The anime sure is endorsed with well know musical instruments thats way beyond high school level . Hardcore fans sure impressed by Yamaha Al Foster Signature Hipgig drums used with Zildjian cymbals, that'll cost a lot in MYR. I dunno about the bass but maybe it's a Fender's Precision with dark colour. Still no clue about the keyboard.
Comparing this to the previous music-oriented anime(beck etc), this one lack lots of terminology but i think it'll attracts more fans to know a little more about band music.
The bass is a Jazz Bass . But no idea which series is it . Looks like Mio receives the most attention in here.
Er...Mugi and Mio is the *pretty one* though ... That's what I think . For a beginner to have Fender Jazz Bass and Gibson Les Paul ... Dam Japanese are good.
k-on kinda failed as music anime. example like saki, it only has mahjong in it but main attraction is moe'tard stuff. same thing apply to k-on. music is like side dish n can live without any music anthology. u dun really care if Saki cheat with extra mahjong tile on her hand or Mio can pick her bass with both of her hand on the mic.

I never expected K-on to be music/band animu.......its just the setup for the school slice of life. Expecting K-on to b music/band animu is just like expecting Clannad to be a theatre/acting club animu.
Well...Just like some of the forumers said , It's slice of life . You can't really go wrong with the storyboard with exams and stuffs coming around. In real life , students start a band with a lot of factors blocking them to be successful just like K-On. If they are just going all on the music , It's just too good to be true. Schools with no exams ? Japan's standard is high.
All you h8ers need to listen up. K-ON changed my life. I used to be a loser NEET like you guys, not bathing for weeks and posting shit like "3D is pig disgusting" at every opportunity. But that's all behind me thanks to K-ON. From the moment I saw the first episode I was moved. Yui joining the light music club inspired me to change my self-destructive habits. I printed out a picture of Mio on iron-on transfer paper and made a t-shirt and left my house for the first time in god knows how long. Before, whenever I went out in public, I felt like I was invisible. Now, however, everywhere I went people would be like "You like K-ON? That shit's pretty awesome, dawg."
I even found a Japanese girlfriend thanks to K-ON. I'm not talking about some pigfaced kiss-sui type shit either. For the past few weeks I've been scoring some high-class, Mugi-chanesque *****. She introduced me to her father (who loves K-ON too) and now I have a six-figure salary job so I can buy all the K-ON! merchandise that comes out.
K-ON truly is the greatest anime ever. If you fags would just give it a chance you may find the inspiration to be more than just a virgin leech on society.
Okay ... That's pretty cool . Thanks for sharing !
