I play:
BASS (my primary instrument)
GUITAR (my secondary instrument)
KEYBOARDS ("Chopsticks")
My original songs are mostly in a classic rock/pop style...though to pigeonhole them beyond that would do their individualism a disservice.

Started with keyboard lessons at about age 9 or 10.
Took guitar, bass, & music theory classes during my teens.

lol, Mick. That's cool.
That's steep, G. However, worth it, I'm sure if it's getting the necessary TLC.
As an aside, does anyone use a Boss Loop station? If so, there's a competition going down. You can check out the details here: BOSS Loop Station World Championship

I own a Squier Tele. (Yeah, I know...THAT ain't a Squier Stratocaster.)
My tele is okay. IT isn't a FENDER TELE. But it sounds like a Telecaster should.
The Squiers...are usually lower quality than Fender brand guitars...but are instruments to be used.
They are starter instruments. You can perform...but comparing Squiers to Fenders. Fenders are better aesthetically. Better materials. And I do believe that the Squier models are a bit smaller than the Fender models.

No problem.
There are people doing custom work on Squiers to make them pretty good instruments. You can get good prices on them.

Guitarist. Trying to play blues at the moment, or anything requiring finger picking. Been into Rodrigo y Gabriella for a couple of years, but not got the patience to learn that style.
lol. That's not bad, Andrew. You should check out Iron and Wine. There's some pretty good picking on a number of Sam's songs.
As an aside, there's a good chance that I might be obtaining an Ebow. It would be perfect for the kind of music I'm playing right now. Hooray, technology! j/k

Played in a number of fast hardcore punk bands (grindcore/powerviolence) and some metal bands (some ambient black metal, some death and thrash metal...). Guitars/vocals. That's mostly in the past. Still love the music, but you know.. not into the whole 'band' thing anymore as far as creating music goes. Also made some noise when I was 18/19, which was really fun.
First attempt at making music were at 14, I made really syncopated, sample based hip-hop. Like a shittier version of stuff like Flying Lotus.
For the past two years I've mainly been making breakcore (and some related genres like gabber). Some tunes are kinda melodic, other really on the noisy side. I tend to sample ambient black metal, folk music and dinosaur documentaries/movies, though I do the usual break mashing with a nice melody on top as well. Really depends on my mood. Also delve in dubstep, UK garage, acid techno, psychedelic hip-hop and drum n bass.
Currently nothing I wanna show, but to those unfamiliar with breakcore, Venetian Snares is the 'rock star' of the scene. Check the bit 5:50 and on to get an exagerated idea of what breakcore and my music is about. Though it's a wide genre.
