instruments in a bandThat really depends on what kind of band you want to start.

Jazz combos usually are built around a bass\piano\drum base but can add anything from guitar to brass to more exotic instrumentation like harps and woodwinds. Orchestra bands can range in size from trios and quartets to dozens of instrumentalists of all different types.

Rock bands can get by with three basic instruments: lead guitar, bass and drums. Usually, a four-piece band will add a rhythm guitar as well, and a five-piece might add a keyboard or a second lead guitar. There are a lot of different configurations for bands, though, so it really depends on the sound you're going for.

Also...a sax player would be nice in a rock band. Bluegrass needs at least one banjo player, and country needs a fiddler.

You can play Rock Band with only guitar, only drums, or only the microphone, but it's a whole lot more fun when there's two Guitars (one electric and one bass), the drum set, and the mic. :)
