Outputs: a link to the musician's page, followed by a small instrument icon with tooltip (if they have a primary instrument set).

If the musician has no instrument set, it falls back to a plain link (same as the old {{Musician}} template).
The first form queries the musician's Primary instrument property. The second form overrides it with the specified instrument.

Inline template for linking to a musician with their instrument icon. Queries the musician's Primary instrument semantic property and displays a small icon with a tooltip.

Usage

{{ShowInstrument|Cory Walker}}

With instrument override:

{{ShowInstrument|Jake Stargel|bass}}

The first form queries the musician's Primary instrument property. The second form overrides it with the specified instrument.

Rotation

Banjo, guitar, mandolin, and ukulele icons are rotated -30° to look natural at a playing angle. Fiddle, bass, dobro, tin whistle, autoharp, and vocals are displayed upright.
