Im gonna go with the good ol' resonator guitar. Their is just something about the way the guitar cries when someone is sliding it, that makes me close my eyes and picture the delicate beauty of sitting on a stump encircled by bush. Whilst the sound of water is tunneling down a stream, plummeting against rocks and debris.

Either then the resonator guitar. I enjoy the occasional harmonica thrown into a tune, and maybe even a banjo. A good banjo pickin blues artist that actually just came to mind as i was writing this, was. Skip James.

I love the piano in blues music. You can beat a good, bluesy piano solo in swing beat.

Harmonica. It can blow like a train leaving town, or wail and cry like a lonesome lover.
More can be done with a harp than any other instrument.

I love the harmonica. I just wish I had the patience to practice mine.

Listen to some Little Walter or Sonny Boy Williamson (he could play two harmonicas at once, one with his mouth and the other with his nose!)

yeah i'm well versed with both of those guys, but saying that the harmonica is the most dynamic instrument in any genre is ridiculous.
