Do you guys bring any instruments with you when you go /out/? Im considering picking up a naf, harmonica, or small travel guitar to maybe jam a bit when im camping overnight.
>sudden katabatic wind
>>2715709I bring a guitar when car camping alone.
Do NOT be that guy.
>>2715720 As if OP is >>2715711camping with other people
>>2715709Banjo. Easy to play and keeps normies away.
>>2715709>Do you guys bring any instruments with you when you go /out/?Just the harmonica. I play the guitar and banjo but they're too bulky for any serious trips.
>>2715709anyone know of a good but inexpensive long lasting powerbank? i'd like to take my digitakt out
Minelow maintenance (not going to rust or rot), pretty durable (no strings to break or wood to crack), fairly portable
>>2715709I bring a jaw harp sometimes
>>2715782>monophonic instruments
>>2715797>doubting the perfection of the world's most perfect (and oldest) instrumentThey also make polyphonic flutes if you so desire
>>2715720yes i strongly recommend against thisnever be that guy
i own harmonica and im slowly getting better at it
I don't know any instruments
>>2717881Based and retard pilled
>>2715720in a public campground sure, makes sense but what about dispersed camping when im by myself /out/ in the woods?
>>2715709i camp alone, but if i did camp with you or anyone like you i would bring a stalin organ only to fire it at your face the moment you bring out your gitar.out is silence, out is quiet, out isnt you playing crappy guitar.please just die.
>>2719341You don't even leave your coom cave m8
>>2717878Recently picked up Harmonica too, it's a lot of fun.First I started focusing on songs but quickly gave up and now I'm more focused on getting a blues groove going, which is a lot easier and a lot more fun.Also finally getting the hang of bending, which opens up a whole lot more possibilities to have fun with this tin sandwich.
>>2719341Nah, it's 2 guys who both know guitar jamminghttps://youtu.be/Ni8KBhnebwE?si=pKrbPsxPVusf_VdS
>>2719475thats actually true, i bring it with me
I like guitars but thought about getting something small like a dulcimer for outing.
>>2719977Is a dulcimer really that much smaller than a guitar?
>>2715709I did once or twice (pic related in the tree). I felt really uncomfortable playing it because I was worried people would hear me and I'd be annoying them. if I was really in the middle of nowhere, and I was positive no one would hear me, I suppose I wouldn't mind playing it. I'm pretty good.
>>2720580forgot image
Guitar is neat, you can play it pretty quietly. I think it's only "that guy" if you also start singing or are bad and trying to hard to play chords or something. Only really bring it when car camping or fishing though.
Violin seems like a kino /out/ instrument and also not a bad size to lug around but it looks hard
That's for goyim to entertain me. I listen to them sometimes in the cities, they're pretty good and I love to watch their face when I give them $5.
>>2720622I would clean shoes with spit and my t shirt if it meant I could get paid $5 consistently.
>>2720640Seems like a more rewarding thing to do than the average minimum wage job.
Better do that alone where I can't hear you
Melodica, cheap, easy to learn - if you know piano then you can pick it up instantly, and its smaller than a stringed instrument. Its maybe not the most beautiful of instruments, but it is polyphonic. I've cranked out a few Irish jigs on mine while camping on private land with friends and had a good time.
>>2721056Psst. Ay. Don't be that guy.
>>2715709hehehe

>>2721063I have tried the pennywhistle but it's just not my thing. Definitely lightweight and portable.
>>2721068it's hard to play very softly. in order to get it oscillating you have to play it fairly loud and it broadcasts quite a long distance.
>>2719482I'm gonna practice mine more. I bought one in C because YouTube told me and then remembered I don't enjoy C all that much it's too upp beat and happy. But fuck it I can still work on getting better.
>>2721070C is a good starter because pretty much every teaches in C, it's the most basic of the diatonic harps you can find. Essential for a beginner. You can still play a minor scale on it too, it all depends on how you use it.But I understand what you're saying, been thinking about getting a harmonic minor after seeing an old instruction video which looks like a tape recording from the 90's on YouTube, love the sound of it.https://youtu.be/02qZcYC0hEM
Bump
>>2722078the hurdy gurdy only ever calls death. everybody knows that.
>>2722078I want a Hurdy Gurdy :(
>>2722676
https://youtube.com/shorts/6QUKDnsSXikI think getting a native American flute would be pretty fun for a solo camping vibe and seemingly pretty lightweight to carry
>>2722710that flute's designed right in the perfect register/ definitely not a traditional indigenous instrument but very nice sound. I'd like to relax around the fire with link relatedhttps://youtu.be/I9QuO09z-SI?si=8al1XhV_DkqGXCkz
>>2722716based, striking fear into all competing camper factions
>>2722679what are they playing?
