I generally prefer blues and greens. Is that odd? What isn't?

Ooh! You can now add a Clavia Nord Electro 3 73 to that! It's the keyboard of my dreams; Hammond, Vox and Farfisa organs (with the functionality of the originals), Fender Rhodes, Wurlitzer and Yamaha electric pianos, Clavinet (with all the tone variations of the real thing), grand and upright pianos, plus Mellotron sounds. I'm a happy bunny...

I want to add an Elise Duet Concertina to my list but, ugh, I don't have it yet. Also a Lucida Guitarrón Mexicano.

A very old violine, which I inherited and which is not in a perfect condition. It sais stradivari, but its probably a fake. Still have to check that.

A trumpet (which I dont really use because of the neighbours)...

Two bongos.

A capoeira instrument from Brazil.

A handmade acoustic guitar from Brazil - my favorite, and two other garbage acoustic guitars.

An Ibanez electric guitar, and one other garbage electric guitar.

Some harps and flutes and a lot of sound making crap.

I want a keyboard!

The violin is almost certainly NOT a Stradivari, but that doesn't make it a "fake". For hundreds of years there has been a tradition among luthiers to put a label in their instruments proclaiming them to be the work of a great master. It's an odd sort of affectation, but it's not intended to be dishonest.

The Capoeira instrument - that's got to be a Berimbau! I love those. You obviously have a Latin thing going on,.

If you are planning on getting a keyboard, I recommend Casio's CTK7000 or WK7500. They have fantastic sounds, loads of rhythms and a real drawbar (Hammond-type) organ facility.

Is that the six-string fretless acoustic bass? I'm fascinated with those, but I've never seen one in real life, never mind played one. Oh well - at least I have my electric upright...

Gee, I used to have 2 whole bands worth of stuff and an analog recording studio...

now, I have only the High Plains Drifter:

a pentaphonic 4 string baritone resonator guitar
(that I built myself)

Which you can learn all about and listen to here:

I have just updated the visual showing moist of my instruments. The Wurlitzer piano and the Roland organ aren't actually mine - they are owned jointly by my band, The Skanx. All instruments are shown approximately to scale.

I'm jealous of the jazz guitar and bass guitar!

Yup. They're louder than an upright but don't have as much bass range.

I got to play one a month ago and, dear lord, I was hooked.

If I had to choose any four (and get rid of all the others), they would be the ukulele, the Framus archtop acoustic, the electric upright bass and the Nord Electro. I'd probably develop some kind of mutant electric Delta blues style with lots of Wurlitzer piano and acoustic guitar going on...

I have an Omnichord
www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYIUwlMVS8E

I've had it for nearly 30 years and it was state of the art when I got it. It's an instrument for people who can't read music and don't understand what chords are about, etc. Great toy for kids.

It's a cross between a Casio home keyboard and an autoharp! There is a modern version of it called the Suzuki QChord - it's essentially the same as the Omnichord but with a funky new shape and more features.

I really wanted an Omnichord when they first appeared. Who knows...
