Musical Instruments Suggestions
Music Instruments should receive like toys,minipets ect. their own tab under the Character Menu.
Alot of stuff in GW2 thats currently an inventory item could be removed from the inventory, if Anet would change these thigns simply into account bound character menu items, which you can then select from the menu to use them.
That we we could remove alot of unnecessary things from our inventory.
But in general i think there are mainly also other things, which Music instruments need to be improved.
1st) the whole system around Music Instruments needs to be improved, so that it is easier possible for anyone to play/replay good sounding melodies by some kinmd of “Auto Player” which plays for you automatically the input “Song Sheets”, which could be craftable items, which you can inscript with “Songs” and give these items then like Pets Names which you see then in the menu where you need to choose a Song Paper for the Auto Player
When a player uses this way to play a Song, people can see then at the Character name pop up a Symbol that tells players, the Song is currently “Auto Play”.
If somene plays manually very good, then naturally no symbol appears.
The Music instruments need to get improved with some kind of ABC System, or whatever, that makes it possible to add to the crafted Song Sheet your outside of the game scripted Song Notes", which tells the game how to play the notes with the used instrument.
Because only this way will we be able to receive fluid sounding melodies without the lag that comes from manually shifting the pitches back and forth permanently every few seconds ect.
There are some much older MMORPGS out there, which show already, what was possible alot of years ago.
I think anet with GW2 could make that alot better.
Next point to improve is the Guitar, seriously, its the absolute worst sounding instrument of them all, that sounds absilutely not like a Bass Guitar.
For Instance, thats here is the sound how our Bass Guitar in the game should sound

instead we have this terrible sounding stuff …

which sounds more like a mixture of a dirty smoky broken car motor/ broken piano kind of thing

Despite this criticism, I’d love to see more Music instruments for the future.
GW2 needs:
- Violins
- Xylophones
- Pan Flute/Ocarinas
- Clarinets
- Tamborines
- Rattles
- Saxophone
- Triangle
- Cello
- Erhu
- Step Shoes
We need to get the good thigns together, so that its actually possible to play together a great orchestra
That would be awesome, if we could get in game enough good musicions together with instruments that play all together ingame orchestras
Personally I like the idea behind sub classes ~ quoted from Chris Whiteside

And if I might add to your list of instruments, they should also include an electric (albeit, gas-powered) guitar to go with the bass guitar, and maybe some kind of Asuran-made portable turntable.
