the drums by practicing for about fifteen minutes a day once or twice a week... not going too well.

I know you all are talking about guitars but here is my instruments since I'm a music major.......
I play on a Selmer Recital B flat & A clarinet (two larger ones-B flat on the right, A on the left). My E flat clarinet (the small one) is a Buffet R13.
My flute is an old Armstrong Emertis.
I also play on a Yanagasawa tenor saxophone and Yamaha alto sax.
I also own a Takamine acoustic guitar but that's at home and I can't play too much on it anyway.
Here's a piture of some of my babies!

And so I post my reply to my own thread... :)
I have been playing piano and synths (sell taught) for just over 13 years now. I've freelanced with a few local bands, done session work in small-time studios, and now I have my own band which sort of melds classic 80s hard rock with more contemporary heavy metal.
Here's what I have in my arsenal of sound...
Korg X5D Synthesiser (http://www.korg.co.uk/products/pro_keyboard/x5d/pk_x5d.asp)
Korg Triton Workstation (http://www.korg.co.uk/products/workstations/triton/ws_triton.asp[/url)
And I'm currently saving ye olde pennies for a Roland RS70, so I can have some much better piano samples and an easier way of uploading or creating new sounds :)
I also play drums, but do not own a kit :( God knows how I learned to play, but I'm not too bad.

Squier Stratocaster electric guitar - cheap and dirty but it does the trick.
...through a Boss ME-50...
...to a ENGL Sovereign 100 Vintage 112 amp - hand-made in Germany, all tube. :love:
Fender JP-90 bass guitar - rare make from the only 90s, discontinued after two years. Not bad value for money, and it's a real Fender.
...to a Fender BXR25 bass amp - piddly little practice amp.
I also have a Aria Pro II bass kicking about somewhere - it's a proper piece of crap.
My cello is German-made, not sure of the luthier.

Awful vocalisms, and an instinct leaning towards a bass, but if I play that, then I won't be able to go crazy on stage at my sellout arena tours in three years time.

Percussionist by trade for 15 years and vocalist since I can remember, though not terribly good at either.
I'm currently in the market for a new set, as I sold my old one to a friend who needed it more than I. Usually, I just set up a set at my college or at a local studio and jam my heart away.
Music is the universal artform, knowing no limitations. Never be afraid to express your musical gifts or loves.
Take care all.

and my baby, my cello, handmade in germany by johann wilfur.

-a King trombone (no F-extention :cry: )
-Sigma acoustic/electric
-that's all I own, but I can also play piano and bass guitar
and I've got a half-decent voice
Unfortunately I haven't had much time to play any of them recently:( ! However I recently resolved to get back into it. Just haven't actually started.
