Mine has to be the piano, I would love to own one (when I win the lotto). The pleasure I get from the sounds it makes, especially from all the Oldskool piano tracks, it just does it for me one time lol.

thats a tough one obviously drums and piano have to be up there, the drums for the beats ive loved forever, but i would love to be able to play the piano to the point i could just bash away jamming out whatever was in my head. but my favourite instrument would have to be the flute :cool: i have or never have had the desire to learn it, but i love the sound it makes. if its played right it can be funky as it comes :cool:

heres a couple of examples why it floats my boat.

I think you may struggle to find a real piano in any oldskool track.

If we are talking `real` instruments and therefore apart from a synthesiser the piano is also my favourite instrument.

The sound it creates just does it for me.

Banjo!

I have a 5 String Bluegrass Banjo but can't play it for shit!

Its so much harder than the Guitar! (Which I also can't play) lol

My younger bro however plays anything thrown at him, he is especially good on the Bass Guitar and Didgeridoo
