How Long Have You Been Playing Music

[trumpeter]

Not just bass, music in general.


I've been playing trumpet 7 years, and bass 1.5

[bottlerocket]

Since I was 12, so 6 years and I still suck.

What did you play?

[mastrrbasser]

about six for me too(bass). I've been playing drums on and off for a few years(nothing spectacular, just simple stuff for writings sake). Within the past year i've taken piano courses at my school, and i've recently bought a guitar (i've always knocked around on guitar when one was around, but i didn't have one at my house for a while)

[bottlerocket]

What did you play?

Guitar for a year, then bass, so guitar for 6, bass (way more seriously than guitar) for 5.

[chipmunk2510]

almost four years. Trumpet at first. Then in 8th Grade switched to Baritone. Then in 8th grade our Tuba failed a class so he couldn't go to UIL so he taught me Tuba in a week and we came home with a First Division. (I'll admit to some gloating in that last sentence.) Then in 9th grade i picked up bass around september/october. Started playing bass almost religiously. I'll will have been playing bass for a year in september/october.

I've had a piano since I was 5 and because of that I've been messing around with music since that age.

[Akira]

Well I am going into 10th grade, for reference.
I started piano lessons when I was just a little kid. Elementary school little. I started fooling around with my mom's guitar occassionally around6th or 7th grade maybe? I started clarinet for school in 5th grade, and switched to alto sax in 8th grade. I think I started bass October of my 8th grade year.
