Anybody play a musical instrument?

Regarding Epiphone v. Gibson....no doubt the Gibson's are better guitars. But, the Epiphones are great guitars for the money. I owned a double-cut Les Paul and a traditional, in black.....and they are fabulous instruments. I sold them because they were better than I am,..... and now have a quilted butternut Epiphone Les Paul that is a very nice guitar. Originally Posted by timpage

I really shouldn't out myself

My Eccie handle says it all. I fell in love with the drums when I was a little kid. I’d watch the drummers at Italian weddings play the oom pa pa stuff and was transfixed. Later, as an adolescent, I idolized the older guys in town that played drums.

I was lucky to have loving, supportive parents that served as the vehicle for my aspirations. If it wasn’t for the old man buying me my first no-name snare drum then, later on, drum kit; I’d have never been able to realize this passion. Sadly, many talented kids in the world weren’t/aren’t as fortunate as I was.

Passed my grade 5 music theory and practical (trombone) ABRSM exams!

Haven't played either instrument in many years though (I stopped after high school).

I've considered starting to pick up something again like the guitar, piano, or cello again.

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...........wh at! No, I was just waiting for Whatzup to make a comment about Candy's fascination with the skin flute. Carry on.

For the record and it has been over 20 years; piano, trumpet, saxophone, clarinet and contra-bass. Always wanted to learn the violin or guitar. Originally Posted by JD Barleycorn

Onto the instruments, I have a Washburn Southwest series accoustic electric dred and a Gibson Les Paul. I ran the Washburn through a bass amp with the treble jacked up when I used to play rhythm and have a Fender Blues Deville that I use with both. I play one of them at least three times a week for an hour or so. I primarily just hack around for my own enjoyment since I have no more desire to be in a group.

Played the drums for a long time, Ludwig Octoplus kit, Paiste cymbals, also had timbals, and congas. Messed around with my mom's Hammond B3 also.

Dominguez javier accoustic. Nice phillipino classical. No longer in production. Small luthier shop in Cebu,
He retired or died, not sure.

Alvarez lawsuit dove ...mint.


60th aniversary strat...well played.


Fender accoustic, still my fav......cheap-o ....but love the action .



Recently picked up an accoustic pearl drum set from a buddy who upgraded.
I dig the drums, but feel an electric set would be better for recording . Much more flexible, quiet and never needs tuning. Tuning the drum kit is a bitch for a newbie.
