I used to play Drums for a couple of years, but only got to play at school as didn't have the money/space to get a drum kit at home, if I had one at home i'm sure i would have carried on playing...
I don't really play much, but when I occasionally feel like making a little music I have a keyboard, an ocarina, and a bass guitar called the Face Puncher.
I have a drumkit although i rarely play it... Im pretty handy on it but that could just be mans natural ability to bash the hell out of things.
Ive got a Premier Drumkit with some Zildjian symbols. My dads also in the process of making me some aluminium drumsticks but i could be an old man before i get them. My brother has a couple of Ibanez basses and theres a stratcaster guitar kicking about somewhere...
And that is why you hear people yelling FOR THE EMPEROR rather than FOR LOGICAL AND QUANTIFIABLE BASED DECISIONS FOR THE BETTERMENT OF THE MAJORITY!

I have 2 bass guitars, one of which is a cheap electro-acoustic, and 2 drum kits which I no longer really want. Can't really play well and don't play that often.

Never assume anything, it will only make an ass of you and me.

I play bass - I have a Warwick Corvette 5-string (OOP), and Ibanez RX305(?) 5-string, and a Fender Squire 4-string. I can play a tad of regular guitar, but don't currently own one. I used to play the trumpet in middle/highschool.
I don't currectly have any pics...my ex took the camera...

I have been a self-taught guitar player for about 22 years or so. I used to collect vintage Fender guitars, but sold most of them off. I now own and play this semi-regularly:
I also have two young sons who have started to play a little. We have cobbled together a music room of sorts in which my sons and I drive the wife crazy with our "band practice". We have worked our way up to "semi-tuned/semi in time" punk band...

Don't play as much now, but I know Alto Sax, Bass Clarinet, and Piano(who doesn't?).

I play a bit of 6-string but not very well, my guitar is way better quality than my skills justify! It's an Aria pro 2 js series super-strat. I noodle a bit on the bass but don't currently own one. In my last band i was the shouty man at the front and the one before i was beating the hell out of my beloved Premier XPK... I miss my drums loads... maybe Santa will bring me the lovely Mapex kit i've been drooling over...

My boy is currently center Marumba in the marching band and composes music ("We're the pit. We play more notes than you"). The front room at one time had a marumba, 2.5 octave, piano, and sound studio level electronic keyboard. We're hoping he makes state this year. We needs a scholarship yo so we can gets bank yo.
Sometimes when playing he makes the wiener dogs yodel. You ever hear wiener dogs yodel? Its...disconcerting.

I had a pit bull that couldclimb a tree. He had problems getting back down. Walk by tree-get swatted by paw. Hey!

Needs some Koalasthenics - the art of the drop bear Walk by tree-get swatted by paw sounds minor compared to Walk by tree-get fetching hat with big teeths and even bigger jaw muscles...
