Anyone Here Play An Instrument?

Yep, I've played guitar on and off since I was a kid. Also can drum and play bass.

I can fake my way through a bass.

Sax, flute and clarinet. I'm self taught on the piano, but I'm still a rookie all things considered. I can read piano scales and understand them, but I learned what I did by ear and went from there by using my brass classical style training. See below.

I played flute and clarinet in grade school. When I got to middle school and started performing with the high school kids, I was the ONLY boy who played clarinet or flute (surprise, surprise). So, instead of being smart and taking advantage of being the only rooster in a hen house, I talked with my band director and he said I should consider saxophone. He had me work a couple of weeks on a loaner alto sax to get everything down and I picked it up almost instantly. He knew money was tight for me and mum so he knew I couldn't buy a new or used sax and he couldn't let me take the loaner home, so he made me a deal. If I'd join the brass section, he would give me his old, personal baritone sax. I'd be responsible for the mouth piece, pad replacements, cork fixes and reeds, but I agreed and he gave it to me. Played it all through school. Still have it.

I've since shrunk down to a tenor, because the sound is higher, but not quite alto...nice smooth jazzy sound, and it can play low and high enough for when I would do church orchestra stuff, and I've taken to transposing some rock music to sax and tenor fits best.

I'm thankful for him giving me that instrument because music means a lot. I could have done clarinet, stayed, and just marched through the motions to get band practice as an essentially free period. But I got the sax, and as a result I still play...though not as much as I'd like, admittedly.

I play guitar.

No. I played violin in 4th grade and tried learning guitar a bit when I was 17 but I’ve never really played an instrument to the point where I’ve gotten any good.

I've learned a few songs by Reba,Loretta Lynn and Miranda Lambert.

I don't play religiously or anything though.

Guitar for fifteen years, drums for two. Those are the main ones, but I've dabbled in the piano, bass, harmonica, ukulele, and recorder as well. I can generally finagle my way around any instrument put in front of me. I'm not saying to expert levels, but I can figure them out anyway.

I play drums a bit, I'm not that great but I can play along to some songs I like, great way to pass time and it's a good feeling when you get in the zone.

I think a lot of us are scared to say stuff like that on here now, in fear of getting reported or banned.
