My beast

Epiphone Les Paul, sanded down, woodstained and gutted. Electrics replaced with an EMG 81, Machine heads replaced with gibsons. Strings are ernie ball superslinky

Also have a Fender strat with a seymour dunc in the neck. Play blues on that with ernie ball hybrid slinkys.

And a 1970s Kent classical that I play jazz on when I don't feel like sludging it up.

I have a piano and sax (alto).
My sister has a cello and flute...
cba to find the digital camera though. so you can imagine them.

I can play "Hot cross buns" on the recorder... THROUGH MY NOSTRIL! :D

na he just mistook you for a girlie ;) :P :D

very nice people :)
I really want a piano. Cant afford it.
Im gonna start building effects units as soon as i can be arsed to go up maplins.
Im prolly gonna have a go at rying to embed them into an old encore i have in my room. could be interesting. If i ever do this mod i will take pictures and post them.

Squire Artist Series Tom Delonge strat, will post pics in a sec. may have to take it into college tommorow for a play during my computing lesson ;)

here's mine...

My Trumpet (cheapo horrible thing that I only got cos I had to give the school one back)

http://tumble.krisl.net/images/trumpet.jpg

My Flugel Horn (18th birthday pressie - worth about £1200 :eek: )

http://tumble.krisl.net/images/flugel.jpg

And my Tenor Horn, which isn't really mine, but I play it occasionally in the village band..

http://tumble.krisl.net/images/tenor.jpg

we have a piano in our house about the price of a reasonable sized family car...and only one person actually plays it...I hate favouritism.

p.s. my 'instrument' is so big it won't feasibly fit on this forum, sorry but its true.

and yes, I had to make a joke about that - so there

My hurdy gurdy!

http://server3.uploadit.org/files/181103-bigpic21.jpg

http://server3.uploadit.org/files/181103-biggurdy.jpg

If you don't know what it is, its a sort of violin with a rosined wheel instead of a bow, loads of strings (some of which drone) and an unfixed bridge on on string which buzzes when you turn the wheel a bit faster. Ends up sounding something like a violin with a bagpipe drone along with a mad kazoo player adding the rhythm.

Hand built specially for me :D

I would take a picture of mine but its a bit hard to get a picture of an air guitar, but the little baby gives me many of hours of fun everyday!:eek:

Oh man I love them.... got a piece of music somehwere from god knows when - and it's a pair of Hurdy-Gurdys giving it loads... great fun to listen too :D

@ Tumble. Compress your jpegs!! You almost blew up my isdn card!!! :P

@ spikegifted. mmmmm jaz bass. yum yum.

@ ZeroTheHero. Wtf is that! Your gonna have to record an mp3 of it or something, i have no idea what that sounds like! Looks crazy!



Anyway.

Hurdy Gurdys rule...
We just got a new piano, got rid of ur 110 year old Bluthner beast...
now got a Welmar thingy.
I was thinking about getting a clarinet as well.

I've got a Fender something £200 guitar. I've been playing for about a year. Can do most of the Kittie and Linkin Park songs but have never had any lessons, as such.

I've also a Trumpet. I've played for, oh, 13-14 years. Cost an awful lot of money, for such a small-ish thing, but it is pure craftsmenship.

ive got a surf green tom delonge stratocaster
