In our 5th Edition campaign, one of our players briefly ran a Dragonborn bard who played the drums. It seemed rather fitting as well. ^_^ Alas, he got skewered by goblins a couple adventures in, but he'll be remembered.
As for your image, I like the way you've worked culture into the image - not just in the fellow's instruments, but also into his clothing, hair and so on. After all, bards are more than mere minstrels - they're purveyors of lore and life!
