I'd say the keyboard which is an amazing piece of ignorance from whoever started this poll. Wouldn't call my skills with it particularly bad, or good. Guess they're serviceable to the type of music I write.

I'm a proud multi-instrumentalist.

Even though I haven't played violin in a while, play very little guitar, can barely read and have only played electric bass about a year, I do play bass and bowed guitar an AWFUL lot. Like, hours on end. However, my skill on all the instruments are average.

I really wanna get into woodwinds though. :\ I can get a similar sound to a tuba with bowed electric bass, but that's too hard to control. v_v

I know how to play guitar,..it isn't all its choked up to be.
But i'd REALLY like to learn how to play a piano...

Personally, I've never had a will to be a multi-instrumentalist. There are so many ways you can play a singular instrument, it's difficult for me to imagine wanting to pick different things up.

Albeit, a large portion of the musicians I adore are multi-instrumentalists, and I respect it deeply.

I don't know, as a player, I guess I just like the blatant power in keyed instruments. Out of an 88 keyed instrument you get an amazing range of tones that very few instruments can top. Plus, I like the simple no friction approach of "press the key, get the note".

i play drums, guitar, sing, bass, violin, mandolin, piano, harmonica.. anything I can get my hands on. Next is Banjo, or Saxophone. I need to learn a real wind instrument soon, so probably sax first.

Guitar, drums, keyboard/piano, bass.. not really intending on learning anything else.
