Clarinet, guitar, violin, piano, mandolin, accordion, drum kit, bass guitar, Greek bouzouki, banjo, various analog devices that probably don't really count as "I can play the ______", I used to play some brass instruments (I've still got a trombone and a bugle, but I never play them)...and THE COMPUTER (yes, a computer is an instrument), and that's about it.

My current main instrument would be voice (second tenor or melody tenor, as opposed to high tenor).
During my school days, I played clarinet for six years and changed to bass clarinet during Grades 11 and 12.
I wonder if there are other musical instruments that would be good for an aspie like me....
Currently, I mainly play the bass guitar, baritone ukulele, guitar, piano, bowed guitar as well as the tin whistle on the side.
I have the training to play most string instruments, keyed instruments, chromatically tuned percussion instruments and some woodwind instruments. I know how to play a lot of unconventional instruments too.
I'm learning the violin though. And I'm teaching myself how to sing. (The only problem I have is rememering lyrics. )
Organ---I am a church organist
Piano
Synthesizers and Electronic Keyboards
Trombone---began playing professionally around the age of 14
Hammered Dulcimer---I play this in my dulcimer music ministry
Mountain Dulcimer---also a part of my music ministry
Harmonica---also a part of my music ministry

Guitar and bodhran (an Irish drum) when I was younger I also played the recorder but everyone at my school had to have recorder lessons.
Also I sing but I'm not any good at it, I always sound monotonous doesn't stop me singing in private though

My main instrument is the guitar (Electric). I used to play until the cows came home and went back out.
All my guitars have names:
Ibanez JEM555WH "Roku"
Gibson Les Paul Studio "Yume"
Fender Mexican Stratocaster "Ryuusei"
While most rock guitarists prefer to wear their guitars low, about stomach height, I prefer to wear mine at chest height, as it allows for
amazing upper-fret access and there's less risk of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
I've been playing for (As of this post) 5 years and 10 months. I got lessons for 3 years, but I'm pretty much 85-90% self taught, so I never took any of my playing style from my teacher, even though he is absolutely phenomenal with a guitar.
I play guitar in front of audiences at least once a week. Mostly jam nights, but I enjoy it. It's also the reason why I say "Quite a few of the people who bullied me in School can now eat s**t because they are branded criminals and I rock out on stage every week".
Guitar and bodhran (an Irish drum) when I was younger I also played the recorder but everyone at my school had to have recorder lessons. Also I sing but I'm not any good at it, I always sound monotonous doesn't stop me singing in private though

I LOVE the bodhran.
I'm only learning it at the moment so I'm not that good, but hopefully I will be some day
