Known Bard Instruments

This is taken from EqSongs

Important note on the effect of magic instruments: Gordon recently posted that the reason our instruments do not list the +% is that not all songs are affected the same by magic instruments.  With this in mind I will be retesting the instruments I have using the only the following songs: Percussion - Chant of Battle; String - Niv's Melody of Preservation; Wind - Crission's Pixie Strike; Brass - McVaxius Berserker Crescendo.

The baseline for the magic instruments is their store bought equivalent, ie Kelin's Seven-stringed Lute will add 20% more to a song then a store bought lute will, except for the Singing Short Sword.
