Guitar - a year and a half
Bass - a year
Saxaphone - five years, but not so much any more.

I can also play around on a piano.

I've posted this song in another thread similar to this one. I am mainly best at piano, but I picked up guitar about 4 years ago and I sing as well.

It's not a clip of me playing per se, but I performed all of the instrumentation in this song, minus the drums.

Thanks.

I played a reasonably mean electric guitar when I was still in my teens but I haven't really touched it in over 4 years. I sort of lost interest for it as soon as I started learning to build classic guitars, which I found a lot more interesting. I can still play some simple stuff, but most of it is just gone. I think I'd break my wrist if I tried to sweep an arpeggio these days.

On the side I occasionally mess around with various synths and plug-ins on my pc (and have been doing so for about 9 years) making anything from trance to drum & bass and industrial. I've yet to complete a whole 'song' though. I have literally hundreds of unfinished musical projects varying from total rubbish to actually quite good, but I don't have the attention span to actually finish them.

I have an ocarina, but I haven't played it for several months. I do, however, have all the song books to get me back up to speed when I do.

Classically trained pianist, dabbled in French horn, sing in concert choir.

Interesting fact: Did you know that English horns are neither true horns nor English? In fact, they are French. The French horn is German.

I can pick at the guitar but I'm not very good. I'm decent on a piano though.

I'm a vocalist of the death metal and black metal varieties, and I'm damn good at it too.

I'm a terrible keyboardist, and a worse bassist.

No... too bad my parents never forced me to learn one (and i am myself too lazy to start now).

I think everyone should at least have SOME idea of how to play one, though... i am all for art 'n shit *g*.

In my shame: i can't even read notation (sigh). Musical education was cut, when i was in school. Disgusting.

until about a year ago I played the trombone, and years ago the keyboard.

I started playing the piano 14 years ago.
I'm not talented at all, but I am stubborn and so I never gave up.
This way, even with no talent, you can play some pretty decent things, like this:

This guy sounds a better than me, but I'm getting close. Took me half a year of casual practice.

I play the piano; it's great.
EDIT: Here's a clip; I don't play too well on camera though.
