Anyone play any instruments?

I've been pretty inspired of late, and have been really getting back into the saddle of writing music. Picked up a Dean Backwoods 6 Banjo recently and have been having an absolute blast pairing it up with a classical guitar as a secondary melody source. I own way too many instruments at this point, and although some live by the 'master 1 guitar' mantra I can't seem to stop picking up new shit.

Anyone else here a packrat with instruments, or play in general?

I have 9 guitars now, a few keyboards, a Banjo, a Ukelele, a dulcimer, a Mandolin, a Violin, a Bass, an upright piano, some harmonicas, a Tenor Saxophone, a clarinet, and a recorder I kept from 5th grade music class.

Used to play guitar for 7 or 8 years. Then I stopped when I was in senior HS so I sold all my guitars. Now I can't play for shit especially now that I get bad cramps and locking joints LMAO.

I can play a guitar but it hurts my fingers too much and idk where my pick went so I kinda lost interest.

edit: forgot I sold my guitar lol, thats another reason why i quit.

Should definitely try to pick it back up, even if you don't to commit yourself that hard to it. It can always be fun to just play and sing along to some simple things, or twiddle around at a campfire.

Like cramps and joint pain, or the steel strings cutting your fingertips? It hurts like hell at first, like running your fingers on a wire vegetable cutter, but you develop callouses after a while. You could put a thumbtack in the tips of my fingers and I wouldn't even feel it. Also nylon string guitars are far softer and don't really cause any pain at all, don't have to play steel string exclusively.

Harmonica for a week then I quit

I used to play classic guitar for 5 years but stopped because of uni

I play three different versions of an instrument, but the main one is the original mayonaisse
