I already play drums, so I guess I can't go with that one.

So I imagine it probably would have been Keyboards/piano..... I currently noodle with it, but I would like to actually learn how to "play" it.

Good question!

Saxaphone was my first love but the sax was bigger than I was when I started. Piano would be right up there too.

I voted bass, but it could have been drums too. I dabble at both of them and enjoy 'em both - just not quite as much as the guitar.

I'd also have to agree with Les (even though he may have said it jokingly) about the bagpipes - I've always thought they were a cool-sounding instrument!

Keyboards / piano for me. I love to hear a lot of music by David Benoit (the musician, not the basketball player ).

I play a little blues harp, actually looking for harp lessons when I found this site. Would love to start violin again one day, maybe when I am all grown up.

well I'd like to be able to call my voice an instrument, but thats never going to happen.

probably clarinet or sax
got to sample woodwind and brass at school for half a year (Sort of a sample intro thing so you could choose) I choose clarinet and dug it, couldn't afford the extra fees though.

Piano would be good to, can play a bit
