25. Forget about all that macho shit and learn how to play guitar!
Thus Spake Mellencamp.

I mean really. There's nothing to debate. Consider the guitar: her curves and slender waist resemble nothing less than a beautiful woman. You caress her in your arms, set her upon your lap. You stroke her strings, sometimes gently, sometimes with more urgency as she begins to wail. When you touch her in the right spot, she really screams. She has many moods. She can be soft and sensuous, loud and rowdy.

Top that, Trombone Boy.

60. That's not to say that I think the instrument looks like a hot guy...
or that I would choose a sex partner based on what kind of musical instrument they played. Or that I'm interested in searching the net for pictures of hot men posing seductively as / with the instrument.

I simply find the sound it makes the most seductive.



Some of the responses in this thread are truly puzzling.

39. Piano.
In my experience, trombonists are goofballs, trumpeters have a high asshole component, etc., etc., etc. Most brass players seem to be deficient in one way or another.

71. Definitely the 'cello
Though I'm not sure how she could play it in that position.

The Bach 'cello suites or the Elgar 'cello concerto in particular make me fall instantly in love with the player.

46. You're kidding?
Certainly not if you're a guy, I wouldn't have thought.

I think the violin is about as sexy as the clarinet, my own instrument. I.e. not at all.

Violin gets you in the position of being friends with all the hot girls who think of you as just a friend.

Guitar gets you laid.

68. Creative Soundblaster X-Fi soundcard for a computer.
Don't know if it actually counts as an "instrument", but it can replicate many musical instruments and then some...

But then I am a geek and technology for me is more of a turn-on than musical instruments.
