Drums and percussion.

Neil Peart - Rush, one of the best.
Dave Lombardo - ex Slayer, tremendous.
Tommy Lee - Motley Crue.
Joey Jordison and the other guys from Slipknot are awesome too. 

Too many more to mention.

Coming from a drummer, I'd have to say drums, Derek Roddy, Buddy Rich, Paul Mazurkiewicz and John Longstreth are some of my favorite. But guitar is a damn close second. I'm a huge Steve Vai fan.

OK - This is going to sound crazy, but my favorite is the pipe organ.
I play piano and organ and love both actually.

www.pipedreams.org is a really awesome website if you're into organ music.

Since I am a percussionist my first love and respect goes to percussionists and drummers the players that come sprining to mind first are....

Artis The Spoonman - Spoons, Bones, Ladles
Rónán Ó Snodaigh - Bodhran/Percussion for Kíla
Gino Lupari - Bodhran/Percussion for Four Men and A Dog
Future Man (RoyEl Wooten) - Drums/Percussion for Bela Fleck & The Flacktones
Tim Alexander - Drums/Percussion for Primus, Laundry, Pucifer, Attention Deficit, Et Al.
Mike Dillon - Percussionist for Col. Claypools Flying Frog Brigade

But I halso have a not so secret affection for amazing Bass Players, My all time favorites are:

Les Claypool - Soloist and Primus, Sausage, Oysterhead, Col. Claypools Flying Frog Brigade, C2B3, Electric Apricot, Et. Al.

Victor Wooten - Soloist and Bela Fleck and the Flecktones

Edgar Myer - virtuoso double bassist.
