I would love both! Hahaha. But I don't have the money to drop on one :p (That being said I do love the guitars I have even though none of them are high end). I play mostly solo acoustic or jazz.
hehe nice.
ill hold them for you.

i actually cant play jazz at all, but bought one on the premise that 'i'd learn'.

i hope my attempt at bass goes better lol

Hahah, you're too kind :p What are they out of curiosity?

And I never used to play jazz until a year or so ago - I think it came with my development of theory (I was really working hard to improve it) and I realised the 'beauty' of it so to speak!

i should get you to play the guitar and make a video to sell it hehe
I think you replied to my old ad with the D'Aquisto Centura (the red one).
The other acoustics are a custom handmade acoustic electric, and a vintage larrivee.
I also had a martin but i sold that already

My first ever instrument was the recorder HAHA (because of primary school). Then when I went into high school I took an interest in piano and self taught myself. I stopped playing because of the HSC. I also played violin... and stopped because it was too hard xD And I also played the clarinet and stopped as well :( I will learn how to play piano properly when my HSC exams are finished.

I played piano for 4 years and quit when I was on 6th grade in year 4 ): something I really regret doing. But I picked up violin towards the end of year 4 and finished 8th grade in year 9. Kind of really regret not doing my aMus the next year haha, but I'm in year 11 now and studies are really picking up now so I don't have the time :\

Yeess! Nice to see that there are so many musicians here :p
I have attempted 5 instruments... out of those five the three I actually can play are piano (main instrument), vibes, and clarinet. Have attempted violin and guitar and I'm just horrible at fingerboarding (clearly not a word...).
I am so scared of violin strings snapping. I'd freak out whenever I was tuning it :(
