And I just bought one of these.* I have to say its not too hard to put things down by ear, for example I can already play a few guitar riffs on the keyboard...But I mainly use this as a controller for guitar FX.

I can play classical guitar - but not great at all.
Same with Piano. Some sonatas and short pieces.
Self-taught on both.

My piano was a cheap one I found in someone's garage. A bit old and tired now but a friend owns a Steinway upright I play on sometimes.
My guitar is a 25 year old Ibanez. I recently tried to get info and all I got was that it is fairly rare, has incredible sound and a replacement would be around $2000.

Me, I play bass. Here it is:




It's a Yamaha BB614. Great bass, I love it.













With my Amp (Behringer GX 108 Combo):





More shots of the Amp:





...And next to my cousin's acoustic guitar:





And that's it. Excuse the quality and size of some pics, but I took them with my cousin's Camera when I went at her house on Sunday, and it didn't have much battery left so...

Thanks! And it has active pickups (unless I'm missing something).

The sound is ok with my crappy Amp (need to get a new one soon), and fantastic with the 100W Ampeg that I tried at the shop. I looked at a BB614 and a RBX375 before, but they sounded very weak with the Behringer BX108...

That's the cool thing about the BB614 - it makes my Amp sound more powerful than what it is in reality, and thanks to the active electronics, it's very flexible. Plus, it's very light and to me, it has just the right size.

4 guitars,(samick imitation strat, TC electric slide, Heavily modified (also dissasembled) Mexican Fender Stratocaster, Costom hand built Classical guitar)
a practice amp from Samick, and a 1970 Kasino 50 watt amp. ive been playing guitar for 5.5 years

i also own an Alto Saxaphone, id need at least a month to recondition my mouth to play it again... but reading music, playing the notes/scales, or most of the songs i played... impossible to forget that 8) i played my sax regularly for about 8 years, but not much the last 3 years

... i have the ability, but only have medeocre ambition these days.

i mostly just jam around some interesting riffs/rythms when i pick er up.

im heavily influenced by SRV, and Led Zeppelin and Iron Maiden, with a few nocks to the fat sweed; Yngwie Malmsteen.

also i do some classical segovian fingerstyle songs like 'Disiderata'... i dont think i'll ever be able to play true flamenco fingerstyle like Poco de Lucia... he's just not human :shock:

when i have the extra money, my Fender is going to get repaired (refretted, re sorted electronics, left hand whammy, neck straitened.
