Yep, sure do, Andy. The harmonica and, don't laugh, but didgeridoos as well, they make a wonderful sound. I should add only when I'm on my own.

Lol, my Jackie played just about any instrument by ear from an early age and wrote music, played mostly piano, flute and saxaphone, eldest played the cello but hasn't done for some time, son played electric and classical guitar. I'm useless, they must have got it from my Dad who also played piano although never had a lesson, used to play Honky Tonk, and then would suddenly switch to classical. They tried very hard to teach me, not a chance!

Guitar and bass guitar, but I can't read music for either ...

Hi Andy, I play bass guitar, I used to play for a band called "aggravation" when I was 16, I hope that assists your profiling!

THOSE are made for the tourist market, usually by certain inland Aboriginal communities (and that's assuming it's not a foreign "knock-off" - sold out of certain tourist traps in Melbourne/Sydney/Brisbane/Darwin (and often co-owned by Japanese travel companies !)..).

THE lacquer/clear coat over the paintwork is the giveaway there..

Aboriginal musicians here make there own, anywhere up to over two metres [6'6"] long, and may own several (with different sounds to each..). Often the artwork will be done with natural clays and plant dyes, (as long as the artist isn't feeling lazy and grabs the acrylics instead..); while the painting(s) may also mean something personal to the musician himself in some cases. tongue

THOUGH I'm no musician myself, not by any stretch of the imagination (I could always be called upon to play the fool in the background, and possibly sing in a 'barbershop quartet' situation, but wouldn't hold a tune solo even if my life depended on it..), I have been told previously that the 'trick' to playing didgeridoos is to puff up your cheeks and blow - just like any wind instruments, while your lips, tongue and vocal chords could all affect the end sounds...
