There are so many, but a hurdy gurdy has gotta be up there. Played by someone who knows more than the basics, it sounds like something a medieval king would demand played to relax.
(They’re also among the most expensive instruments out there, as the only makers today are extremely talented individual ones; no big company like Fender or anything makes them. If you see one, you know it was handmade by a master.)
I also love the sound of the Crwth. It’s from Wales, and is sort of like a regional spinoff/precursor to the violin.
Dual-rectified electric guitar.
IDK why, but the hurdy gurdy has a pretty alluring sound, in my opinion. So I’m probably going with either that or acoustic guitar.
Edit:
I really like this song using hurdy gurdy because to me it kinda sounds like a soundtrack piece for some prison action film.
I am also a fan of the hurdy gurdy. Here’s my entry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypuaJLHK_LQ
Damn! That hit hard! Thank you for that one.
Piano or Violin for solo instruments, but I love a good concerto or symphony.
Electric guitar.
Not a single instrument, but I love a horn section, too.
Drums - pretty much any single by Street Drum Corp
Probably acoustic guitar tbh, I love acoustic covers, but Piano is amazing too, and electric guitar.
Acoustic covers are just so raw and nice to listen to.
Vibraphone and marimba
Very close, steel drum
I’m big fan of pianos (but not all piano genres) and I have learned that I really like piano run through a phaser and doubled with a Japanese koto
Gawd I love koto…
Piano. Supertramp, “From Now On”.
And the sax in that tune is pretty great also.
I dunno about favourite but Kamancheh sounds pretty lovely
Saxophone. But not always because it’s smooth. Because sometimes it ROCKS…
…Or because it’s crazier than anything you’ve ever heard!
Trumpet. I think it’s cause that’s the instrument I first learned music on in elementary school.
Harpsichord. Its just such a nice and unique timbre
