Unlimited Musical Instrument Geek Thread

[AFK]

Thanks to my gig last night with the improv gang, I'm in musical instrument geek mode.  They've acquired some new instruments since I last played with them, and of course, I want them all.  One of my favorites was the Marxophone

It's this really cool Zither with keys with little hammers.  Has a pretty interesting sound and it looked like it was about 100 years old.

There was also something like this, except it had a more standard trumpet mouthpiece and an extra valve.  Can't remember what it was called.  Apparently these were popular, or at least more common, in Nazi Germany.

That's pretty awesome looking.

The sounds is pretty neat too.  Sounds more like a reed instrument than a trumpet.

The guy with the long blonde/whitish hair is my music professor from the college days.  What you see on those tables is probably, I'm being generous here, about 25% of what's in the music room.  The guy has something like a dozen different keyboards/organs.  All kinds of drums.  All kinds of weird brass instruments. 

He's like the Willy Wonka of music.
