Play any instruments? *would you like to? (if you don't)

NumberNineDream · 09-23-2009, 01:57 PM

I want to play some classic guitar before going to electric bass. at least to know what I'm doing.

Never felt that bass was underrated, it seemed obvious that it's a stunning instrument.

I'd love to learn how to play the ukulele.. I've heard it's a pretty easy instrument to manage, and has produced some of the most heavenly tunes on the planet.

^ Mm. Not to mention it doesn't take up too much space. xD

Right you are, and my little hands might actually be able to reach all the strings comfortably.

Aww. ^_^ You should learn.

And then write a song about how wonderful I am.

if i could i would just beat the **** out of drums all day long. they're like the purest form of music just because of the way they match up with the heartbeat.

in reality, it would seem i was born to play guitar. despite not knowing the names of any chords and having no formal or informal training whatsoever i've had no trouble playing music that satisfies my ears.

For me it was fairly easy to go from guitar to the ukulele, but I don't know if you need calluses to play it without your finger tips going through torture. Some of the chords in the standard tuning only require one finger so, yeah you can pretty much come up with something that is actually pleasing to the ears within the first 5 minutes of picking it up.

I play bass. I attempted to play guitar prior to the bass, but the concept of chords overloaded my mind.
