Sticky: What instrument do you play?

[Vantineutrasictical]

I play bass mainly. I can play guitar, but i am certainly no super soloist. I also sing, but I've gotten a bit tired of mixed reviews from people. i can sing screamo really well from what i can tell ,but it's a different kind than maybe Opeth....
Think of Alexi Lahio and Marilyn Manson combining their forces. That. But I've gotten a lot of good reviews that sounded a bit false. Usually from strangers, family, friends. But some of my friends confuse me by saying i sucked jokingly in a not jokingly way. And then my cousins (who really are no longer my cousins due to divorce... unless they still are D=) confuse me by saying they can sing (my cousin Victoria has an apparently Beautiful voice, which is actually like a banjo scraping against bumpy plastic and soft metal. That bad, seriously) So i have no idea how good i am if that's AMAZING!!!111!1!1!1!1!

Oh, i also can also play basic beats on drums and i can come up with a 3/5 star song on the piano.

I play flute, guitar (i have 2 acoustics and 1 electric), piano, drums, bass, and i'm learning accordion (not full sized) and ukulele (a couple of really, really, really cheap ones). i think i've tried a piccolo a few times. i'm not too horrible of a singer.
i like to write stuff sometimes, but i love to play and transpose green day songs to various instruments (haha because i am that obsessed with them) biggrin

I play guitar, I used to play the flute pretty well, I play a little keyboard, I play violin (which I played for an orchestra for 3 years), and I play string bass. (which I play for an orchestra now)

Acoustic Guitar 6 years playing, Starcaster Fender. 3nodding

[Kitsune Prisoner]

I have some random Bach student trumpet, but I either want a Bach Strad or a Yamaha Xeno. I've heard both, and I'm still unsure about which one I want. ><
Yeah I've been playing trumpet for 3 years, going on 4. : D

[TheArmyPhoenix]

I play the violin, piano (learning), trumpet(learning), guitar (learning), and I sing.


I don't have pictures available so I can't post any.

And I don't really have a favorite brand. I take what I can get since instruments are generally really expensive... ^_^"

[jhecka02]

You ready for this list?

Trumpet
Cornet
Flugel Horn
Piccolo Trumpet
Bugle
Baritone/Euphonium (there is a difference)
Tuba
French Horn
Piano
Organ
Voice (Bass II usually)

I know the first 5 are all very similar, but any experienced brass player will tell you that they are all different beasts to tame, the picc and the bugle especially. As far as piano and organ go, I took lessons for a while but am basically self taught, terrible with the feet though. I'm not coordinated enough to play organ very well. I normally sing the lower Bass parts, but I did sing Tenor once. The higher notes were a bit of a stretch. xd

As far as owning instruments I have:
2000 Holton Studio Model Trumpet
1941 Holton Military Cornet (pride and joy)
Amati (sadly not a crascilice) flugel horn
an unlabeled bugle which I am trying to Identify, I picked it up in a pawn shop in Germany
I also have a studio height upright piano, I can't think of the brand off the top of my head though
I'm currently looking to buy another trumpet, most likely a Bach Strad LR or a Yamaha Xeno

no pics now, but I'll definitely get some of the cornet, the engraving is gorgeous

make sure you try them, not just listen to them. Accent makes some decent horns for a fair price, I found them to have a bit to much back pressure for my taste though. Holton also makes a great pro horn, especially the Symphony from the 70's, if you're into vintage horns. Jupiter also make a great horn, plays a lot like the xeno but has a ton of accessories and is fairly inexpensive.
