I've been off and on the violin since I was six. It has a pick-up amplifier that admittedly I barely used when playing. I play the piano and recently moved to a Casio CDP-S100 rather than a standard piano. I love playing with the electric piano voices.

I've been playing guitar for 4 years now, and the first reason I got into guitar was purely because I was bored, and then I followed the advice of my online friends and got my first guitar: Yamaha's FG800. Because I had no prior knowledge of the subject, I started with the basics of music, and then I learned guitar techniques through various guitar lessons on YouTube. It's been 4 years now, and although I'm not as good as those guitarists who play great, I can still hold my own as a personal talent.

I'm a huge fan of the ukulele and have been playing it for a few years now. It's a small and lightweight instrument that's perfect for traveling or playing on the go. I love the sound it produces, which is both mellow and cheerful at the same time. One of the best things about the ukulele is that it's relatively easy to learn, making it a great instrument for beginners. I'm constantly discovering new techniques and songs to play on the ukulele, which keeps me motivated and inspired.

i've been playing guitar on and off for about 18 years and impulse bought a nice looking les paul a little while back and i can't put it down

i recently moved to a new city and only brought what could fit in my little car, and that meant i didn't bring any instruments outside of a usb midi keyboard and i miss my guitars back home every day but i'm hoping to make it back to get them soon! i'm finding all kinds of new inspiration and am really into playing funk and city pop style music even though my roots are in punk & rock

Newest addition to my increasingly large instrument collection. Doing it as a "rent-to-own" program with only $25 a month. It's got a few dings though that I wish we went over in the store but oh well, it plays beautifully.

Nice! Are you learning it? I had to learn the basics of violin in school and coming from a bass (and guitar) background, I had to get over the initial shock of not having frets (so having to remember to place my fingers absolutely correctly on the fingerboard). And that the strings are GDAE. And a few other things, like how to tune it properly, lol.

My boyfriend plays violin quite well though.

I play mandolin as well which uses the same tuning and has a very similar scale so the only hard part has been getting use to the bow. I got this cool "First Fret" sticker thing which puts imaginary frets on the fingerboard so I can learn and memorize the positions.

I've seen those stickers! I never had to use them as I used my boyfriend's violin which has a well-worn fingerboard. So I would place my fingers where his fingers had been before, haha. Getting used to the bow will take a couple of weeks with regular practice, especially learning to hold it properly at the frog. Also make sure you use the rosin so you'll be able to make a sound!

LoathsomePete

I was a little overzealous with the rosin and now my strings are caked with the stuff.
