Mandolin
La Forge plays the mandolin...
...but Worf was not a fan
A mandolin was a small, stringed guitar-like instrument.
When Q abducted the senior staff of the USS Enterprise-D in 2367 and displaced them into a Sherwood Forest-like environment, Geordi La Forge played the role of Alan-a-Dale.
Completely in character, he tried to play the mandolin, very much to the dislike of Worf, who smashed the instrument into bits and pieces, although he did apologize. (TNG: "Qpid")
