I'm not sure anyone has done this before, but i'll give it a go. Basically, this thread is all about instruments, all instruments welcome! Except for electronic music.... It's not an instrument. I'm also going to be surprised if anyone replies, because I don't think many people on EMC have this passion. I'll give it a go, but here's my Epiphone Special ii Les Paul. It's a simple cheap guitar, and so it was my first, since then I haven't gotten another guitar because I only started 7 months ago, and money is a struggle. Although, this guitar delivers what it needs to, heavy and proud, just an a plus beginner guitar in my opinion, nothing you're gonna want to keep as a main guitar forever, but, for a newer player this guitar is great. It has a poplar wood body with a mahogany neck, with a rosewood fretboard. Just two Epiphone 650R and 700T humbuckers. The neck on this guitar feels great, and it's just a simple 1960s SlimTaper D Profile. This guitar is pretty heavy though, and it's kind of exhausting playing while standing up for large amounts of time, but it's just a steady guitar, does it's job and does it to it's expectations. My only problem with it would be the weight of the guitar, the finish and well, that it's a cheap model. It sounds well for what it's made to do, but I feel like the sound of this guitar lacks character, and sounds cheaper than most, although it's way better than a 99$ guitar by a long shot. Other than that, it's good for the time being.
Ooo, great thread idea! This is my Calabash flute! I bought it in Guangzhou, China during 7th grade. I sadly lost my residence on EMC during that trip because my newly adopted brother (reason why I was in China) would throw fits over electronics. Buuuut, I got to see a lot of neat stuff during that time I would like to learn how to play it sometime... Maybe next summer I'll sit down and figure it out! This is my Armstrong flute I started playing this when I was in 6th grade, and I absolutely loved it! I played it for 3 years, until I had to make the choice between band and dance because there wasn't enough time for both. It previously belonged to my mother, because she was a flutist in school. I've only played it a few times in the last few months, but I would love to get back in to playing it sometime. Not pictured: I also have a Williamsburg handcrafted wood fife... I'm not sure how old it is or exactly where it came from, but I do like it quite a bit
My personal favorite would have to be the ukulele! 1) it’s small enough for my hands. 2) Twenty one pilots. 3) it’s really easy to learn.
