Best SID instrument?

Well, topic kinda says all.
The tune itself doesn't have to be good at all, only the instrument(s). ;)

'Impulse' by Taki has some pretty awesome 16x drums.
And just to make it a bit less complicated to choose instruments: NO SAMPLES.

Everything. That means, well, all the things you mentioned... :)

Hard Track by my danska buddy, JEFF. Great snare sounds and weird distorted bass! The Help of God, the Love of the People, the Strength of Søren Lund! ;) Danes will know what I'm on about...

Also the drums at the start of this track...

The lead instrument in the Ocean Loader tune v1 by Mr. Galway is ace, but the way it's used counts for a lot too.. Love the way he phrases the melody..

Personally I just love the old Hubbard tam sound.. That's cool, but I'm probably pretty alone on the preference :)

http://www.c64.org/HVSC/MUSICIANS/D/Daf/Psychomusicdelirkill.sid ultra fast glissandos and fuckin' A sounds in general

http://www.c64.org/HVSC/MUSICIANS/D/Daf/Opium_2.sid great imitation of soprano voice

http://www.c64.org/HVSC/MUSICIANS/S/SounDemoN/Tamaking.sid almost every sound (except e.g. kick) sounds like non-SID

http://www.c64.org/HVSC/MUSICIANS/R/Randall/Assatas_Song.sid one of the best snares, plain snare mixed with clap - fantastic!

http://www.c64.org/HVSC/MUSICIANS/G/Gangstar/Tiefklang.sid one of the best singlespeed claps (set flag to 8580)

http://www.c64.org/HVSC/MUSICIANS/B/Behdad_Arman/Electric_Jesus.. probably the best trance lead made with SID

http://www.c64.org/HVSC/MUSICIANS/C/CreaMD/Eastern_Kung-Fu_Expe.. one of the best kicks made with SID i've ever heard

http://www.c64.org/HVSC/MUSICIANS/N/No-XS/Textuality_and_more.s.. great imitation of house pianos in the beginning

more tunes soon, i still haven't proceeded to Ed :P

Fanta's bass-sound in Natural Wonders sweeps the floor with every bass sound I had ever heard. Amazing...
