Keyboards especially the harpsichord. Haven't made up my mind about the piano though. it's OK as a percussion instrument but not as the featured instrument

Trumpet? Violin? Cello? Something is missing from this poll.

everyone's answers have been pretty prog so far.

but out of the traditional rock instruments, the humble bass guitar.

Cello, then violin. I think you should at least add "strings", "woodwind" and "brass" to your poll.

Guitar, the "feeble instrument" that Fripp, McLaughlin, Holdsworth, Howe, Gilmour, Zappa, and Stolt play.

It's the violin but it's not on the list and since i've been listening to a lot of flutes this week i voted for flutes. I'm afraid some other day i'll read this and regret i didn't vote for guitar.

Keyboards! "L'Instrument Maitre " as we say in French.
Honestly when you just think about the musical possibilities, The only instruments that can produce harmony and melody are The Guitar and Keyboards.
And on a Keyboard you've 2 hands on guitare you're limited with one, a guitar has only 4 to 5 scales a keyboard has on average 7.
And a guitar doesn't have all the subtleties of the keyboard crescendo poco poco, tempo primo, Con anima ,Forte and all the other italian words.
Lost in the south of france:
