Theremin! No seriously the Hang drum! Ok, for real, the snare 'cause I'm a drummer but I enjoy didgeridoo too but it's impossible to play tough.

From the list, I'd have to agree!

No Hammond?
 
Oh, well.  I'd go with sax, but I can't choose between alto and tenor.  No vote.

Wurlitzer is just a above Rhodes in my opinion. But all electric pianos are my favourite instruments!
 
And ditto to the people who said this poll needs synthesizer. It is arguably the most important invention in music since the piano itself.

I don't see why the bits of a drum kit are listed separately - who would describe themselves as a hi-hat player?
 
A question came up on Eggheads last night - how many strings does a bass guitar normally have, 2, 4 or 6? The Egghead's response was "if it had 4 strings it would be a ukelele so it must be 6". Doh!

who are those eggheads?

Sound wise I would choose Synthesizer, Piano, Electric Guitar, or Electric Bass. Playing wise I choose the Bass. Much more fun to play than the other instruments on the list in my opinion. I choose the Bass because of its sound and playability.
