Members heartstrings Posted May 16, 2008 Members Share Posted May 16, 2008 My main instruments are guitar and 5-string banjo. But I also play a little mandolin, violin and bass. A very good instrument to start out on, is the mountain dulcimer. They have a beautiful, sweet sound, are super easy to learn and you will be playing tunes in minutes.

Members hspeer Posted May 16, 2008 Members Share Posted May 16, 2008 I play the piano. I've been playing for about 20 years and took lessons for 15. It's my only instrument, but I really enjoy playing both by music and by ear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Kayla Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 So I have decided to buy a French Horn. Lord willing I will buy one next week. I would like to pick it back up again, the folks at my church have been hounding me to do a special like I used to in High School but I borrowed my instrument from the school at that time...so I never actually owned my own. If the funds come in and I get the right price I will, anyone know someone selling one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Salyan Posted June 10, 2008 Moderators Share Posted June 10, 2008 Piano, organ (working on), and hoping to learn the harp -- it's in the mail! For those aspiring harpists I saw earlier, have you ever heard of Harpsicles? They are very plainly made harps (look quite ugly until you get used to them), so they are cheaper than usual. I have on order a Black Fullsicle. It has all the levers, and it only cost me CAN $730. Rees Instruments makes them in the States. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SweetCharity Posted June 10, 2008 Members Share Posted June 10, 2008 I play the flute, piccolo, oboe, clarinet, trumpet a little, and piano. My sister and I seemed to have split the music talent; I can pick up any instrument and learn how to play it in a split second but my singing voice is horrendous, she on the other hand has never been able to play an instrument but has the voice of an angel.

That's great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members anime4christ Posted June 12, 2008 Members Share Posted June 12, 2008 Can't believe I forgot to mention here that I play guitar. So far, I can do rhythm, fingerpicking (using chord shapes, not melody), and solos. I wanna learn to be able to play melody along with harmony. So far I'm not too good at that.

Members IM4given Posted June 12, 2008 Members Share Posted June 12, 2008 Does a kazoo count? I am terrific on a kazoo! I can even improvise with a comb and a piece of tissue if I need to. I taught my VBS ckass how to play that instrument one year and we played a song for the last day! :clap: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
