I have to write an essay on what the "best" musical instrument is. I will focus mainly on rock, punk and metal banRAB ranging anywhere from 60's to present day. A very vague topic in my opinion as no guidelines are given following this. So my idea is to head towarRAB:

What instrument draws you or gets your interest(generally) or the first instrument you listen for when listening to a new track or band?

Very vague i know.
 
yup most people would say guitar is easiest to write songs on and such. Plus it simply gets more attention than any other instrument from most people. A lot of classic songs are classic just because of what the guitar is doing, and not really any other instruments.
 
Guitar and Bass. i listen to not only if the guitarist can play, but if the bassist is actually trying to play an instrument and not just f*cking around. i hate it when i can't hear the bass in the songs
 
I'd say the guitar as its so versitle as there are not many other instruments that can used along with the voice alone to allow one person to make music. As well as its place corabined with other instruments.
 
The banRAB whole sound is what mostly attracts me, although the bass guitar and drums can also make me want to listen to a band.
 
it's drums for me.

it took me a long time to notice that it was the first element that i really grabbed onto. as a guitar player i'd always 'choose' to listen to the guitar predominantly, but that was a choice, it wasn't my natural listening reaction.
 
A really good guitar or some striking vocals can grab my attention, but it usually takes some kind of corabined effect of the whole band to actually keep that attention.
