Most muzos here probably have more than one thing they like to strum or stroke. Do you have a favourite and cherished instrument or amp? And why? What makes that attachment such an emotional one?

My voice. I play guitar and blues harp, but I've always primarily been a vocalist, and everything I play is backing to that effect. In an ideal world I would love to let rip on the fiddle and entrance with the Uilleann Pipes.

Like Brian Eno, my favourite musical instrument is the studio.

I saw the Dennis Bovell dub band last night. They had a reggae fiddle player!

I used to have a violin. I was never much cop at playing the fkn thing but I ADORED it. It was Italian and I used to play it at school concerts and I was also in a youth orchestra. I'm about as musical as a sucking pig but I LOVED playing in an orchestra (the rest of the musicians drowned out my tuneless scrapings!) In the end, acknowledging that I wasn't ever going to be any good at it, I gave it to my nephew. As for the instruments I most like to LISTEN to, I'd probably go for the electric guitar, the faster and more histrionic it's played the better. Plus the human voice is a fairly amazing instrument isn't it?

Yes, that's how it SHOULD be played! :-)

My melodica. Bet Dennis Bovell has got one of those too.
