Jam with as in playing with somebody playing an instrument or jam on that instrument yourself?
I like to jam on the drums most

I like to jam with bass guitar, its easy to get some really good, deep grooves going with a bassist. There is no need for complicated rhythms when you have something solid so it just plays itself and its a great feeling, it sounds great, too, with that amazing groove. I'm sure most of us here have experienced this, so I won't explain anymore, but I think the experience is easier to come by when jamming with a bassist.
Other drummers are cool, too. Adding onto another guy's beats is really fun, you just build off each others' playing, ya know!

I mostly like to jam on my drums, of course. Then bass is pretty fun. I know a decent amount on guitar so I play that alot.

I like jamming with guitarists because they love to show off so much. That usually means they'll rip through tons of tunes with tons of different beats to practice and eventually double time stuff. When it's just drums and guitar you have to try and fill in the bass parts with your feet. I like that challenge.

Well, as far as playing goes, I would have to say I like jamming on drums the most...
Make that any part of the percussion section, not just drums, because xylophone and marimba are fun to jam on as well.

Second, make it bass guitar, because it's just as fun to play as a normal guitar. Plus, how can you NOT love playing rhythms from Rush on bass? I mean, come on now.

Third, I would put guitar and saxophone as a tie. That is that.

Fourth, harmonica baby! Oh yeah. I said harmonica. Take it. Take it.

And as far as jamming with other people, I like jamming with a bassist AND a guitarist if I am on drums.
