Viola> violin.


Seriously, with my big hands, I prefer the wider finger spacing. Plus it doesn't sound like a cat being murdered.

My next investment (for an instrument) may be a theremin.

I could also probably pick up a dulcimer or two next time I head to the flea market for fairly cheap - but those really aren't that weird of an instrument. Pretty much everyone I know has a dulcimer.

I always wanted to play: Hurdy Gurdy, Harpsicord(real, not electronic), and Church Organ(same).

Obviously, none of the 3 are feasible.

I made a frankenstein guitar with an old fender squire. i basically attachted sitar strings on the top of it, while leaving the guitar there as well. It is alot of fun and looks like the devil crapped it out.
