i am not a musician, i do have some listening and most of time i wish i could play hhahaha , but i am a bit late to learn i suppose so i am happy my children are initiate want to know more about music, music takes lot of patient and passion and i think they are beautiful. Any instrument have their own beauty.

So dont worry about whether you get any support or not, know what yourself want and interested with are matters the most. At the end of the day, you live your own life...

cello newbie, it's never too late to learn anything... it may be a little hard coz we're not as flexible but as long as u have the passion, it's never too late. better late than never n like u said, "u live ur own life"... besides, practising with ur children may be fun too. ^^

Alright. SungeiWang's Chamber Music got such painted violin, I saw blue painted, not black but I told me that they can paint any colour for you but needed to order and wait.

For your information, painted instrument (only applies to string instrument) are the worst. It looks good but sounds bad.

Disagree, I play my electric guitar aggressively. tongue.gif
