I am a huge fan of the MiniMoog, but I don't see that on there....in fact, how can you have a poll like this and not include the MiniMoog?  Or the Oberheim for that matter...

Mellotron, Didgeridoo, and violin are my favorites.

I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

I came here to berate you for not including the didgeridoo as an option but lo and behold you have Tongue. Anyway my mind is torn between alto sax, piano, violin and cello. I picked one at random out of the four and it was cello so that gets my vote.
Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal.

I'm biased since it's my main instrument that I play and teach to others: electric guitar.

Interesting selection.
 
Big fan of percussion and reeds...but I'll go with Cowbells just because I don't think any one else will give it a vote.

electric organ (hammond, farfisa) is an incredible instrument. I see myself enjoying lots of songs just because of the good organ sounds in them.

Yeah, but one drum piece alone doesn't match the awesomeness of a bassoon. Wink

I have always been a fan of the electric bass.It is an incredibly versatile instrument, and, when effectively used, it adds a lot of interest to any musical composition.

Piano. It is the quintessential instrument, it's used in all types of music, and it sounds damn good when played well.

Can't believe there's no synth here.

Mini Moog.