>>2722723bag pipe, pump organ, harp, and idunno... last one looks like he's banging a drum and playing a flute at the same time. I swear I've seen a danse macabre woodcarving with a skellington playing an oidy goidy but I can't find it
>>2722724i bet they play good music
>>2722728I would love to hear skeletons playing medieval instruments in a graveyard, as they jubilantly lead the living to their end of life.
>>2722728OH OH riding the death carriage in the lower left
This instrument has always been an outcast in some way.
I picked up the mandolin back in 2020 and I brought it with me for a couple camping trips. Having tabs on a tablet for a couple dad-rock songs and some tfolk songs got me and my dad some booze from one of our camping neighbors last time.

>>2715709i bring my keyboard to the beach all the time. theres a long standing trope in new age music of adding ocean/wave/bird samples but its even more authentic (and rewarding) to play live in that environment call and response style! the built in speakers are a comfortable volume to not overwhelm the airspace. i think if you are going to play music outside you should try to be respectful of the shared vibrations with the rest of the living things in the vicinity be it animals plants or humans.
>>2722864another good beach instrument is the harp, you can leave it on a log and the wind will play it for you dependent on which way it is gusting and how fast it will trigger different strings to ring out with little attack and a long release so the notes sort of float in and out of space. i got this harp for like 50 bucks from some native guy who i am pretty sure stole it because they are for sale for 900 DOLLARS wtf!
>>2722748Would be better if a friend brought a dread and the other a banjo and another a dobro but the days of everybody knowing an instrument are over. ( {:'^(I]))
>>2722866How big is that thing?
>>2723144nothing you can't lash to your pack
>>2723146Could probably strap one of these to it to ease the weight a bit.
i am the spoon man back from the last thread. i will repeat that real backwoods /out/ motherfuckers only carry spoons.if you are good enough with them you can get the whole campfire clapping and singing the choruses with you.my favorite songs to do with the spoons while i sing are irene goodnight, cotton fields, in the pines, look to my lue, and my lawd.
>>2724135Can you hit us up with a vocaroo?
I usually bring my ukulele when I go to the beach
>>2724195https://youtu.be/MF668mLiJTM?si=sHMHSs_QMkyhPiaU
>>2723144its pretty manageable because theyre designed for children and beginners (what beginner can afford a nearly 1000 dollar instrument but i digress..)>>2723146exactly! i just bungee cord it to my rucksack lol>>2723190actually thats a good idea
>>2724255>tfw no harp playing hippy gf to go out with Anyway, I have to say they look kinda neat (the harps), I wonder what they sound like.
>>2724294>tfwi know that feel bro. anyway it sounds half decent, the strings are nylon so like a classical guitar i guess a little softer sounding https://voca.ro/1nKaGlFNNoDoi think the nylon strings catch the wind better or the attack is softened more or something
>>2724135here you go. just some simple rhythms becuase its late and i dont wanna wake up my family with singing.https://voca.ro/141mERey337y
>>2724183>>2724613im retarded and responded to my own post instead of yours.
>>2724487>>2724613Breath taking
>>2715720what does being that guy mean
>>2724624It's what you don't want to be.
>>2724613https://youtu.be/5O14N7PQAsM?si=7nRN7dDC1_PrAzJK&t=153
>>2722676Have you heard about the nerdy gurdy? At ~300$ for the kit it's far cheaper and you can even build it yourself for just material cost should you want to. Seems like the only realistic way to own one without paying 2k$+ even if it's a bit more of a diy solution. I really want to make one myself, seems like it's quite involved but nothing about the process seems super complex either.
I might take my guitar if I go there by car or train or something. For backpacking I have two kalimbas, a super small one and a normal sized one. Not nearly as nice as a guitar, but enough to make some music while sitting near a campfire.
>>2724686you can get a decent oidy goidy for cheep on ebay from heirs would know it's not worth real money and they just want to get fucking rid of it. my friend bought a nice once for about $300 and I've scoped out functional ones for as little as $50if you're /diy/ and really want to build one though that's even better
>>2724688What the fuck that sounds amazing.There's a total of 3 listings on eBay where I live in my country and all 3 are 1500€+. Being able to get a cheap one for 300 would be amazing. I'll keep an eye out, but I highly doubt I'll be able to find one here.
>>2724613Quite amazing, well done anon!>>2724487Sounds absolutely lovely, would enjoy hearing this while out.Thanks for sharing!
