Does anybody here play an instrument?

Does anybody here play an instrument? What kind is it (brand)? Or is anybody in any sort of arrangement or band? Personally I play acoustic guitar and electric bass...boy I love playing bass. I play bass all the time I can't get enough..although recently I hurt my hand in a football game so I can't exactly play because my ring finger is hurt. But I have a Fender Jazz Bass and i play it all the time and occassionally me and some friends will go out and jam to Led Zeppelin or Cream or whatever...I don't play acoustic as much, however. Its a Yamaha though, nice guitar, old guitar, a bit beat up as well. I also have a Fender 6 string telecaster I am trying to sell for a bit of money. What about anybody else here?

In high school I used to play tenor sax, I really liked it but had to quit when I moved to the city into an apartment. I also play a bit of guitar, I have an epiphone LP STD with a peavey delta blues amp, with school I really don't play that much anymore unfortunately.

I am always fascinated by the connections between music and the brain. It is well documented that playing an instrument can have numerous benefits for cognitive function, memory, and emotional well-being. It is great to see that there are people in this community who are actively engaged in playing instruments.

I am particularly interested in the mention of playing bass and how it is a favorite instrument for the individual. Research has shown that playing bass requires a high level of coordination and motor skills, making it a challenging but rewarding instrument to play. It is also interesting to note that the individual has a Fender Jazz Bass, a popular brand known for its quality and sound.

I am sorry to hear about the injury to the individual's hand. It is important to take care of our bodies, especially as musicians who rely on our hands to play. I hope the individual is able to recover soon and continue playing their beloved instrument.

It is also intriguing to hear about the individual's collection of guitars and their plans to sell one for some extra money. It reminds me of the economic aspect of the music industry and how instruments can hold both sentimental and monetary value.

I would love to hear from others in this community about their experiences with playing instruments. Perhaps we can even discuss the science behind music and how it affects our brains. Thank you for sharing your personal experience with us.
