No, it's too easy and is for people who aren't good enough to get into a band playing guitar.

no, the most /fa/ rock instruments are the Hammond organ and the Moog synthesizer.

Nothing comes close.

In fact, those are some of the most /fa/ instruments of all time.

If you're really good at it then yes

otherwise it's kek class

Rhythm guitar and singing most /fa/
Lead guitar if you're versatile
Synth/Pads if you're pivotal
Drums if you have style while playing

I kind of meant in the conventional 4 piece sense, but those are deffay effay. I'd put the Mellotron among those.

What about classical?

>conventional 4 piece sense
I think guitar/bass/keyboards/drums is just as conventional as guitar/guitar/bass/drums.

Oh yeah, mellotron is top-tier.

Any guitar or conventional instrument fags here wish they had some classical background?

bass can easily act as a primary instrument:

It maybe a secondary instrument but I think that disputing it's existence is hugely under rating the instrument's presence. Way I see it is an instrument that is a instrument for me just to put across the musical ideas that I have in my head. It's just a means to an end for me anyway.

Get a looper, play chords on the bass and then play a solo over the recorded chord changes.

>keyboards are used only in dad rock
You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. Keyboards are just as prevalent in rock as they always were.

It's literally a primary instrument. No song without the rhythm section.
