In all seriouslyness...it's a dead tie between guitar and drums, with bass a close 2nd.

I'm more of a bass player myself nowadays. Switched from guitar about 6 months ago.

I see singing as my main instrument. It's what I started first and what I still if I had to chose one, would do. However it doesn't keep my from "just" guitaring and backu-up vocals in one band.

Lately its been jamming out on a kids xylophone while my daughter slams the keys of a kids piano, but when I am kid free its all guitar and differing amounts of fuzz.

Baritone over here :hello:

Yup, most of my music and all of my gigs are for classical singing, but when I pick up the guitar, boy do I love fuzz :ilf:

At a time I played bass because I couldn't find no one else to do it, nowadays I'm 100% into guitar, only time to tome I can borrow a bass from my brother. I bought drums for my wife, but I find them very difficult to play (And too noisy for having two little kids at home)

7 years of classical double-bass training makes me nothing but a bass player! Guitars seem too...small.

i voted Tabletop because for the last year and a half ive been strictly making noise and other weird sound scape type stuff with pedals and sound sources.

ive played guitar for about 8 years and still play often, but ive been pretty anti guitar when it comes to making my own music nowadays.

I play bass, it's my thing...but I usually grab a guitar first to lay out some stuff and twist knobs for hours...

The past 45 minutes I've been rotating back and forth between guitar and bass...swapped like 5 times.

I started playing the guitar and bass at the same time. In all the bands I've been in, I've been the singer/guitarer. I am quite a terrible percussionist, drums or otherwise.

I voted bass.

I love any instrument with strings especially if it will go into the bass or cello range.

I often go to the atlas of plucked instruments http://www.atlasofpluckedinstruments.com/index.htm

Thinking HMM with the right pickup or contact mic…

Come to think of it, include harmoniums, horns etc I pretty much love all instruments.

oh, you know... :p

i live down there. at the bottom. on the ground. low notes moving through the earth. the things you learn at ground level will still be relevant when the skyscrapers come crashing down...

bass says it. fuzz bass makes it so.
