I used to play the cello! Only for a year, five years ago. Completely forgot by now.

Now I'm a mean kazoo player.

I used to play the cello.

I wish I could afford to buy a new one and start playing again.

Used to play the piano too.

I play my CD player

I learned how to read guitar tablature so I could play a few songs on my acoustic guitar, which I bought JUST to play Silent Lucidity.

Bah, they just took the double bass idea from Metallica (who, as history often goes, probably took the idea from someone else. In doing so, they proceded to taunt them stating, 'Neener neener')

Hardcore percussionist (drummer).

I've been playing set for about 4 years, snare for about 5 years, and piano (as well as marimba and xyliphone) for about 7 years... My father is a percussion teacher.

Note there is no real difference between an electric guitar and acustic guitar. I play and own both. As well as an electric bass guitar. I'm also probably going to be getting an acustic bass sometime soon.

(note: The only difference between an electric and acustic guitar is sound, all playing tecniquies are the same, and the music to read for them is the same. We just gennereally say we play both to try and impress people that don't know there is no real diference between the two)

But it is harder to get up on the fingerboard for those high solo notes on an acustic.

Get an acustic with a cut out. Problem solved. But true you do have a point, course most acustics aren't made to handle that sort of thing.

I used to play the flute...and when I'm given enough time (and boredom), I can play something cool on the piano..../shrug.

My main instrument though is my voice. I sing.
