Any one play any instruments, I know there has to be some that do.
I play guitar and have been playing 14 years.. over half my life. The band that inspires the way I play I AC/DC, in the recent months I have been trying to change my style just a little bit to get more of an influence that you can hear than just Angus Young. It has been working too, and it is helping me develop my skills even more.
I have written a few songs as well. I have not shared them with anyone yet they are pretty personal, and not in the Rock genre, which surprised the one person that has seen me develop through the years, I played a little bit for him.

My favorite guitar I own is my Gibson SG its their "special worn brown" model I bought it my self when I was 17. Now I am awaiting the arrival of my new amp I just ordered.. A Marshall 1987x with a 1960bx cab.. they have to build the head though so it will be a 2 month wait.
Playing guitar is my passion.. I have played live in front of people many times and I love it.
I may post some pics of my gear..
Anyone else play anything?
 
I play the guitar but I am only a beginner, I couldn't tell you any details about guitars or anything..I just know a couple of chords and I am trying to find the time to learn some more.
 
I started with drums in elementary school, then guitar in middle school, then right after high school I started playing bass, which is the first instrument I really took seriously, and I love it. I went from doing lead vocals and lots of backing vocals on bass to just singing. The band I play for now I mostly sing and I play guitar for a couple of songs while other band members sing, which is really fun. It's in my signature if you wanna give it a listen.
 
I've been a trumpet player for almost 10 years. I have also begun playing the ocarina. Started three months ago. I have the same ocarina used in The legend of Zelda: Ocarina of time. I play all my video game music on it because I have tabs. Yes I can play the Song of Time and no, I will not play the Nyan cat song.
 
I will have been playing guitar for 23 years this coming spring. I can guess my way on just about any stringed instrument. I own a Fender, a Washburn and a Harmony (my first) acoustic, four knock off brand electrics, an Epi LP, an electric Yamaha 12 string, couple nylon string classical guitars and a Fender 5 string banjo. Few years ago I also picked up a set of harmonicas in all the major keys.

I used to be in a band after high school. We covered a lot of 60's and 70's rock though just about every tune was played through overdrive and we sounded like Canned Heat.

Lately I've been playing exclusively acoustic. I was working in a studio for my first album but shelved it because I couldn't find a few extra session musicians. I did record a rough demo on my own of the album and uploaded it to soundfolder.com. If anyone feels like giving it a listen, I'll post the link.
