The Official 'What Instrument do you play?' Thread

I took lessons for piano for five years, but didn't like being told what to play. I still play, some, but mainly just do it by ear.

I played french horn for six years in middle and high school, and hated playing it. My parents made me.

Sophomore year of high school, I taught myself to play the acoustic guitar and have been doing that for four years now. I finally found an instrument that I enjoy practicing. I play traditional and contemporary folk music, in the image of Tom Paxton, Phil Ochs, Pete Seeger, and Woody Guthrie.

I have YouTube videos, but its' been awhile since I've uploaded anything.

That game is an abomination unto we, the musicians, who can really tear it up for real!

[bernardos70]

Some songs are actually harder to play in guitar hero than in a real guitar!

[ocelot_ark]

Tuba was my forte.
Played some piano, trombone, euphonium, trumpet, clarinet, sax, percussion as part of being a music major.
Played a LITTLE guitar. Was pretty decent at bass guitar.

Thanks guys - but no, no pickups included! I can always install a humbucker later after I convert it to be playable with an amp!!!

[bernardos70]

A mic does the trick, no need for pickups.
