(un)Musical Instruments?

[Azza Dutt]

Anyone else here play a musical instrument of any description?



I was lead guitarist in a band up until about May of this year, then I moved to London. Been playing guitar for about 4 years seriously and am self taught. Before that I'd had a few lessons at classical guitar. Saving for an acoustic an when I have one I'll post up some recordings

I tried to learn the Guitar, but I find it too hard. So I gave up.

I am not really interested in instruments..

Dude the guitar is like the easiest instrument to learn, but it just takes a bit of practice to get started. After you have the basic techniques down it's just a case of speeding everything up and you can play most stuff.



You should try learning again

I can only play Mary Had a Little Lamb on the piano.

Lucky that my school has a guitar class that goes from guitar 1 through guitar 4 and I'm currently in guitar 3 for the whole year

Sounds cool dude. I take it guitar 1 is like the lowest grade then it progresses up? If so you must be pretty darn good.

I played the trumpet in the sixth grade band. I didn't do seventh due to me not being able to read notes.

Got to Guitar Grade 3, but gave up years ago due to my involvement with certain websites - Cheers Incogneto =p.

I love making tunes up on the Piano so might start learning it.

I played the recorder in 3rd grade, trumpet 4th, 5th, and through my junior high career. Picked up the guitar in highschool. So that makes this my.. 4th year.

 

[SidVicious]

Bass, Guitar, Violin, Keyboard, Drums, Trumpet & i do a bit of singing.

 

[Incogneto]

Learning guitar.



I've got a cheap $75 one, but I'm working for a much better one (acoustic, of course)



I might consider electric when I get more familiar with frets.

I have always played the guitar, never had any lessons. I am not good or great, but I am okay enough to entertain myself and have a fun hobby. I still enjoy playing, but it's less of a passion than when I was a teen.

Can play some but pretty shit at it.

We had a bit of a break with the site, so most threads appear dead Don't let it stop you from posting!

Does slapping my pencil against the desk while I go through spreadsheets count?

I once got myself a guitar and it's just lying on the chair and each time my friends come over someone grabs it and holds it - feeling awkward putting it away because they dont want it to fall over. So there's always someone trying to play on it. So I leave it on the chair.
