I am a vocalist and guitarist. However, I have no opinion on what I can do and neither should anyone else who hasn't seen my band in a live setting. tongue But, I will say that compared to a couple of years ago I believe my vocal ability has improved a hundredfold.

Guitar: Does Smoke On The Water count?
Drums: Beginner (played for less then 1/2 year). Yet I still get numerous requests to drum in bands, and just yesterday I was asked to play in a death metal band (I don't know why I agreed).
Keyboard: I can drum a beat on the case, but I'm pretty sure that doesn't count.
Vocals: As well as numerous requests to play drums in bands, I have been getting numerous requests from riot control squads looking for an effective sound-based weapon.

Hmm been playing at guitar for lets see---33 years so I guess I have learned a little.
A real hack at bass
I try to avoid singing when I can but I keep getting the mic shoved in front of me. Oh well I guess some folks just like aural abuse Laughing Rolling Eyes .
I did the White Metal thang from 81 or so -95. I have been doing mostly worship stuff since 95. For the last three years or so I have been the house guitarist for a 6700+ member mega Church. I also play guitar with a loose knit group of several guys doing prophetic flow worship for conferences and such a few times a month.

I suppose i'm intermediate. Maybe a little better. Always improving. Got to. I hope to one day be as good as or better than jeff Loomis XD *looks at watch* woah time to get back to practice! lolz I'm probably intermediate or just below with keyboard/piano. Played for 6 years when I was little but quit, focussed on videogames for a few years then got a guitar! drums = epic fail. The guys in my band pretty much forbid me to touch the drum set while they're around lolz. and I don't claim to be able to sing but I try at times. I spose I'd say I'm good for what I sing. and I can growl and scream I spose. but Guitar is my forte =]

this is the result of someone who doesn't practice nearly enough:

Guitar (mostly acoustic)-probably intermediate...i've done various worship stuff at church and retreats...but my level does not equate with the years i've played it (about 6)
Bass-between beginner and intermediate. i like this instrument. a lot of room for movement if you know what you're doing
Keyboards-kinda the same as bass...i've only been doing it seriously since april (bass for about 3 years)
Vocals-Intermediate. i've done alot of choral stuff and have been developing this the longest...but not quite as good as i could. range is baritone...yet limited at times. very good with harmony and lead.
Drums-this is non-existant. i played snare and bass for one year...i remember nothing. but i do have good sense of rhythm


Since this has been revived, my guitar has improved slightly.

I've had marked improvement in keyboards...technique-wise, this is my best instrument. I still have a long way to go though.

My vocals have also improved with recent lessons. My teacher charts me as having a range of 3 octaves, which is far more than I thought I had. Shocked

Vocal delivery and techinque have also improved...check my recital video in the Metal Mayhem section if you want to hear. tongue

I have been playing guitar for about 25 years. The main problem I have is Sweeps and arpeggios

When it comes to planning out a solo I just cannot wing it up, I have to loop a rhythm and go at it for hours.

Bass Guitar ( I can get by)
Drums I can keep a basic rhythm.
that is about it.

I've been playing lead guitar for 25 years. I don't feel comfortable classifiying myself in category of where I'm at in my playing(I can always improve..lol). Safe to say, I just enjoy playing.

Keyboard-going on my 13th year of lessons here...could be a lot further along if I'd practiced more when i was a young'un but as it is i am halfway through my grade nine royal conservatory...
Guitar-beginner...every song i can play has at least three ridiculously long pauses in it while i figure out what comes next.
Accordion-campfire jam quality but my repertoire is extremely limited at the moment...and everything is either in the key of c+ or a-
Trumpet-haven't played a note in 5 years and even when i was playing it was pretty beginner
Drums-I can play as well as a metronome...snare snare snare snare....so if your metronome is broken...lol i really suck at drums
Singing-never took a lesson but i am told ye olde vocals are pretty good. lots of vibrato about a three octave range. and super loud...people are always turning around and looking at me in church and it's definitely embarassing

I've been playing guitar for about 23 years. There are still areas I would like to improve on, but I don't think I suck all that much.
I also play bass guitar, and I have the fundamentals for keyboard.
I wouldn't recommend putting me behind a microphone, or a drumkit.

Cello - Used to play it. Dropped it in the 6th grade. If someone gave me a cello, I wouldn't be totally clueless.

Guitar - Beginning to Intermediate. I'm improving and I think I have potential. I can play the rhythm to "Paranoid" now and working on the rhythm to "Four Horsemen". Learned the intro to Stairway to Heaven and can play Minuet in G by Bach on classical guitar.

Voice - I can't figure it out. I hear so many polarizing opinions on my voice. I won an Honorable Mention at a state-wide classical singing competition, people have said I have a cool sounding voice, and I was admitted into the small mens' choir at school, but then I get people who think my voice is a bad joke, and I've been rejected multiple times from going into Madrigals (which is the elite high school choir). I don't know if I have a good voice or not.

Bass, Keyboard, Drums, everything else - Me and the monkey at a zoo are at the same skill level.
