Members Opa John Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 All of them, really, But, the violin and mandolin mostly. I have both, but I'm not very good on either of them. Still a work in progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gitnoob Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 Marimbas. I have a uke, and I've strummed a few chords on it, but I just can't entertain myself as well as I can with the guitar. I love the size of an uke, and I love the range and tone of a guitar, so I've gravitated towards small-body guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gull12 Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 Upright Bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BLUtunes Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 Violin. Well, ANY of the violin family, really. The lute is another instrument that I am very strongly attracted, but I don't see myself really trying to learn that for many years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Florida_Gator Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 Either a violin or (perferably) a viola. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AMC Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 Definitely cello and I plan on learning someday. Working on learning to play mandolin right now and it's a lot of fun. Same tuning as a violin.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TN.Frank Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 I'd love to play the Dobro(aka Squareneck resonator) but those things are pretty hard for me since I'm not much into finger pickin'. Just couldn't get the hang of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Starrshine Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 I was watching and talking to this guy that was playing a marimba last weekend; always wanted to be able to play one. Other than that, I'd love to learn the cello. I have a friend that plays and it is so soothing.Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members WildWill Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 I suppose, in no particular order: violin and cello banjo ukulele mandolin resonator I already play bass and guitar, so I left bass off of the list. Though I would like to, and am working to, play both better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gitnoob Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 I find harp guitars kind of intriguing, but they are pretty big. Maybe a harp uke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members seagullplayer77 Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 I've always had a thing for hammered dulcimer, but I've already got a bunch of "work in progress" instruments (mandolin and harmonica, mostly) that I don't practice enough, and the last thing I need is another distraction. That and HDs are kind of big and expensive, and I don't have the space or the money for one right now. Upright bass would be totally awesome, thought I don't think I'd ever be able to put the effort into learning to play one. Not having frets would throw me for a loop. I'd like to get a Dobro some day and learn to play slide, but that's not really at the top of the list either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gthom Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 I could stand knowing how to play the violin, or the lute would be cool too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members guitar_goob Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 Definitely upright bass! I would love to play in a cool jazz trio or something - that would be fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeepEnd Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 Already play banjo, mandolin, ukulele, and electric bass. What I'd like is to play them well. Then again, playing guitar well would be nice too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members katopp Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 Heck - I would love to be able to play the guitar and that damned thing has frets. How one can play frettless on such a short scale is way beyond me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Terry Allan Hall Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 Own/play all of those except the hammered dulcimer, but a friend has started building those, since he retired, so plan to get one soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kujozilla Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 I can play upright. It is easy enough the real pain is developing the callous/hand strength to play for extended periods. I would love to learn violin, but I don't have the discipline.

Members ccasey Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 Mando for sure. But, I've decided to resist my impulses to dabble and try to focus my very limited time on the guitar. We'll see how long that lasts .... :-) Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LiFeStArTs@40 Posted November 12, 2010 Members Share Posted November 12, 2010 Upright bass. I saw a guy in "nawlins" that could make anybody want to take it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
