Do you play any musical instruments?
I play guitar a little. Just wondering if DUers play music.

1. Yep.
I play a decent guitar, a passable piano/organ and the drums. (This is all rock 'n' roll, though. I'm no way near talented enough to play jazz or classical.)

5. So I could play guitar a
medium? Why not a huge guitar? I heard they're popular in Mexico.

6. Well sure I do.
As do many others here at DU.

I can pretty much play anything. Guitar, piano, drums......anything you don't have to blow into.

I just bash away until I get it right. And even then, I'll just keep bashing some more.

8. Guitar, banjo, mandolin, bass, and working on the fiddle
I don't claim to actually play the fiddle yet. But it's coming along.

14. I'm quite versatile
I'm really lousy on a variety of instruments: piano, synth, guitar, bass, and drums. I used to be lousy on Chapman Stick, lap dulcimer and hammered dulcimer, but I haven't played those in a long time so I'll have to work myself up to lousy again. I want to try to be lousy on mandolin, too, but haven't gotten around to it yet.

I adhere to the philosophy of "If it's worth doing at all, then it's worth doing badly". :)
