I really like Jordan rudess's fingerboard continuum and his guitar/keyboard hybrid he has going on the last few years.

Cool! What about Pat Metheny's Orchestrion?
I'm just thinking I should add it to my Instruments Blog Edited by Gerinski - May 27 2013 at 03:54 |

Wow
I've never heard about this man before, but I seriously need to go find an album after having seen this vid! PA material? Who cares - it's wonderfully strange. Just take a look at the instruments involved: |

Yes, I love these things! I'd very much like to get my hands on one of em. I am pretty good with my fingers, and I just love the small sneaky tricks you can do with it.

My band used to use an anglegrinder & circular saw blades, we also simultaneously had things like mandolin, bodhran, shakuhachi, and so froth. These days we've stopped using anglegrinders & circular saw blades, and instead we have homemade noise toys

I have a thing for strange instruments - be that percussion, reeds, synths, string instruments, homemade contraptions and the list literally goes on and on...
Some instruments even seem to have the ability to play every other instrument in the world. I mean just take a look at this bad-ass thing called the Eigen harp  Anyhoo - this thread is about the weird and eccentric music instruments out there, and I would love to see what you guys can bring to the table. We may even have some players out there who play water tuba, or some other wonderfully bizarre thing I'll leave you with the fabulous sauerkraut synth: |
