How about it...what do you play - styles of music, instruments (and brand if you are an axe ho), amateur, pro, writer?

BTW, the skin flute doesn't count

I produce "underground" hip hop music. I mainly lift samples from old vinyl, but I also play the keyboard a little bit as well. I'd define my music as alternative contemporary jazz with a hip hop flair.

I have a myspace music page. If anybody is interested you can check it out here:

Yeah I play.I currenntly own An Ibanez rg220 An Ibanez Destoyer both six stings.I also have a fretless Yamaha bass four sting.I have a Fender princeton Chorus amp as well as a Fender Prosonic head and A Rock Pro 4x12 cabinet.I am thinking of buying some midgrade drums but that is a big maybe.
I have been playing guitar for 15 years and I would say with confidence not arrogance that I can play.
I used to play in a band and we played some odd and end shows but that was years ago.
I write all my own music and have forgotten more than I have writ lately I used to practice everyday but lately its been once a week or less.The creative tide is definetly at an ebb for now.
I would have to say my musical style is hardcore punk fusion jazz or something.I have spent too much alone time in my basement playing and I am getting strange.

I play a little guitar.
-Fender John Mayer Signature Stratocaster (Sunburst)
-Fender Standard Stratocaster (Arctic White w/ Maple neck)
-Martin 000M
-Martin OMJM hopefully soon
I play the strats through a Fender Blues Junior amp and I'm thinking about upgrading to a Deluxe Reverb. Pedals consist of a Boss TU-2 tuner, Keeley modded BD-2 blues driver, RMC wah, and a TS9 tubescreamer.
As far as the type of music i play its mostly hendrix/clapton/and attempting SRV stuff...so i guess pop/light rock/blues would define it. I'm a big heartfelt acoustic type of guy too. Good stuff.

I play a bunch of instruments, but would probably have an easier time reading Chinese than reading a musical note. I`ve been singing since I can remember, and play the guitar, the organ (the real one, hehe), accordian (tradition push-button style), harmonica (not that I consider that any feat), and have recently started dabbling with the fiddle. I would consider myself a singer ahead of any of the others, but am a decent guitarist (I`ve been playing for about 18 years, but mostly folk and coutry style stuff - I have gotten more into the acoustic alternative stuff over the past few years, but listen to and play almost everything). I also compose songs.

I have a 100 year old air organ I got from a church in PEI. I also have a few accordions and such, but my favorite toys are my guitars.

I have a 1970 Norman Studio 68 (hand made here in Quebec...beautiful sound), a Fender La Brea (first real guitar - if you can call it that), an Ovation 12 string, and a Tanglewood TW55NC - I use this one for banging around in the Irish Pubs - sound of a Taylor, price of a Takamine.

I am currently building a small USB recording system for writing and demo production, and plan to buy a new Taylor 414 without electronics for recording purposes (I was looking at a Hummingbird, but they are insanely priced and don`t sound as good). I might also snag a Tanglewood acoustic base.
