    saxophone - pretty much a beginner set up even though i've been playing for like seven years haha. getting a better mouthpiece soon.
    double bass - school hire/not great
    piano - old out of tune piano (Eflat/Bflat chord sounds really fucking dissonant even though it's meant to be a fifth lol)
    (electric) bass - mid range squire p-bass. shitty practice amp.
    guitar (not well :p) - most of what i own is my dad's hah, but i guess i can say i have two fender strats, one later seventies, other mid eighties and a fender lead 2. and a marshall amp (forget which one), but it's been messed with so that we can get the same amp distortion without annoying neighbors, meaning it's much less powerful than it original was.

    A bass player! After playing with my bass player for a while I've noticed they don't get as much credit as they should.

    Ah...I used to have such a beautiful Ibanez. They make great tones. Never played a 5-string by them though.

    A sad truth in the world of music. Well...rock music anyway. :p Much more exposure in Jazz I've found.

    My Ibanez has some ridiculous tones. It's excellent. It's a discontinued pattern and neck style though, which is cool. The new models they came out with changed some things for the worst, so mine is very desirable.

    I'm a keyboardist; I'm also broke, so my setup consists of nothing but an R3, with a pedal and a dynamic microphone ('cause gooseneck mic's are lame!), which all runs through a KP3, and, then, sent to bedroom stereo speakers. ;x

    You're my hero! I have an R3 and a Roland Juno-G and I'm getting a KP3 (and hopefully a kaossilator pro) when I get back to the UK. I have a KP1 but it's a bit shit lol. I also have a Padkontrol, a microkorg, kaossilator, a peavy XR-500 amp head with a 400-watt peavy speaker and a behringer 300-watt amp/semi PA. I run a dynamic mic through my R3 aswell. I've actually just finished packing my synths up for my flight back to England tomorrow. Have you seen the latest released korg products they revealed this week?

    I would say go for it but admittedly I'm a little bias. :lol: But they are fun instruments to play, plus if you have both it's fun to jam with another person.

    Do it! It's always good to learn other instruments and playing bass is a whole different beast.