>>2724621>>2724710thank you anons for appreciating my skills. heres another little recording with some singing. normally i would go into a call and response thing once i had established the verses but im alone right now and nobody is gonna wanna sing with me for the the anons.https://voca.ro/122Hij7TuGrZ
>>2724733>https://voca.ro/122Hij7TuGrZ
>>2724733Impressive anon, if I ever come across you in the woods I will jam along on my harmonica.
>>2715709your going to damage your guitar placing so close to the fire, it will warp.
>>2720620when it's out, it's called a fiddle, anon
>>2725116>missed opportunity for violin viol/out/
I want to buy a kalimba
>>2725242kalimbas are so comƒy. such a nice sound, tines to pluck right in the palm of your hand you feel the whole block vibrating when you play it. it's nice.https://youtu.be/7WHmCIjFBNs?si=20fSkbluJ2W8D1a9
>>2724913thanks anondefinitely our jam session would be legendary and inconsequential. thats part of the beauty of trail music in my opinion - its not filmed or recorded and only matters in the moment to those singing it.
>>2715709Shaker is good for walks. Relaxing sound that reminds me of waves crashing.You can put it in your cargo pocket to sync with your gait.
>>2725787The slide whistle definitely has more musical possibilities but the samba whistle is a banger to get into a strut.

>>2727450what the hell is this clumsy instrüment exactly?
>>2724255>what beginner can afford a nearly 1000 dollar instrument but i digressHarp is far from alone in that one though, most traditional instruments are at least that much for student models.
>>2727524>most traditional instrumentsViolin? Guitar? Banjo? Bullshit. You mean -larp- instruments like the hurdy gurdy or the bagpipe.
>>2727551Accordion
>>2727461GusliYou can keep your rations inside itTypical thing for an /out/ist to bring along
>>2715709>Do you guys bring any instruments with youNo, and you can fuck right off with yours too.
>>2727524I bought a decent violin for 100
I bring my didgeridoo sometimes. Doubles as a walking stickAnd I can use it to speak with fish.
>>2729047but anon that's appropriée du culture
I like harmonica but the tongue precision you need to play it and how dirty playing it is just ruins it for me
>>2729151>but anon that's appropriée du cultureDon't misculture him - aboriginals can post here too. Rayciss.
>>2729158>aboriginals can post
>>2715709>>2715748>>2717878>>2719482>>2721070>>2721076>>2724913>>2729152Cheers to my /out/door harmonica bros!Recently purchased a new one to replace the cheapo harmonica I've been practicing with, it was a little pricey but man, it's a joy to play. I'm far from good with this thing but I have so much fun playing around with it every day.Pic is my new harmonica. It's lovely to finally play one that isn't horribly out of tune.Once you get a little control of the single notes and some bends it just becomes so addicting.
>>2727551No, I mean regular classical/orchestral instruments on the university student level. Steel-string guitars are weird in the music world because you can get pretty good ones for under a grand but classical guitars, violins, brass and wind instruments, drums, etc. are all into the thousands for university-level stuff and way more for pro stuff.
I bring a guitar when doing my yearly STALKER larphttps://youtu.be/XuYxo66AbSI?si=25B99hiC7MuSxlaV
>>2729211i just cant do it. nurses always told me i had a fat tongue so maybe thats it
>>2729373Come on anon, you can just play single notes without using your tongue and still have a lot of fun. As long as your tongue isn't so fat that you choke on it, it's going to be fine.Please give it another chance.https://youtu.be/v4mDMJzsnoU
Would I be a dick if I brought an alto sax or something
>>2729266Surely you aren't suggesting anybody drags "university-level stuff" and "way more pro stuff" with them on a hike, nor is that price range what I would recommend to a "beginner" (the first post you replied to). Especially not when they plan on taking them /out/side.You can get alright, playable, decent-sounding violins (well, fiddles), guitars of any sort and banjos at a price range where it isn't a huge pain in the ass and the wallet when the rain and moisture eventually and inevitably gets to it (i.e. less than 300 bucks). Pic related, 270 bucks new and plays like a charm. As you said, steel-string guitars are even easier to find in this respect. I have a 12-string that I couldn't have paid more than 150 for at the time, and a Soviet-era parlor guitar that I picked up on the cheap (50 bucks lmao). Both sound fine and hold up well outside.I'm going to ignore the brass band and drum comment for obvious reasons: not /out/.
>>2731297Patrician choice
>>2715720if i was at a campground i'd rather someone have a guitar than a fucking bluetoothat least they'll just strum for maybe 30min until their fingers get sore and they stop.
>>2724624Getting hot cunny after mastering Wonderwall.
>>2720960Based. I've had a great time bringing my melodica into the woods and hammocking. I also like to bring my speaker with me and play along with my favorite songs.
