I still have my old plastic Bundy bass clarinet, a (now antique) Le Blanc wooden clarinet, and an old silver Elkhart clarinet. The first two play fine but the Elkhart needs to be repadded. It's in great shape otherwise.
Still have my old Vincent Bach 18 tuba mouthpiece, as well. I'd love to get my own tuba one of these days.
I've also played tenor sax and trombone, but always used school instruments.
I'd like to pick up a few other instruments and possibly build them. One is a dulcimer. Fairly easy to build and I'd love to play some traditional folk with it. My favorite jazz instrument is the vibraphone. I've run across some DIY plans for them and am interested in building one. I've done a bit of woodwork, so I think it wouldn't be too bad. The other instrument I like is the pedal steel - my favorite in country.
