Does anyone play another instrument?

[BassZach]

Like the title says,I'm wondering if any other people here on talkbass play another instrument besides bass.
I play some keys aswell as bass,I'm a huge fan of The Doors.

 

[Shmone]

I play the trumpet, I actually started on it and than added the bass.

 

[BassZach]

Trumpet is dope,my junior high jazz band teacher played trumpet and I thought it was the greatest thing ever until I found out he was a drummer,I was amazed at how good he was at drums hes insane

 

[petersenbass]

I play a little trombone still. I did the marching band thing in high school. It prepared me for reading bass clef.

I picked up mandolin and keys from being in a Led Zeppelin Tribute. After a show at 3rd & Lindslay in Nashville, Roger Daltry came out of the shadows and said we did a great job. I'll never forget it!

 

[BassZach]

Whoa,I probably would've fainted if Roger Daltry basically said we kicked ass.Thats awesome man

Studied classical clarinet pretty seriously until my early 20s. Some keys and harmonica too.

 

[Jimbob Jones]

Trumpet and (oh horror of horrors) I'm a passable guitar player too!

 

[Bassman18]

Blues harp (Harmonica) is my second instrument. Proper Chicago Blues harp style, not Bob Dylan or Neil Young style.
I play a bit of Dobro, Guitar, Banjo and Ukulele too, but i wouldn't say i'm great at them.

 

[Boira]

I'm taking piano lessons and also play gralla (Mediterranean medieval precursor of the oboe).

 

[etoncrow]

I started playing drums in 1959, banjo in 1972 and bass in 1982.

 

[Rip Topaz]

Obviously bass is the main instrument, but i also play guitar, drums, dulcimer, mandolin, a little keys....I have a home studio. It helps to be able to play extra stuff.

 

[i_got_a_mohawk]

Play a bit of guitar and try my hand at the harmonica.

 

[Big Daddy Mac]

Yes bass is the main instrument. I have played trombone, sax and clarinet in the past. I also play (yikes) guitar, mandolin, keys and can maintain a steady beat on drums for....a while, but I'm certainly no drummer.

 

[uethanian]

past: piano, pipe organ, trombone
current: electric bass, upright bass, nay (persian flute), ukulele

 

[EstrealLua]

Hmmm, I play flute. I love my flute~ Still trying to learn "Cannon in D". I love that song, so much. Some keys. Badly. Hey, I've come up with some decent songs on that ol' keyboard!
...I'll be playing French Horn next year for school. ;D

 

[shawshank72]

I can play drums and guitar also, wish I had some more spare time to learn the piano.

 

[derelicte]

i play acoustic guitar, electric guitar, bass guitar, and keyboard.

i'm also learning to play drums

 

[BassZach]

I've always wanted to learn how to play blues harmonica aswell but it just seems so complicated.

 

[FromTheBassMent]

Guitar, dobro/lap steel, mandolin, keys, djembe. Man, when I was working on my MA in Ethnomusicology I played about two dozen instruments with a fair degree of competency... some of the instruments in the Javanese and Balinese gamelan orchestras I was REALLY good at. I've slacked off since those days!

 

[Laxed]

I play trumpet. I'm better at the trumpet.
Picked up bass because my youthgroup was looking for one.
I find the bass easier to practice (don't have to always be at full volume, etc.), so I find my self playing bass at home and the trumpet at school.
