I'm curious to know if any of our other members play any instruments and care to show them off.

The first guitar I ever owned, a nice red Ashton.

My original 1970s Burns Flyte electric, gotta love that low action and so much better then the more recent remake of this model. And yes that is a bass case on an electric, what of it?

I really don't know much about this bass (such as what brand it is) except that my uncle used to play it back in the 80's and that it's covered in Bulldogs stickers who, evidently, are a fucking crap football team.

The old Washburn, not a bad guitar though it needs new strings.

Had I been able to find it at the time, the neck of this Aria would have been pictured with the rest of the guitar. Laughing

And lastly what guitar collection is complete without an amp? No less a Fender...

I actually own another acoustic but not playing it that much I can't even remember the brand of it let alone where I left it last.

OH!

I can play the cat!

Really, I put the tail of the cat in my mouth, hold him like a bagpipe, and by biting the tail and squeezing the cat's body at just the right intervals, I've managed to make an actual song!

Okay, not really, but that's the closest to any instrument that I've been able to play. I'm VERY music illiterate.

I purchased an Ibanez guitar "starter pack" awhile back:

Can't play much with it though, and since I didn't bring it with me to school (for space reasons) I haven't improved at all lately. Sad

I haven't played seriously in 2 years but I do intend to start up again, before that I had been playing for about 3 years. Ohh and BTW emmzee, awesome yell.

Bridgecraft starter. I consider myself halfway decent.

Not a bad guitar TD, though I will still love my Flyte above all others. Shit-Eating Grin

I play the violin. Although I don't have any pictures to show at the moment. It's a prett instrument. The wood work is really nice.

You’re talking about the Stradivarius copy right? You should take some pics and show it off.

I have, but not of the whole thing. Maybe sometime I will, though I'm not really interested in taking any pictures of it. Maybe just for show, I might.

You took a picture of a spoon but you don't want to take one of a violin? I just don’t get you Canadians… Russians… photography people.

Hey, if I had a decent digicam I'd go all camwhore everywhere!

As it is I have a VERY sub-standard digicam and a main comptuer that doesn't recognize Mass Storage devices [one thing wrong with Win 98 SE.... No Plug and Play]

Well yeah I did notice that, I wasn't trying to be very artistic, I was just taking some shots so that people could see my guitars but if you've got some more artistic shots I see no reason why you can't use those if you wish.
