Not a huge fan of the sax and while drums are the backbone of a lot of songs, they're not great on their own.

Piano is the greatest instrument change my mind

in terms of how important they are in, say, an average rock band, it's:
1. Bass
2. Drums
3. Voice
4. Piano/Guitar (if there's a piano, the guitar becomes much less important)
5. Horn section

idk about "top 5" with no other context though

I dont know about that man. Even if you can hear the high frequency of the bass, doesnt mean you wont hear the lows. The bass has the root notes. Im sure people would notice the bass being gone even though they dont realize its there.
