What other Instraments do you play?
« on: May 25, 2008, 08:10:26 PM »
Hi, I’m Ken and I’m new here.  :)

So I was wondering what other instruments do you out there play apart form guitar.

I come from a very musical family and I play piano/keyboard and a bit of saxophone, and the harmonica (but not very well)

Welcome to the forum Ken - I'm sure you'll love it, I know I do.

As far as instruments go I only play guitar - I really couldn't afford to get into another instrument!

I don;t play them as much as I used to (mostly as I can;t get all my stuff in a flat) but I used to gig a great deal playing Digiredoo, djembe, bougarabou, ashiko, conga etc

NB. I can actually play these things, I'm not just a middle class kid that went to Glastonbury once and got carried away with being "cultured"  :P

Asides from guitar I play Bouzouki (Tuned G'DAE, which I call 'Australian tuning'.). It's like a bass mandola but with a different scale length. I tune mine differently though (in 5ths).

I can also do some synthesizer/sequencer stuff providing my performance is cleaned up in a midi programme such as cubase and I have a good bank of sounds.

I can sing too but I'm not overly confident in my voice.

I can play tambourine and various bits of hand percussion but I chose not to as I'm not an octopus and what with playing the guitar that becomes somewhat inhibitive.

Just guitar and bass for me. Bass is my best instrument and where I am most at home but I play guitar in the band I am in. I do sing too and have got better over the years.

My main instrument is actually my voice, but my secondary is Guitar. I also play Bass, some keys, a tiny teensy bit of drums and I also dabble in anything else I can get my hands on.

I have been known to be fairly good at Violin, Cello, Double Bass, Bugle, Trumpet and a couple of others when I first picked them up at college. That means I've been able to hold a tune first time around on all these things in little jam sessions. If a mic or Guitar weren't laying around then I would pick up the nearest thing in the music department and give it a shot, sometimes with pleasantly surprising results, lol.  :lol:

I can play drums but only basic stuff. I want to learn bass but I find it really hard compared to normal guitar :(
