Who here has/currently plays an instrument? I have never admitted this on a forum, and I haven't played in about a year but I know how to play the handbells.  The church I belong to has a handbell choir. It was active for many years long ago, then dispersed for many years, and a few years ago it returned. I, along with my sister, mom and dad were part of the "new" handbell choir at my church. Unfortunately it dispersed but it returned again a short time ago but with a all-youth ensemble. |
I was just uploading a picture to start a thread like this... A couple of mine. Taylor 410CE Rover RM-75 Been playing the guitar for about 9 yrs and just picked up the mandolin in the last 6 months. I can half way play banjo but havnt picked one up in quite awhile. Yes, I come from a bluegrass family..

I would like to get another guitar or bass, and start playing again, but I'm not sure I have the time. I sold my gear years ago when I was young and poor, and now I regret it. I did sell my Ampeg SVT-II bass amp, GK speakers, and early Ibanez Soundgear bass to a good friend who is a talented musician, and he puts both to good use, and takes care of them. My two Kramer guitars and Crate half stack, I don't miss so much. I played trumpet and clarinet in elementary school, but never took to wind instruments like I did the strings.

Same here.

I don't have any pics, but I play: Guitar Some Mandolin. If you play guitar, this is the easiest instrument ever to learn to play basic chords with. Some keys--I fool around. I do sequence via tracking, so I add bit by bit. I can't really play with two hands. Hand-drums. I LOVE this shit. So much so that I keep LP Aspire Congas in my livingroom  I've also fooled around on a lap dulcimer, and I'd like to pick one up. I mainly do electronica via a couple of DAWs, through a variety of MIDI controllers. I do all of my own synthesis, and I love ever bit of it. |
I like the 5150 heads. They fucking rock!  Does Peavey still make those?
|
They do make them, but they are the 6505 series now. Since Eddie seperated from Peavey, they can't use the 5150 trademark anymore. However, from what I understand, Peavey owns the entire circuit design of the 5150 series. The 6505 is internally identical, just the name is different. |
 We added a LesPaul and sold the SG to the guitar player of Monster Magnet. I try to never sell a guitar but it was sold to help fund a guitar amp purchase. We have a Marshall JCM900 1/2 stack, a Mesa boogie single rec 1/2 stack, Fender Bassman 100 watt head and cab and a set of Pacific drums with A custom cymbals. Ill try to get some new pics of the band room. My playing days are over except for a little acoustic or classical while sitting on the couch. My two sons are carrying the torch. The 15 yo just started his first band as a drummer, the soon to be 18 yo is a guitar player in 2 bands but started out as a drummer in a couple of other bands. Both the kids play straight-edge hardcore music.

What guitar is this? |
I know, they have been multiplying while I sleep  Actually, just experimenting, don't normally have them all hooked up like that. They are all cheap too, the white BOSS on the right is the most expensive at $99 (Noise Suppressor). The rest are all less than $40. |
