 the key is in the placement of the word "either". each parallel pair should have the exact same types of words to fill in the blanks of "either ____ or_____". 

A. either. . .or. . . 
to play keyboard like Stevie Wonder 
to play guitar . . .like Leo Kottke 

B. either. . .or. . . 
I'd want to play keyboard like Stevie Wonder 
I'd want to play guitar . . .like Leo Kottke 

C.either. . .or. . . 
keyboard like Stevie Wonder 
guitar . . .like Leo Kottke 

D.either. . .or. . . 
play keyboard like Stevie Wonder 
. . . .guitar . . .like Leo Kottke 

pick the one that doesn't have exact pairing of word types.
The first sentence uses the correct parallel structure.
