What instrument(s) do you play?

[WindShear 532]

I play the piano, though I am not very good at it.

[Blue Snowfire 209]

I play the violin. I want to also learn piano, though.

[Koukatsu 5,899]

I play trumpet, clarinet, violin, and guitar, as well as being a choir kid in my school days, and I'm always looking for time to learn the bass.

[GammaDove 428]

I play the bagpipes, my parents forced me to pick an instrument, and I chose the bagpipes and fell in love with music, Now I also play the bass and acoustic guitar, does your voice count as an instrument? Oh, I also play the baritone sax, but I've always wanted to play the violin, it sounds beautiful and then I could sing a small parody.

YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THAT INSTRUMENT

FIDDLE FIDDLE FIDDLE
*vigorously plays tune to wiggle.*

No, but seriously, violin sounds beautiful and I find violin players fairly attractive.

[FlitterFlutter 1,583]

I have been playing the piano for 11 years, I like to say that I am pretty good.

I don't really like it when vocalists or just singers are labeled as "musicians" because they're not.

musician just means 'one with musical talent.' so in all technicalities, it does count.

I guess my definition is a bit more strict than others, for me, if someone is labeled as a musician, it means they have some form of mastery of an instrument in some way or another. Jim Morisson, for example was a killer poet and song writer but never played an instrument, therefore he is labeled as a vocalist/songwriter.

Me and my guitar, Mark.

 

Yes, I named my guitar, don't judge me.

[LightningMana 146]

I play piano and xylophone~

 

Mostly play Final Fantasy music on the piano~

[Felix 1,363]

I play the Clarinet and the piano.

[DubWolf 17,248]

I play the trombone and can also play the baritone. I have 9 years of experience on the bone.

[Scootaloodle 1,622]

I’m a lifelong keyboard player, always had one since I was about 5 years old, all self taught although I don't read sheet music or perform live "band music" I'm more of a EDM producer. 

[Time Shield 402]

Piano.  I also play violin, but it's been a long time since I've played.  I also write.

[GearheadWilliams 64]

I've been playing and studying the bass guitar for a good two years now... I also have some basic on how to play the guitar that I've been gathering for at least a year and a half and I've been taking singing lessons since the beggining of this year; but I still need more practice to say I actually know how to sing. You could say I'm a one-trick pony when it comes to music. (No pun intended)

 I'm also really interested in getting an upright bass and learning how to play it. They say it's entirely different from the bass guitar in terms of technique.

[pegasister94 18]

I'm a music major.. but my main instrument is the trombone. <3

I Highly recommend upright bass, a great instrument.

[Black Drake 6]

I play electric guitar, acoustic guitar, and some piano. I tried writing a song for guitar but decided to stick with just playing for now.

 

I can also sing if I'm in the mood.

[The Boulder 121]

I only really know how to play the Ukulele. I tried Piano once, and sucked pretty bad.

Singing is fun for me too, though I'm probobly not very good.

[Ziggy + Angel + Rain 11,302]

I am basically a musical idiot lol, but I can sort-of play a few instruments:

 

Keyboard

Melodica

Sopranino recorder

Soprano recorder

Alto recorder

 

I can't sight read sheet music anywhere near fast enough and have to either play from memory (in the case of the keyboard) or copy / paste these ridiculous pages full of recorder fingering doodads. xD  The latter ends up looking like-a-this-a:

 

I wish someone would give me a free saxophone so I can screw around on it lol.  Maybe I can play it - Idunno. xD

For some reason I imagined your avatar/namesake playing the ukulele, and it almost made me fall down laughing.

[yeet 2,027]

I'm practising guitar, not very good right now. But meh, I've still got my whole life to do it.

And that other guy that named his guitar, jsut because of that, when I get a new guitar in a few years (because when I get good, I would prefer a Gibson or fender) I think I might name mine Balthazar.

I should name every one of my drums and octobans tom, no pun intended.

I don't get it ._.

And I think drums would be fun. I think my next guitar will be a fender stratocaster. Either in purple, sunburst, or surf green.

I guess it's debatable whether a singer would be classified as a musician, I think as far as definition goes it can be, but some may prefer the term "vocalist" or some such.

 

I personally have no real opinion on the matter, I think both could be correct really.

I just felt like throwing in I knew a teacher at my school named Balthazar once ;p.

Out of pure curiousity, what type of guitar do you have now?

 

I've only been trying to teach myself guitar around a month and a half or so now really, so I'm not really even super knowledgable when it comes to guitars, but i'm still curious.

 

Right now I have a pretty basic Guitar, A Squire Strat by Fender. It's a black and white one, i've seen others who first learn guitar having ones very similar or just like them. (Had a friend selling one who bought it but never learned.) 

 

I don't even play it plugged in half the time though, because my amp is kinda crappy ;p, it's pretty cheap, but I got it and the guitar for a pretty decent deal. I figure i'll get better stuff once I start to learn much more.
