I have a guitar at my parents' home, and I play it sometimes when I go there. I also have a USB keyboard that I'm learning to play (at a painstakingly slow rate).

I've been learning to play guitar for about two to three years now (: I Love my electric, but I seriously need to get an acoustic that isn't just a learn-to-play acoustic, since I write my own stuff and am actually serious about playing O.o Mind, I can also sing (really well) while I'm playing my guitar, it's awesome (:

I own a couple of guitars, but I suck since my hands are so small. I really wanna get some new ocarina's or a ukulele.

Skin Flute..



lol, jk.
I couldn't pass that up.
I was honestly considering replying in a similar manner, but I ultimately decided against it, considering I'm still a newbie...

I played violin these past 5 years at the conservatory, and 1 year in philharmonic orchestra, but quited this year because of time (I spent more time on my computer after work, damn it !), and because I don't like other people earing what I'm playing/training ... it can be annoying to listen repeatedly to the same tune.
And also, because my teachers always preached for classical music (mozart, bach and all these people) and got predetermined ideas over the music I love :
game, anime, movie OST, even if it's orchestrated ... it's not good because it has "video game" in the name so it's sure a 8bit sound ! ahh so laaaaame ! only mozart is a real composer !

I really hate classical period

I didn't care learning classic, but they didn't care listening what I liked in return.


Anyway, my main teacher still tried ^^
My first year exam was B.T. (from Hack//Sign OST) (not me on this video), I played it with a piano professor. (I should replay it, now I've improved !)
I got only 1 (good) comment over the full judges and other professors, all the others seemed unpleased (sure, it wasn't mozart ! grrr I hate that guy XD).

Later, I tried with Bleach's Never meant to belong (not me either), but it was too hard after only 3 years of violin.
So I never bring the teacher another music I like.

But it's sooooo damn difficult to find violin score on Internet

All is done for Piano, or Arranged for piano, no real violin parts

Used to play the piano, I liked it... yet I didn't. It kinda felt like work more than anything else. Though I love rhythm games, so music is in my blood one way or another.

I play classical guitar, but I can play piano and violin too. I plan on playing electric guitar, but I'm not sure of that yet, it's basically the same.

I don't practice a lot, although I am really good at it, if I say so myself.

Singing my entire life.
Guitar (electric & acoustic, lead & rhythm) for about 20 years.
Bass (electric, want an upright like no other instrument) for about 15.
Drums on and off for about 10... but that's purely for shits and giggles.

Guitar/Bass/Vocals though, i've been in and out of bands for 15 years heh. Started in a Christian Alternative band (guitar/lead vox). Went into a punk/emo (bass/back vox). Then metal (bass). Then two acoustic/rock groups (guitar/lead vox).

I've stepped back from playing anything for about a year+, due to busy life. But i pick up the guitar every now and again. Hmmm. Mayhaps i'll pick it up today. It's been a while.

Heh, kinda like this:
