This is no poll, because I think, there are too much instruments to count :

I am playing all kind of guitars, Flutes, Keyboards and a bit Violin...
I prefer my 12-string Ibanez and my Epiphone Les Paul.

Did you spell that right? Because I can't find a mention of it, and being a saxophonist and thus a bit of a fan of ol' Adolph Sax I am intrigued. I did find out, looking for mention of a saxofusi, that Adolph (we're on (his rather unfortunate) first name basis...) also invented the modern bass clarinet, which is also a cool instrument (if you don't believe me, check out Eric Dolphy's rendition of God Bless the Child)

Could you point me more directly to this instrument?

I'm learning guitar, and I can play the piano a bit. I can also drum a hell of a beat with my hands, but I've never used a real drum kit.

Guitar, piano, possibly the clarinet, though I haven't had a go on one for about 10 years, so I may have forgotten everything.

Mainly guitar though.

You should have seen my later high-school years on spring band-trips, I used more bus cargo space than anyone...

Marching Tuba - Marching Band - Parade
Concert Bass - Wind Ensemble and Concert Band
Barritone - Marching Band - Field Show
Trombone - Jazz Band

That was during my Junior year trip...

have you guys noticed that certain people seem to pick certain instruments?

In the CCVG most of the flutes were very pale blondes, the claranets tended to be dark haird and dusky, double reed tended to be very small women with glasses who were vegitarians (me and my friend louise only exceptions i'm a big vegitarian man with glasses and shes a small meat eating womean with glasses), precussion seem to be odd (in a kinda cool way), saxaphones tended to be kinda spaced out, and the brass tended to be juvenile blokes.....

now i'm not saying that all people fit these sterotypes i'm just saying my orchestras, wind bands have

You play an Epiphone? *cough*sucky*cough* ;)

I play a Fender Stratocaster, my Eleanor, my baby.
I also got this sweet Takamine, dark blue with a tad lighter shade of blue around the center. It's my only acoustic.

I don't play any instruments other than acoustic and electric guitar, but it's good, I kick ass. :D

Your saxophones were not real saxophone players though. Saxophones are the center of the universe and everything revolves around us (source: http://www.getamused.com/jokes/028389.html) :D And even if that isn't true, our saxophones (at least the good ones) were pretty much geniuses. The top 2 were also the president and vice-president of the math team. :D

harp (fairly well)
piano (decently, but only for fun)
recorder (alto as well as soprano, decently)
and I sing (again, fairly well.)

My dad used to say I played the harp, my siblings played the flute, my mom played the piano, and he played the radio.
