Or rather, has seeing Mio inspired you to learn bass or guitar? I've had a bass for about 8 years and I just dusted it off recently.

I got 2 basses that have been sitting around for over a year now, I know how to play but I could use a refresher. I wouldn't say it's inspired me to learn but it's been making me think about breaking out a bass and learning some new stuff.

BECK had me started. I bought myself an Acoustic and started out, but then...I couldn't get the hang of it. And so, I left my Acoustic in its case and the case was left to rot.

However, seeing Yui and Mio, Mio especially, play and make it seem so easy, I might go and wipe the dust off and start playing once more. I sucked, but who knows, maybe those endless hours of playing Rock Band 2 would pay off.

well, i have a crap guitar from a junk yard a long time ago. never planned to learn how to play it. Maybe if i watch more K-ON! i might wanna get to play the bass. :/

i would like to start playin again(guitar that is). its just been sitn next to my computer for the past year, but everytime i pick it up and start playn, somehow my mood gets ruined and i place it back down. but watchn mio mite eventually change my mind 8)

Same here :D

And I haven't been playing for like six months! Thank You Mio :)

well, I was previously a member of band late last year but I kinda got busy with school work so I had to quit.

After I watched K-on (specifically, the ED)~ I suddenly got the urge to pick up my instruments again :3.

I've only owned a guitar...and that has a broken string right now. I never really bothered to learn much, but seeing stuff like this really makes me wish I put more work into it. Same with piano, but I never owned one of those growing up.

What kind do you have? I have a Fender Jazz Bass with a medium turquoise color and a white pick guard, 4 string of course. ^_^

I definitely already have a Bass, and I play. I kinda need a new one though. The one I have now is a standard black Fender Starcaster(the ones with the pointy-ish headstock that looks like this) with a standard white pick guard. Her name is Mihoshi, and she's kinda old.

And Mio playing Bass just makes her better.

K-On has inspired me to draw some cute highschool girls, thats about it.

Was playing classic guitar for a few months before I got bored of it. Maybe I will continue it now and eventually get to bass when I feel like it.

I've always thought it'd be cool to play the guitar or the drums, but to be honest with you I've never been good at playing musical instruments so it's sort of a no really.

Nothing special. Honey satin Schecter Stiletto Studio (4 strings of course :P) with active EMGs.

I'm thinking bout buying a J-Bass this summer.

As much as I love Mio, I don't think my dream instrument is a J-Bass at all. In fact, I think it's a white MusicMan StingRay(4-string) with a black tortoiseshell pick guard. Either that, or a Rickenbacker 4001 of some kind, preferably blue. Although if I ever get a J-Bass, and probably if I get a new bass guitar at all, I'm gonna name it after Mio.

By the way, points if you know what the blue Rick 4001 is from. More points if you know what the StingRay is from.

Sorry, but Mio doesn't have a P-Bass. It's Jazz :)

Blue Rickenbacker 4001? You're talking about FLCL? :D And do You know which famous bassist was playing on blue left-handed Rickenbacker 4001? He was mentioned on the show.

Hmmmmm....It's a Jazz? Everywhere I look tells me Precision....oh well.

At any rate, I want to say Paul McCartney...but there have been others. That guy from Metallica. And Lemmy.

But only McCartney was playing on left-handed (and blue) :)

This is true. +5pts for Enkidu.

Now, what about that MusicMan StingRay?

I already play guitar for seven years and I'm proud because my guitar can be considered the "guitar version" of Mio's Bass.
And here she is :3 http://www.drumcityguitarland.com/drumcitygl/stores/1/images/Fender/Fender%C2%AE%20%20USA%202008%20American%20Standard%20Stratocaster%20Rosewood%203-Color%20Sunburst%206-String%20Electric%20Guitar.jpg

I'd like to have a Gibson like Yui as well.
