A thread for different instruments? Ok

[Sérgio]

I got some non-guitar stuff...

My C harmonica, which I bought mostly for understanding how a harmonica works. I do learn it.

My Brazilian mandolin. I use it for folk (mostly Led Zeppelin's Celtic stuff).

Nice pictures Sergio. nice instruments to.

Where's Sergio?

I remember seeing some posts from him maybe a month or so ago.

I have a couple of harmonicas too, even began to learn to play them years ago, but apparently I got sidetracked by guitars or something or other. I should learn to play them. Could make something pretty original with them. I mean really, who has heard a harmonica in a dark metal song before? I'm sure there's a few but none come to mind off the top of my head.

Sorry to hear about your father, but bring that accordion to Minnesota! They are still fashionable here. Maybe we could get in the St. Urho parade next month in Finland, MN.

Neil must have done something heavy with a harmonica.

Otherwise, you could convert some of the organ tracks from Uriah Heep to harmonica.

Every weekend we visited my Grandparents as kids we got a does of Champagne ----- POLKA that is

This is true. I was in love with Buck Owen's red white and blue guitar.

My Father played the accordion too.
Fond memories of my Father sitting on the edge of the bed, eyes closed and rocking out
the polkas!

To our Fathers, miss you Dad....

Manatee Lap Steel


Mullet Fish Ukulele
