What is your favorite musical instrument?

My favorite is the electric guitar. I love playing it though I'm not the greatest. Just like you, I love rock (Mostly heavy metal). The sound of a guitar squealing is just awesome to me. It calms me down and keeps me sane.

I love drums too and always wished i learned it back in school but sadly I didn't. Was the same with guitar and keyboards. It's sad I wasted my younger days just playing and never learning any of those instruments :(

My favorites are Piano and Guitar. I can play the piano. I don't play guitar but i love the music from the instrument. When I play the piano or keyboard I escape reality Drums are cool. I like em in music but not my thing. I understand what you mean when you say you play them to get rid of stress. I can just picture something playing drums to rid of their anger. Rock on!

my favorite musical instrument is the violin...not only is its shape mesmerizing but also its sound. about two or three years ago our choir had the privilege of being accompanied by a violin ...we were so awed that we forgot to sing!!!

Unfortunately I don't play any musical instrument T_T but given a chance, I would love to learn a thing or two abouy flutes and violins :D Whenever I go watch orchestra or musical-related shows, my ears always listens to flutes and violins solos :)

I used to play the piano. I've been playing it since i was a kid. When I was in college, I got jealous with a friend who plays the violin so well. So, i forced my parents to buy me one and i enrolled myself in violin lessons. but a few years later, i lost interest on playing those instruments. and without knowing I also started to lost my sanity. :D i turned out to be someone else i really don't like. :( And now, I want my sanity and my old self back!!! :D I need to play again! :P

to play, it would be the piano, but i really dont play it well. to listen to however, besides the piano, i am a big jazz fan so i really like to listen to the tenor sax.

My favorite instrument is flute. I am still learning it but not getting enough time to practice. While I play, I really enjoy the sound and it gives me a very pleasant feeling that is difficult to express in words.

We have the same line of taste. I like drums. It can really make my body move. It helps my body a lot. I am really sweating out if I play drums which is a great advantage in my part since I am losing weight.

Electric guitar because of adrenaline rush with all that noisen it produce, Violin- I love violin when its used for melodic purposes but I also love it when its played fast. Shamisen-Its a Japanese string instrument and its usually used for anime themesongs,I love its sound because its very epic. It has samurai ninja vibes. Flute-Flute is very calming to the soul,so i really love the songs that uses flutes.

I like this discussion! My favorite musical instrument is piano/keyboard. I learned playing because I took music as a course back in college. Playing piano makes me feel proud of myself because making music is my passion. I like how I'm being appreciated with my playing and I use it in church to accompany congregational and choral singing.

Like many others, I like violins very much. The first time I heard the song" Liang Zhu", I fell in love with it. The tunes are so beautiful and perculiar that until now I can still make a new start once I'm frustrated by hearing the song. Though it's a song praising love, to me, it's more like an inspiring melody which gives me courage and strength. Despite this, the shape of a violin is so elegant and graceful just like a fair lady,and no one can escape from its temptations.

i love drums and guitar but i love the violin to listen to the most its the most soothing I feel and really stirs up something inside of me

My favourite instrument is Guitar. It can create cool and breezy environment. Of course it is too romantic also

I like to play the electric guitar. I like that it has some awesome effects and its not that hard to play.

I love so many instruments, it's hard to pick a favorite. I used to play a clarinet when I was young, and I loved it. But it started to push my teeth out, so the dentist said I should switch to brass. They felt a baritone horn was about right. I was nine years old and it was almost bigger than I was. I liked the clarinet better to play (It wasn't as heavy in parades, for one thing.) The baritone can be really beautiful when played by a master. But I like to listen more to the trumpet. There is so much one can do with it. I also enjoy listening to the flute. Same with the violin and the mellower cello. The truth is, though, that I like to hear them all together in a band or orchestra with the other instruments. When I was older I taught myself just enough about how to play the classical guitar and piano to meet my own needs. I love listening to the classical guitar when I'm trying to relax and sleep. So how do I pick a favorite?

Wow!! I really admire people who can hit or play the drums well. Actually I'm a frustrated drummer. It's my best friend who influence me to like drums. She's a drummer and I am really really proud of my best friend. However, among the musical instruments, my most favorite is guitar. If your curious what kind of guitar, maybe the plain one. Hmm.. what I mean is that I am not referring to bass guitar or electric. Just the simple one. It's because I know how to play it. However, I do not practice playing it anymore lately. But I still know how to strum and perform different chords..

I've always been dreaming of playing drums but in reality I'm playing piano. My dad wanted me to learn piano so even if I like drums i ended up playing piano. I am also fascinated with saxophone, it's a romantic instrument. :)

Hi, i also vote for drums. Drum is an instrument that stands out from the others, requires great physical energy to play it and and it is good to release stress of a hard day's work. I did a course and i can consider me a novice drummer. Last year i have bought a new one drum with double pedal, really cool and overall have a good build quality. Now i enjoy to play it in the weekend !

Viney, have you seen the band Godsmack with thier battle of the drums? Pretty powerful beats which I know you will enjoy and since you enjoy drumming you should also check out the Scottish and Orisha drumming, both are just as enertaining.
