 Who plays an instrument?
Who plays an instrument? I play guitar, both 12 string and 6 and also play bass in an oldies band. I might post a cover song or 2 that our band recorded.

 Re: Who plays an instrument?
I play guitar primarily, and started piano again two summers ago.
I played in a band last year, though we all went off to college in different states, so that arrangement ended. I'm looking to start something up here (blues band maybe?), though I have yet to find a single person to jam with, let alone start a band with. Maybe that's what I get for going to a tech school.
My current gear:
Guitars: Ibanez Acoustic/Electric Gibson SG Special MIM Fender Strat with S1 pickguard and American electronics Another MIM Strat that I got cheap to strip, refinish, and install new pickups. Already stripped, going to refinish it in a nitro fiesta red.
Amps: Fender "The Twin" Amplifier Fender Blues Junior
Keys: 1979 Fender Rhodes

 Re: Who plays an instrument?
I had an original SG Special (which today would have been worth a fortune) and smartly traded it for a shitty 12 string guitar (which is so shitty it cant be played). Ahhhh....the follies of youth, haha

 Re: Who plays an instrument?
from 5th grade through high school I played violin and also in high school i played string bass. which would lead one to think i could easily play guitar but for some reason i cannot get the hang of that!

 Re: Who plays an instrument?
Not too surprising. The violin is a totally different scale and the bass is a "one-note" technique. Guitar and chords is completely different. Frankly, since I too am not very good on guitar, prefer to play bass with my friends.

 Re: Who plays an instrument?
I dont play any strings, even though I do try and play bass... but I have no rythm.
And I have very large hands and they are too strong for their own good sometimes. So I stick to rockband.
