What else do you play? If anything

[I Need a six...]

Ok, so this is just for my own interest, people of talk bass, if you play something else what is it? I play tuba(and bass obiviosly) I like it low. If somone put a gun to my head, and said pick one! I'd say, pull the trigger.

Mr Emmerick? No I'm kidding, that's a pro I know. That's super cool, a lot people play bass 'cause the guitarist is better, you can tell by how they play. Good to see it the other way around.

These days it's just bass and guitar.
I used to play a lot of drums too, but it don't have the space to set up my kit until we buy a new house.

Tuba?! I would totally be in a band with you. I just wrapped up seven years of being a percussionist for a sixteen-piece jazz-funk ensemble.

I also play electric bass.

Actually, upright and electric. I'm in a jazz band that often has a tubist playing the bass trombone part, and it's a cool sound, especially when the bass part is a unison between bass, tuba, and bari.

I also play guitar and bagpipes regularly, and I sometimes dabble on piano at parties. As a kid I did all the high end clarinet exams, but I've forgotten most of it.

Cool man, I like the term percussionist, so much more sophisticated than "Drummer"

Bagpipes!? Sweet!

I play all your basic rock instruments and nothing else.

Including saxophone?

 

[moody]

I'm far better with bass than anything else.
I can play a few bits and pieces of classical guitar (took lessons for a few years)
dabble in electric but don't presently have one working
can manage to play along on keyboards.
I can get a sound out of a fife and play a bit of recorder and tin whistle.

I flat out can not play drums.
