What's the best instrument you've found so far?

[Sir Zorba]

My two personal favorites are the harp and the rock organ. So many of my favorite video game and anime songs sound GLORIOUS on them. The rock organ is best instrument 10/10.

[Pootisaurus Rex]

Music Box. Music Box everything (ocarina too).

[Kindlus]

lead electric guitar, guitar, steel drums, harmoncia, and harmonia.

[GatlinLaser]

flute is best

[Vyvyvn]

Some songs just seem to sound better on some instruments. (Note length/cascading)

[rpaxa.]

I found an ocarina on my last character.
Everything I played on it sounded like gold.

[treesy]

Hammered dulcimer. Sounds -amazing-.

[City Builder]

I found a Harmonica in my first game and just thought it was a decorative item and ended up destroying it when I needed some more space, not realizing I can actually play a tune on it.

Since then with many characters started I've only found a banjo and was slightly disappointed when I didn't find dueling banjo's on the list of tunes I could play with it.

Piano, to me, is better then the music box and rock (for got the word that is similer to piano).

[J1K]

i only ever found 2 a bass guitar and a koto guitar sounds better...anyway while we on the subject of instruments and songs is there a program to make mp3 files into abc files for me to play? i tryed changing the extension but that doesnt really work well

There's no easy way to convert mp3 to .abc files and it sounds like complete crap if you do manage it. What you need to do is find the songs in midi format, then convert those to .abc.
A friend does all the converting for me and I don't know what program he uses for it.

Which anime songs specifically @op?
I like the acoustic guitar the most, personally.

Angel Beats, Zero no Tsukaima, Attack on Titan, and a whole bunch of other things I dont recognize. My friend occasionally sends me a zip file with all his songs in it.

[thegrandpoobah [GGS]]

keytar that is all.

[DiesHorribly]

me and my buddys have found quite a few aswell on our MP adventures, there is still quite a few we missing tho. Darn fun tho jam together :D

Get the 1 handed instruments and use 2 instruments at once, for example both microphones. It creates a MASTERPEICE

[MassConnect]

I used Maestro to make .abcs when I still played LOTRO, but I haven't really messed with music in this game. Maestro probably isn't going to work well on Starbound.

I'm still finding new instruments, to my surprise, though I've been collecting one of each since the beginning. I'm probably partial to the clarinet. Haven't found an oboe, though, or cello, string bass, viola, tuba, french horn, euphonium, etc. Trombone. A lot of similar things for some reason, instead of actual variety.
