What instruments do you own? (and what do you plan on getting next?)

[jeh LAH nee]

I'm new here, so I thought I'd break the ice in the musician's forum... what instruments do you currently own? I've been playing guitar since about 2000 and I own:

2001 Taylor 414CE
2001 Martin D35
???? Dean 12 string (performer SE12 I think, it was used)

[Fool]

Hello

I've got:

Takamine AN15, which I got cheap 'cos it has a tiny little laquer crack from when the pickup was fitted. That's one of those Takamine pickups, pretty much identical to the fishman.

Ibanez S470, quite an old version of that model, plays nicely though.

A cheap Freshman electro/acoustic which sounds lovely unplugged.

Three random classicals, one of them's quite nice but very old and in need of some tlc. One of them is a tiny one from when I was 8 and refused to learn guitar.

An encore strat replica (handed down from my big brother! hehe)

Another encore guitar, like, even worse than the strat, which only has one humbucker pickup and sounds like crap.

A hohner (think that's it) electric that's in pieces and no good for anything at the moment.

A Casio digital piano.

A harmonica.

And my only amp is a Roland Cube30.

Wow, I didn't realise I had so much stuff.

If anybody's interested in buying any of this, other than the Takamine, do let me know!

Fool, that's a lot of instruments!

I only have 1- an acoustic guitar (just a beginners). I've been playing since last December.

[PenguinBoy]

recorder, saxaphone, 2 harmonicas, 1 guitar.

and i'm planning on getting an acoustic di box...

[cille]

This is my newest baby:



+ my voice + + studio mic

+ A couple of guitars - a nylon string given to me and an electric that I found, but I can't really play them

+ our household also recently bought one of Paz Lenchantin's bass guitars at an online auction

edit: Wait a minute, how could I forget my first love:

^taught me how to play and compose - I don't play him anymore but i still technically own him...

2nd edit:
ok, i also have a half moon tambourine, heavy as hell but *hot* in the 80'ies

[eamo_rice]

A Silver-headed Yamaha flute

an old restored fiddle

a Casio Keyboard (was for a-level composition so not really used much now)

a cheap crappy acoustic guitar i bought to teach myself on and gave up after a couple weeks

several tin whistles in various keys and tunings - I've got 3 'D' whistles which each have a different tuning!

next buy: a wooden flute i think, wanted one for yonks but never been able to afford it.

[audity]

I have:

Ibanez AEL50SERLV (Acoustic-Electric Guitar)


Ibanez ARC100BS (Electric Guitar)


Yamaha Alto Recorder


M-Audio Keystation 49e Midi Piano


Nine will be buying me a Guild F30

[knives!]

mid 9o's taylor 514ce (this guitar is the closest thing i have to a girlfriend right now.

yamaha f-460 (yes, i know. but it actualy sounds quite good and thats kind of what i started on)
takamine
baby taylor
frankenstein telecaster (my friend who owns a guitar shop put it together for me)


woo! there's another tele i'd like to get, but it will be a while. and i'm a little bit mad for that taylor i picked up so i think thats the only acoustic i'll use for quite some time.

oh musicians like you? hmm.. maybe they're over in the humorless self-inflated egos thread..

[wanderer]

Well right now I have a random array of instruments.

I have my Yamaha Euphonium, Bach Trumpet, Conn Trombone, Takamine EG-240 my acoustic, Ibanez AE-28( I don't really remember the model number) for my electric I also have a Yamaha Keyboard and some off brand Mandolin.

I want an new electric guitar I just have no idea which one I am thinking about getting.................ooo and I'd love to get a decent mandolin.

If I were to buy an electric guitar, i'd get a Danelectro DC-3. It looks amazing, sounds amazing and it is relatively cheap, especially compared to the 'bigs'. I almost bought one fro 750$, but a lucky bastard got it before me, and that was the end of my career as a guitar god. Then I saw it in a Led Zeppelin concert footage. Grrr.

Of mandolins, my rumanian Hora is perfect for a first mandolin: its decently made and costs less then 200$. I don't know wheteher its available in the US, though.

I have always been curious about Danelectro guitars but I hadn't heard that much about them and I don't know anybody who has one.

That was a joke...right?

[Five Leaves Left]

i have a not so good acoustic guitar (aria, not sure of the model) an alright electric guitar (epiphone) a pretty nice trumpet (bach strad.) and 2 harmonicas, both G one hohner marine band and one blues band. i'd love to get a hang drum (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjIW_lByX2Y , check it out if you've never heard of them they are unbelievable) but i may not have the money, but i imagine my next instrument will be some sort of hippy (for lack of better words) instrument that i get this summer probably a wind instrument maybe percussion

i know, they have such a haunting sound.. and you can play them so many ways you can play chords, or lay them in your lap and play them slide guitar style, or even set them up like a little cello and use a bow.. i think i could play it since the strings and notes are similar to violin

i love folk instruments, i saw two guys on youtube that play dulcimer and a bowed psaltery together and they sound really good
