Currently I've been wanting to learn bass guitar. But I played trumpet throughout school.

Electric organ since I was five. Then switched to keyboards but haven't touched either in about three years. $:-\$

I actually play the Bass Guitar. Nothing like the pros, but I'm not bad.

You could just plug into an electric tuner and have it do the work for you until you develop an ear to do it yourself. They are as cheap as $10.

It's possible that his intonation needs to be... well intonated =P

I play mostly skin flute... but guitar was a close 2nd.

fiend --> does the ibanez have a floyd rose or similiar floating bridge / locking nut whammy bar based bridge?

On my yamaha, I pulled an eddie van halen and made it so it only dived down by putting a custom piece of wood behind the internal backside bridge fulcrum thingie... it added a little sustain and stability to my lower grade model guitar...

Which one I play most? sigh... Eventailly I decided on mandolin, but the penny whilstle is so much easier to pick up (it is never out of tune - at least with itself) that it might win by any casual observation. The mandolin is what I dream of playing though. When I see myself on stage in front of a million adoring fans I'm playing the mandolin. I wake up screaming a moment latter because I while I like being on stage, everything else about having a million adoring fans is something I hate. (I'm not a socal person)

My life long dream has been to be a good piano player, but I'm not good enough to enjoy playing it like I do the mandolin. So if I ever learn to properly play piano my answer will change.

I feel sorry for anyone limited to just one insterment though. Or in my case limited to just 3 (4 if you count my voice, too bad I can't find the right note often) Then again if I didn't have so many hobbies I might get something done on one of them.

LOL, I used to layout ads for a music store that sold those things. One time we almost ran an ad with a typo "Hose Flute".

Oh, yeah. I play the Recorder, 3rd grade music class, "Mary Had A Little Lamb".

RetroJames · « **Reply #14 on:** January 16, 2004, 08:08:36 am »

Trombone in grade school. Haven't picked one up since. We recently picked up an antique upright piano but the keys stick. I want to get it going again, but don't know where to start.

Frostillicus · « **Reply #15 on:** January 16, 2004, 08:56:19 am »

I used to play the piano pretty regularly when I had access to one, but I don't have a keyboard now. Kind of miss it. I tried to learn guitar, I suck and just don't have that kind of coordination - it was almost comical to watch - like charlie brown trying to write a pen-pal letter:

Rocky · « **Reply #16 on:** January 16, 2004, 11:23:14 am »

No drummers yet?

I play the trap set, but I'm pretty lame. My main instrument is the accoustic guitar. I also play the cornet (since 5th grade)

Trumpet for me. A little piano. And does 3 chords count as being able to play the guitar? Worked for a lot of bands in the 90's

I had no idea that this poll had become so popular

Guitar & Piano for me, I'm just starting out with guitar, but I like it.

nipsmg · « **Reply #23 on:** January 19, 2004, 02:07:43 pm »

Drums & Trumpet.. god I wish I could play them both at the same time.

Drums are fun tho :-D

And I don't want to hear this "those who can't play, drum" crap.. getting all 4 limbs to act independently and even carry different tempos is hard dammit

Drummer here, reporting for duty!

Is this thread a pretext to forming a BYOAC band or something? 'Cause if we're gonna cover "Pac Man Fever" or something, I'm OUT, man!
