Oh goodness, the last thing I was expecting from that link was to see my name on it xD

I should probably elaborate: I currently play electric guitar/bass the MOST, and have the most experience with it (8 years.) Behind that, I have about 3 years trumpet experience (from middle school, so I'm definitely rusty, but I remember the basics), and intermediate piano knowledge (I can read sheet music for it, but only to the most basic extent; other than that, I play by feel.)

Besides all that stuff, I've got a bit of knowledge on the dulcimer (an intriguing instrument my grandmother used to play), minor curiosity in the banjo, and I once re-tuned my friend's mandolin that had the smallest two strings broken, to play Lamb of God's "Laid To Rest" two octaves higher than it should be...simply because we were drunk and the idea sounded good at the time (the result was pretty hilarious!)

TL;DR I can basically pick up and learn anything involving a pick and strings, have a basic knowledge of how to play most brass instruments, and have an unending curiosity when it comes to trying all things music...and inevitably making something incredibly brutal (read: metal as fuck) with said instruments. Yes, even the dulcimer. :D
