Other Instruments?

From Paul R on 1/19/2014 9:16:54 PM

See that guy on the left? Yeah, Michael Cooney. He's a folkie from way back, and plays lots of different instruments: banjo (5- and 6-string), guitar (6- and 12-string), tin whistle, concertina, and probably whatever else is laying around.

So, what other instruments do you play?

For the record, I'm not saying I play anything well, but I play guitar (acoustic and electric, 6- and 12-string), electric bass guitar, banjo (5-string), mandolin, dulcimer, and autoharp. Now it's your turn.

"Whatever else is lying around" is an apt description. It's part of the joy of folk music. My latest challenge is tryin' to figure out how people can play the fiddle. I mean: the damn thing ain't got no frets ...!
