Your Dutch isn't getting any better over the years, Dean LOL

For me it's obviously bass guitar, but a double bass and a sax can grab and keep my attention just as easily.

Mellotron. In the right hands, it can be any instrument you can imagine. All in one package.

That is absolutely true, though naming all percussion instruments apart wouldn't do good to the poll I think.

percussion is not an instrument, they are a variety of instruments mostly.  
 
(I guess it could also be one instrument but they have names too, i.e. bongos, congas, maracas etc. even drums)

I don't have a favourite instrument. It entirely depends on the music and the person playing it.

Also, as others have mentioned, where's the oboe?
