Well, that's more than I've messed with.  For that matter, I'm out of practice with most of the instruments I've played.  It's been a while since I've had the time, and I don't own most of the instruments anymore, anyway.

I haven't played the bagpipes (^_^) but have had some expsoure playing the English Horn and the Bassoon. (And of course the oboe, my primary instrument.) And of course there are various members of the oboe and bassoon families, but I haven't explored all of those.. The only double reed instrument I own is an oboe.

Heh, jeeze.  I've only played those two I mentioned, piano, and electric bass.  The only instrument I've been playing lately is the electric mouse, though.  It's easier to work musically, on my own, using midi.  I can just overdub the vocals and take care of everything myself.

 

How many double-reeds are there, besides oboe, bassoon, and bagpipes?  I'm not familiar with others.

Ooh, I love cellos. If I had to pick a new instrument to play, it would be the cello! (However, given that I play oboe and other double reeds, violin, piano, and guitar -- not all very well , and not at the same time! -- I pretty much have my hands full.)!

Oooooh, nice.  I played cello and tuba, myself.  I haven't kept up with them since college, though.
