I used to play Cello when I was in 8th grade. Been so long though, I miss it.

[Bonzy 71]

My instrument of choice is the Cello. Play a lot of movie songs and some Celtic stuff in my spare time.

I considered picking up Bass Guitar, but I don't feel like killing my money on one.

[Fade 78]

I trying to get into teaching a music class at a high school. Right now I work at a store teaching the saxophone, trumpet, trombone, bass and electric guitar, drums, tuba, upright bass, flute, and the piano. Almost there!

[Discordian 6,015]

If I had the money, I would so get a Cello again. I have all the music from my school days (I had a bad habit of never returning sheet music and practice books)

 

My only problem is I never learned how to tune properly so I need to somehow learn how to do that too.

[Mint Petal 258]

I used to play the trumpet until after high school now I just mess around on a piano and my ocarina.

[LyraHeartstrings 482]

I play the trombone and piano. I`m a self-taught pianist and am not that great, but I can play, so ha!

[Gummy 725]

Back in middle/high school I played trombone, Guitar, and bass guitar. Really wish I learned piano when I was younger.

[Apple Bloom 2,933]

I don't play any instruments but I've always wanted to learn piano. I might take some lessons when I get the time.

[Marshmallow 1,137]

I play guitar. And a bit of self-taught piano, but guitar is really my main instrument

Actually, I've just purchased my first 12-strings acoustic guitar last saturday! I love it, it really has an amazing sound!

 

edit: oh yeah, I played trumpet and trombone back in high-school, but I probably couldn't remember most of the notes!

[RBD57 6]

I play guitar, keys and cello. And a little bass and classical piano, but they're more a bi-product of skills I picked up with other instruments. Oh, and I sing. Badly.

[Pony Joe 583]

A little over a month ago I started guitar lessons in school. So far, so good.

[Vinyl Scratch 262]

I'm a singer. I'm a lyric Baritone, and my main focus is in opera. Still, I'm game for pretty much anything!

I've been singing for over a decade now (classical for about 5).

 

I do backup vocals for LA Punk legends Youth Gone Mad, though we'll have to change the name soon since the main singer is leaving.

Iv'e been playing the piano for around about nine or so years now, I was taught for six years, but the monotony of lessons began to take impact, so i ditched the lessons and the sheet music, and have been learning and composing by ear ever since and loving it.

[Derpy1 137]

I don't really play any instruments...

 

I love the Piano and the Violin though :3

[Crispy 5,563]

I've been playing guitar on and off for about 6 years.

[Envy 6,156]

I play the bassoon. I've also played trumpet, clarinet, and I have learned piano for classes. But bassoon is my main instrument. I need to learn the saxophone (which I can play somewhat, but that's a long story) and someday I'd like to learn the oboe, but only after I have completed school and consider myself good enough at the bassoon.

[Octavia2 83]

I've been in piano for about seven years, though I only recently started playing seriously.

I also play trombone in our school band.

 

I consider myself to be a good musician, and I play all genres of piano or trombone I can get my hands on.

[ryak 135]

I played violin for about 6 months when I was in elementary school. I really wish I would have kept up with it, since it's one of the most beautiful instruments in my opinion.

[Kurtiss 205]

I play piano, I was taught at a school for a few years and then begin teaching myself, been playing for 10 years and still play almost everyday. I also play guitar, which I learned at my High School for 2 years, I play that every now and then. I also play trumpet, I use to be in the school band but I stopped... and I don't know why. I sort of miss it. :/

[Sageflare 276]

I play Electric guitar and cello I haven't been able to play either because they are both in storage until I move into our new house in about a month.

[janglehooves 3]

I play guitar reasonably competently, mostly rock/indie/folk type stuff. I'm not much of a solo player, more rhythm/crosspicking/arpeggiated chord type stuff (like Roger McGuinn or Peter Buck...not that I'm anywhere near as good as them...). I also mess around on mandolin and Irish bouzouki (yes it does exist...), I can get a tune out of them but probably more by luck than judgement...

[Vinyl Scratch 262]

Okay, let's talk dream instruments. The Rickenbacker bass below. I want this so bad.

Incidentally, I already own a Hofner knockoff.

 

In the guitar department, the Spectrum 5:

 

 

 

 

The Moog guitar would also be a sweet acquisition. Here's it in action, in case you don't know what I'm talking about:

[willinilly 134]

I used to Play Trombone in middle school and now I occasionally mess around with my Electric Bass, though I'm not very good (Aka I only know like two things.)

[Proctra Music 335]

Taught myself piano. Can play almost all zelda OOT songs. Then Fi's theme.
