OfflineI've only recently taken up guitar, but I've been playing piano for about five, maybe six years. It's a lot of fun. I've been playing mouth organ since I was about four, but it runs in the family so I didn't really choose to play it. And I picked up bass in my first year of secondary school. ![]()

OfflineDrums are my first love. Had lessons in school grade 5-8. In high school they did not need any drummers, so I learned the trumpet & baritone horn. Self taught keyboards and guitar around that time. When I was about 12, I bought a used Beatles song book. A lot of the pictures were cut out. There was only one song in the book that was complete, "Something". That was the first song I ever learned on guitar.
I still play guitar and keyboards a little. More of a hobby now. I only have one music book and it's The Beatles. What else is there?

OfflineI taught myself to play the guitar (mostly acoustic)about 14 years ago, and sing along with it, while playing the tambourine with my right foot.
My wife and I had a duo ("Two of us"!!), and sometimes we would do an evening of "Beatles experience" with about 40 songs (she played a hofner bass and sang). Today I perform solo in the street or on parties of all kinds and sizes. My repertoire is about 200 songs from the heart. My specialty is that I can play any song I know in any key.
Same goes for the piano, which I taught myself to play as well.
Since I started with an electric two-manual organ plus pedal I think I can count that as well.
I used to play bass in a rock band. Taught myself how to play it, mostly by playing along to Beatles and Supertramp albums!
The only instrument I got lessons in is the trumpet.
At school I teach children how to play the recorder, but I'm not that good at it.
I wish I had a drumset, then I guess I could play it, too.

OfflineAt the moment I'm mostly drums and percussion, which can include a number of things. I can also play flute and some trumpet. I can fiddle around on a piano and know a few guitar chords, these instruments I would like to learn more in depth. After that is bass I suppose.

OfflineI only really play violin right now. (Unless you count a singing voice as an instrument.) But I'm trying to teach myself guitar, yet I don't have much time to make a lot of progress on it right now. Hopefully in the future I can take the time to actually learn.

OfflineI just had this image of Steve Martin playing his banjo. He always looked like he was having fun with it.

OfflineI mainly play guitar and I sing.
My bass playing has also become pretty decent, thanks to figuring out McCartney bass lines
and I have some basic understanding of drums and piano, although I'm not at all good with them.
My girlfriend and I are both musicians, so our appartment is stuffed with musical gear and instruments.

OfflineI played clarinet for a few years in middle school, so I can read music but I subsequently gave that up. I own lots of instruments; I start to learn one and then get bored and move on. It's terrible really, it just means that I am below average at bass guitar, ukulele, keyboard and melodica… And genuinely good at playing nothing!
