I can get tunes out of the Piano, Mandolin, and Irish Whistle.
I took up the piano as they were offering lessons at my old college and so I decided to take that opportunity. I found it easy to practice and I enjoy playing so I've kept with it. Though, I've been in a rut since July, when I finished college and no longer got lessons. Don't feel like I'm going anywhere with it at the moment. Should search for a new teacher of something.
Mandolin - Chris Thile. Need I say any more?
Irish Whistle - I took it up originally to help with my listening skills. But after 4 months I've still yet to learn anything by ear. I have to say I seem better suited to wind instruments rather than strings though. Far better at the whistle than I am at my mando. lol
I also plan on taking up the Flute sometime this year.
