Well, I voted for Tuba because I am proficient on it and it wouldn't get any other votes, BUT in reality I play many instruments and am proficient on a few:

Guitars (acoustic, electric, classical)
Bass Guitar
Tuba
Vocals

Those are what I'm what you could say proficient at, although not a master on any of them.  I've taken lessons though for all of them though, and by proficient I mean I can play almost whatever I want really.  Just not the professional stuff.

I'm hoping to learn flute sometime soon.  That would be fun.

Proficient in Trumpet - I have been playing for almost 5 years now, and take part in Marching Band, Jazz band, concert band, and musical pit orchestras. I also have taken (and still take) lessons.

A bit of Piano - I took lessons for two years, but couldn't fit it in with my Marching Band schedule. I wish I could still take lessons.

Self-Taught at Guitar - Not very good at all! I'd like to get lessons to learn the proper techniques and such, but I haven't got the time with my trumpet playing.

I'm also taking music theory classes this year, and hope to get a dual major in college involving music (and computer science).

So, yes, I'm a friggin' huge band and music nerd :D
Oh, by the way, hi everyone! First post!

I do guitar, sing, play drums or any percussion, piano, bass.

I've done all these things in bands.

The first instrument I learned to play was the saxophone (tenor is the best!). Even though I don't actually have one anymore and haven't played one in almost four years, it's still my favorite (I'm saving up to buy one). For about the past five years or so I've been playing the guitar and I have three of them. And no sax. Go figure.

Have studied the piano for 6 years and after this tought myself to play guitar. After  music-school piano studies, I quit playing the instrument for a while and focused on the guitar but now I enjoy playing piano as well as my electric and acoustic guitar. Voted for guitar though, because it's my 'main' instrument. Would like to learn playing a LOT of instruments, but well, can't do everything I guess...but aah, how I would like to play cello...

Well.... I've play acoustic guitar for my own pleasure for 17 years, have had 10 years of piano lessons so far, and recently picked up bass guitar and started performing with a pre-existing band. You might consider making this poll accept multiple selections.

Guitar.....these days I play strictly classical guitar; I dont even have an electric anymore. I find that CG is much more rewarding (to me) and a hell of alot easier to just pick up and a piece of music.
