Just like the title says what instruments do you play? I've been playing the piano since I was 6 years old (later digital pianos and synthesizers). Also, I try to play both electric and acoustic guitar, but I wasn't playing very well.
What about you?

I play the keyboard and piano since I was 14. I'm still not good at it even after all these years lol, probably because I spend more time playing by ear instead of learning the basics.

I can play the piano and the acoustic guitar (not very well) but I can play. I'm much better at the piano but also still probably not that good.

I play classical guitar, though it's been two years since I last practiced seriously. I play it from time to time, just to not lose this skill, but I'm definitely not seeing myself improve drastically anytime soon.

Yes it is. Vocals require training.

I've been playing the guitar for nearly 20 years, and I sing as well.

I can also play the drums, but it's been many years since I've played them. I've experimented with other instruments, like the banjo, mandolin, ukulele and piano accordion, but never got very far with any of them, as none of them could hold my interest like the guitar can, but I may try the piano accordion again in the future.

i used to play the tuba, but due to circumstances of not being able to be at band camp this summer, we had to break up
"I suffered all my life. No one ever truly loved me. No one ever truly cared about me. I only loved one thing in my whole life and that was Christina Menefee. But she was torn away from me. I tried to save myself with [student’s name], but she never cared for me. As it turns out, she made fun of me behind my back while we were together. And all throughout my life I was ridiculed. Always beaten, always hated. [...] I am malicious because I am miserable."

You don’t time to play but you have time to watch anime and browse the Internet EH?

——-
I’m like a 2/10 on the bass guitar. I play 3-12 times a week for about 30-60 minutes. I’m currently learning minor arpeggios from a book. Next are diminished and augmented (whatever that means)

One thing I don’t like is my E string buzzes a lot and my lower frets sound weak and have an underwatery sound. Also the bass sort of sounds like a fart lol.

I’m gonna keep on with it though since I don’t feel like starting over with another instrument and bassists are desired. I plan to join/start a band with other newbs as soon as I get a little better

I took piano lessons for several years, and drums for a couple years as well. I've also started getting into teaching myself guitar, plus I played clarinet in my 9th grade school band.
Some of you never watched Bakugan Battle Brawlers on TeleToon in 2008 and it shows.

Took private lessons up until level 5 piano, kind of just taught myself since then. Been playing since 8 years old, so it's been 14 years now hot damn. Wish to learn the acoustic guitar when I can find some time.

I’ve been playing the drums for 5 years and I play in a band. There are still many things that I struggle with, mainly stuff with my left hand, but I’m pretty happy with my progress. I also play the bass guitar (almost 1 year) and used to play the keyboard a few years ago, though I want to pick it back up again.

Standard instruments? No, but I can do xylophones, grasswhistles and harmonicas. I also wanna try this unconventional instrument with the flat rocks that I saw on YouTube last summer. It looks like a xylophone, but primitive-looking if I remember correctly.

So yeah, I'm the kind of guy who likes primitive or exotic instruments.

In Middleschool & Highschool I played the flute. I used to be part of the school band, but after I graduated and started art school I stopped. Idk if this counts as an 'instrument' but I still want to learn how to use a DAW & synths

I started playing the trumpet in 4th grade. In HS I played in the classical/jazz band. In the 10th grade I added the baritone, and the following year (at my music teacher's suggestion, i.e. he begged me to) I began playing the french horn. I haven't played the latter two in years but a couple of years ago I dusted off my old trumpet. My son began playing the trombone then, and we practice together.

I wanted to learn the guitar right after I started college and even hired a tutor. Problem was that he sucked at teaching and I sucked at playing, so yeah...that dream of being the next Jimmy Page died rather quickly.

I was in the same boat as you.I played the flute in a school band for four years. I participated in school concerts, marching band competitions, and school football games. During the football games, I played in the bleachers during half time and quarter time.

I remembered playing harmonica, recorder, glockenspiel (German xylophone) when I was younger too.

I started with guitar 8-9 years ago or so, but then transitioned to piano/violin which I have been practicing for about 2.5 years now.

I got mainly inspired by popular jRPGs like Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Pokemon etc., and also some anime like Naruto and One Piece.

I use to play the violin. I really regret not occasionally playing it. I feel like having the ability to play an instrument is really cool. I also heard it helps with like creativity or something.

I've played the piano since I was around 12, I'm 18 now. Mostly classical but sometimes if I see a really good anime, I'll learn the song.
