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

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

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.

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

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

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...

Duhhhh that was a tough one ConfusedSmile

Picked piano slightly over electric and accoustic guitars, melotron and violin.
 
Violin is the most overlooked though. There's nothing like it when it comes to generate emotions. And it's quite the hardest to play too, perhaps with piano.

Didgeridoo needed a vote.
 
Bagpipes should be there too.  Put the two together and it would be awesome.
