the violin was great to play and does produce absolutely beautiful music but the majority of my time playing revolved around the orchestra/strings portion of my school. Plus I was self conscious and playing the violin is gay. If I could do it again I would have quit the orchestra and such earlier and continued playing in my own time. I know I still could but I no longer have a violin(mine was rented or whatever).Originally Posted by Vengeful Scars
The electric bass guitar.
I believe it is the most underutilized instrument in modern music, yet every band has one because no "band image" is complete without the bassist. Even when a band does have a bassist, they're either so inept that they just reinforce the electric guitarist the entire time or get mixed low on the album. Yet bands like Om, Death From Above 1979, Big Business, and Wormwood, that lack a dedicated electric guitarist prove that the bass guitar can be the leading force behind a band.
So rather than channeling my potential musical abilities through an electric guitar, something that has been done far too many times, I'd prefer the road less traveled by.
EDIT: Whoops, need to learn to read. Didn't see that first post.
