Talk:Instruments

From Homestar Runner Wiki

Some of these (Carol) could be shortened if we wanted to keep their own pages, but alot of these don't seem to quite warrent their own page, but should be on here in some context. Also I like the idea of being able to see who plays what all in one spot. - Ilko Skevüld's Teh C 00:07, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup

This article is in need of some work. Mainly gnome work, but...

1. Links. I saw 4 Strong Bad links, and correct me if I'm wrong, he doesn't play any instruments! (Teenage SB doesn't count.) We need to remove some links, and possibly relink a little to remain the "one link per page" thingamagig.
2. Image. The page does need some sort of image.
3. Length. The mini-articles are too long. Methinks we should shorten all existing articles mini-article length (I.E. Carol).
4. Apearances. That's all it says. I think there needs to be some sort of... boldness. Even if it is boldness.

Anything else? Bluebry 01:17, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Agreed on all accounts. I would like to see an appearance list for Carol added, and some effort made to make the whole thing look/sound a bit more consistant. (yea, I know I was lazy. . .) - Ilko Skevüld's Teh C 01:29, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Why an appearance list for Carol? It has a page of its' own, which has more information? -J2

[edit] Transfer

I feel this page is pretty obvious information, but, if needed could EASILY fit on Cool Tapes. Bluebry 03:39, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Go ahead. I'm don't really mind. I just felt as an instrument it should've earned a place in the items section.

Anyone else have some sort of existing opinion that exists... existential-wise? Bluebry 03:46, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Well, Strong Sad's Guitar has its own article and only appeared once. I think we should keep this. Loafing 03:46, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

True, but, I feel that one has more information to it. I feel this one can be stored on Cool Tapes, if wanted. Bluebry 03:50, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

I think we should keep it. My philosiphy: The more articles the merrier. Plus, Strong Sad's guitar does have it's own page. Keep it. --Theyellowdart 03:51, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

I don't mind keeping this page, but if it does stay, then I think The Cheat's drum set should also get its own page. kai lyn 02:54, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

How about if we put a page together for all the Character's Instruments? - Ilko Skevüld's Teh C 00:03, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Right Handed The Cheat

It's only interesting in that the other 3 drummers are all drumming left handed. You're right that it's probably not worth a mention.- ISTC 01:15, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Well, are they? Teenage Strong Mad isn't; his drum set is set up traditionally. The Blacksmith's drum set is more notable for its minimalistic makeup than the placement of the snare to his right. (Actually, the snare is normally almost directly in front of the drummer, the hi-hat to the left, and the toms to the right.) The Ugly One's left-handedness is totally based on how the floor tom attacks her from her left, when it is normally on the drummer's right. However, look at the long shot of the drumset. The hi hat is on her left, and as the drawing is crude we cannot really tell what's a tom and what's a snare. I'd bet the drum closest to the hi hat is the snare, though, which would make this a very traditional drum set setup. So I'd argue that she plays right-handed, as that's how the setup is. (The floor tom might have run around in front, maybe.) So I don't think iut's notable that The Cheat sets up his drums normally. - Qermaq - (^T/C)  01:37, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Concur, thus the qestion is do we pull all the left handed references from the other drummers, who really aren't shown to be either handed? - ISTC 17:29, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tables?

How about adding tables on this page. I think it would make it look more organized.-- Bkmlb(talk to me·stuff I did) 04:16, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

So, opinions?-- Bkmlb(talk to me·stuff I did)

I like it — it seems a lot more organized and complete. Good work! Trey56 06:17, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] By Instruments

Would a page or section sorted by instruments be of any benefit? I pose this question to you, the reader. --Stux 19:50, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Limozeen

Is it intentional that the instruments played by Limozeen are omitted from this page?  Green Helmet 15:11, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

It's not just Limozeen that's missing. It seems like all of the major bands (Limozeen, Taranchula, sloshy, Brainkrieg, etc.) aren't on the page. I'm guessing it's because they're already covered elsewhere, but I don't know. 24.63.145.232 00:27, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Weeping into the wrong end of a saxaphone

what about strong sad's sax that he weeps into the wrong end of in independent? ----J∃ffJMan 12:46, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

If you do that, we... might've already? And you're me. ----J∃ffJMan 15:31, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

[edit] Marzipan's costume guitars?

When Marzipan dresses up as someone she has a guitar A LOT, so should we include one big image of all of marzipan's guitars? ----J∃ffJMan 15:31, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
