What instrument(s) do you play??

Post by Jesus' Princess »

So what do you play? I play piano, fiddle, guitar and I do voice. My favorite would be the violin, I only recently got good enough on it to actually sound good, before that, you didn't want to be in the house when I was practicing :- Guitar is fun to do backup on, and piano is fun to play anything on \:D/

I'm learning guitar, but I sound terrible, and I used to know piano (I can only read basic notes) \:D/ So I'm not too bad off :- Or so I like to think to make myself feel better ;) And nobody say I'm vain :noway:

I play piano, played clarinet in band, and know a few chords on guitar. I'm better at piano than the other instruments, however.

I play guitar (and some of you may say I'm really good... I wouldn't really), and I can play some drums (air drumming actually helps me), and since bass isn't on the poll I clicked "other" (technically I don't play bass yet, but it's so similar to guitar), and I also "play" the vuvuzela.

She left many of us behind. She left us heartbroken. And though we cry now there'll come a time when we'll laugh. Because we'll see her again someday. We'll be with her in heaven.

I can say I am pretty decent with a electric guitar, but I was taught by my dad to play it using my left hand since he's a lefty. So it does feel a bit awkward since I am right handed.

Trying to get back into piano and is currently struggling trying to play with two hands.

And I am not good at singing, just love to do it.

I play recorder and flute, so I voted other. \:D/

Methinks we need to do some sort of guitar (or all instrument) competition... partly because I want to see how good you guys are at guitar.

I play guitar, drums, a little bit of bass, piano (normally a keyboard though SYNTHESIZE!), some trumpet, and some really pitiful singing.

Dan, I accept your challenge.

I basically play anything with a keyboard on it. I think accordions are my favourite. I'm not so good with stringed instruments, but I play a pitiful amount of viola/violin and I know like 2 chords on the charango.

I bet an instrument competition would be pretty fun. You'd probably have to figure out on what the judging would be based though, because there are so many different instruments, styles, and attributes to be taken into account.

Sorry, I probably should have included flute and bass to my poll, but hey, other works to :)

I'd totally do that. I stink at guitar, but it would be fun!

I'd do it too, either on guitar or some other instrument if it was a multi instrument contest. Either way it would be lots of fun! :)

I play the violin. I also play the piano and sing, but I'm not very good at either of them...
