Your favorite instrument

[LarenzoAOG]

Mine's the Didgeridoo.

So tell me what's yours and add a little sound bite of that instument being played.

 

[arugulino]

Didj is on my list too. I love cello and viola. Recorder, any number of flutes, and pan pipes. Various drums, especially water drums. A large range of plucked instruments, like guitar, lute, bouzouki... my favorite is probably the oud.

 

[SideSlyGuy]

I just love the sound of a classic Piano, or Violin. Nothing crazy or anything, but damn I just love that sound.

 

[Anarchemitis]

Cello. As sophisticated as the art from which they are crafted.

 

[Weaver]

Mine is the violin! It can make such beautiful sounds.

The guitar used here:
<youtube=SmVAWKfJ4Go>

I wanna say its acoustic.

 

[Jazzyjazz2323]

Violin as much as I love guitar and all things concerning it the sound of a violin always moves me.

 

[Falseprophet]

Pipe organ. Very challenging and an epic sound.

 

[Neuromaster]

Played violin for 7 years and viola for 3. They're both favorites, but I might lean toward the deeper, richer sound of the viola.

 

[TeeBs]

Usually the piano.

 

[Zipa]

Brian May's Red special guitar. IT has such a great tone to it.

 

[Singularly Datarific]

Gaaaah! String lovers! *glares*
(Well, I just don't like string instruments because they sound like CRAP in the wrong hands. For reference, watch a middle school beginning orchestra.)
My heart resides with Brass, specifically this:

Here's why:
I think these things are damn versatile, to be honest. Throw one of these in anything, they'll find a way to sound good. (Cept techno)

 

[beniki]

My Rockband controller.

It's got lightning stickers on and everything!

 

[Ultraman950]

Good ol' fashioned accoustic guitar.

Assuming electric doesn't count, of course. XP

 

[Koroviev]

Pipe organ. Very challenging and an epic sound.

This is really cool.

 

[Astoria]

I love the sound of a bass guitar. Played right it can change your heart rhythmn *sighs with happiness*.

 

[The Last Parade]

I'll always love the sound of a fender telecaster =)

 

[Doctor What]

Definitely the bassoon.

I can't really find any good youtube videos of it.

 

[Blemontea]

Concertina ... AKA a squeezebox WHICH i finally got one for Christmas. I love the sounds it produces and the overall size.
not the best example but i wanted to show something outside the usual stereotype.

 

[Lilani]

I rather enjoy the piano, harp, hurdy-gurdy, bagpipe, and violin. Of those, I guess the piano would be my favorite, considering it is the instrument that I have the most music of that features the instrument being played completely on its own.
