The Worst Musical Instrument

[Nitefly]

Has to be the clarinet. It's mere existence offends me, let alone when it's played in an repulsive jazzy fashion. All clarinets should be burned along with those that play them.

Can you think of a worse instrument than a clarinet?

Did you mean the recorder?

How can this offend you?

 

[HecFam]

What ever the crap this is.

 

[neil3k]

bagpipes

 

[Kosmiche]

Has to be this

On a more serious note...probably steel drums. Hateful.

Steel drums are totally awesome

 

[davido_labido]

ocarina

 

[PhillyDee]

The triangle.

Steel drums are awesome!

Well that is only an instrument in the same was the maracas are an instrument. It's just something that makes a noise.

For me it is easily the Accordion, it just sounds like ass.

 

[RevBillyG]

bagpipes

Agreed

Commando theme says you're wrong. Dead wrong.

The absolute worst instruments are those little bugle kazoos that kiddie marching bands play.

 

[Uhtred]

bagpipes

+1 It's impossible to play in tune so I don't class it as musical.

 

[Lysander]

The triangle.

Steel drums are awesome!

Just not fair. It's a percussive piece. Very minimalist but it serves a function.

As for bad instruments. God, I don't know.

I really dislike the flute.

 

[Vonhelmet]

Bagpipes get a pass purely for their fleeting awesome use in the BSG score.

 

[robfosters]

Harmonica. The mere sound makes me run cold and go goosebumpy.

A truly offensive sound.

 

[Nitefly]

Did you mean the recorder?

How can this offend you?

Because the instrument just sounds like a bit farty bum. Farting out wet smelly notes.

Gross. Hate the clarinet.

Yamaha CS-80.

100kg, goes out of tune if breathed upon.
