Thanks

Piano and bass are my main ones.

A great way to relax and de-stress.

Paper Town Central, Essex.

Bass, lead, acoustic, banjo, ukelele and mandolin.

I can also hold good rather on the tubs too.

Been in 3 bands and also do backing vocals and was a bass session player for some well known bands and groups.

All good fun but I play for pleasure only now.

I know when I've had my day...

I can play guitar

I can use a piano, but I'm no pianist.

I can use a bass, but I'm no bassist

I can use the drums, but I'm no drummer

And I can use a small collection of other instruments, such as Sax, Bouzouki, Didgeridoo, Ukulele... but I am not an actual player of these instruments, just use them sometimes when recording.

Guitar, albeit I haven’t played one since 2008.

Was in a local band in my early 20s, did loads of local gigs and a few elsewhere, had some press coverage and featured on a couple of commercial releases.

I played bass in a few bands for years. Did some pretty decent festivals and supported some fairly big acts.

Don't play much any more nowadays though. Miss it sometimes

Guitar, Bass, Drums, Keyboard, piano and a little bit of singing.

I could record Paranoid on my own playing all instruments and singing.

I played banjo, accordion and trumpet a few times.

Guitar is my main instrument, but can play some chord progressions and some solo on anything really.

Well, as long as I know where is the C4.

I can play guitar, bass, drums, keyboards, and a little bit of Sax. I have played everything except the sax in bands at some time, but I'm primarily a drummer these days.

outside of classical music, very few guitarists read music at all. Many will use guitar tab, but even then not generally sight reading in real time.

Violin. Piano but only because it was actively encouraged whilst I was doing my grades.

I'd love to learn the cello. That rich timbre resonates within my very core but I don't think I have time now to learn another. One day maybe.

I played bass in a few thrash and punk bands when younger but now just acoustic guitar and sing badly! Just finished Landslide & Fix you. Also learning classical/flamenco which is nice coming from bass.
