yea, they're pretty much the same. your bass body looks a little longer and more slender.

i can also play piano (to some extent). my wife has a piano in our front room, but i don't know what kind it is.

you could get a keyboard for like $100
and a guitar for like $200

that doesn't seem expensive to me.
Of course before i had a job it did.

I play the clarinet, and my friend is teaching me how to play the piano, and will soon teach me drums. And then I'll have my other friend teach me how to play the guitar. I have a keyboard, but I have no idea how to play it. And I guess I'll save money fror the guitar when the time comes. Or ask for it for my bday or Xmas.....
