Acoustic and electric guitar, five years or so. Drums, six. A little bit of ukulele and bass guitar on the side, and maybe some dobro soon. Guitar is definitely my favorite.

Guitar, Mandolin, (Dabble) Uke, (Dabble) Bass, (Dabble) Keyboard.... Recently I've had an realization that while I enjoy all of these in certain doses all but the guitar are are auxiliary instruments.

I need, I want, I must focus the vast majority of my effort for growth in the guitar. I was ready to add a mountain dulcimer to the collection but opted not to for this very reason.

Guitar, bass guitar, mandolin, banjo, ukulele, piano, voice, and their variants. I also spent a limited amount of time with a fiddle, and hand percussion.

Well.. This is an acoustic guitar forum... So....

I've been playing electric bass for 42 years. Started gigging at 15. Still gigging at 56. Picked up acoustic guitar four years ago.

I'm primarily a rhythm guitar player so I can play while I sing. But during over 50 years of playing, I've picked up a bit of lead, a bit of fingerpickin'...

I've also become good enough to fool people on the mandolin, Dobro, pedal steel and bass guitar.

Mostly guitar, but a little mandolin and banjo, as well. Ukulele, now and then. I'll even occasionally pick up a concertina but too much of that can give me tendonitis in my forearm, so only in very small doses.

Acoustic guitar, bass guitar, flute, piano, and just this last week added dulcimer, which is a blast to play. Here's a picture of my latest two acquisitions:

A string is a string - no matter what instrument its on. If its got a string, I'll try to play it.

A string is a string, no doubt, but not all strings are created equal! I find upright bass strings too long and mandolin strings to short for comfort - I can play the doghouse but I don't like it. I find my baby-bear micro-bass just right.
