Is there anyone on this forum that plays a intrument?

I play bass and gutair, most in a 50's and 60's band, but sometimes in a Beach Boys band and sing.

If you do, what do you like to play and sing?

is there anyone on this form that plays a inserment.
..Yes .. but i was told that i would go blind and that my palms would become hairy so i stopped ... then started ... then stopped .. then started .. and the eternal struggle goes on :lol: :twisted:

soz bro .. im about to get out of here and got that Friday feeling :wink:

I tried learning to play bass for a while but got bored so tried electric and got bored .. now i just strum a few tunes on my acoustic but i do love it , nothing takes boredom away like sitting there just simply strumming along to your favourite tunes or making up lil' songs of your own :D .. " Happy Dayz " :D

(im more of a scratch dj kinda dude and my instrument is a set of technics 1210's but that doesnt really qualify for what your asking :wink:)

Have a good weekend my man & all 8)

Yeah, I see what you mean :oops:

OK......I play 4 string bass and 6 string elecrtic and classical.

I also have a piccolo bass, which is a short scale bass and the strings go from 0.55 to 0.18 so it's really good for chords and arpeggios.

I used to have an Ibanez 8 string bass which was great.....swapped it for a muddy fox mountain bike :?

Dec, '69 Les paul..........lovely!!!!
