Guitar, specifically a Taylor 610CE custom shop (acoustic flattop). Been playing for about 14-15 yrs. now. I was lead singer/rhythym guitar in a band back in '96(college) and played a stint or two here or there with some guys, and even solo a few times. Mostly play now around the house and write songs here and there.

I play the skin flute. :D

But on a more serious note, I've been playing bass for over 10 years.

You just called yourself a homosexual, you are aware of that right?

I'm aware of the fact that I was kidding.

I knew that much, I'm just making sure you knew what you were saying. Usually when I use the skin flute joke, I talk about someone else.

I have been playing guitar for over 10 years. I am really damn good. I didn't play for about 2 years, but picked it back up a year ago...

I have a pretty rare collection of guitars...The Gibson V with Explorer headstock, BC Rich bich (US made, very early), Gibson Les Paul Studio (flat top), Fender P-Bass (not pictured), Takamine steel string (not pictured), Takamine nylon string (not pictured). I also use Mesa/Boogie amps. I will soon be selling it and trading up to a Marshall full stack for live shows.

I grew up playing death metal, but recently picked up the nylon to learn flamenco.

If anybody knows a drummer in San Diego I need one for a hardcore band (slayer, ministry, hatebreed) band I am putting together...

[Jand3rson]

Awesome butt-rock guitar, Trent!

I love guitars like that. The wilder the body, the better.

[CobraKai]

Trents fuckin' hardcore.
