I always considered the piano the ideal instrument for composers/songwriters. I asked AI that very question, and this is what she had to say:

For composers, the piano/keyboard is often considered the best instrument to learn. It provides a broad range of notes and chords, making it ideal for exploring melodies, harmonies, and rhythms. It also serves as a great tool for understanding music theory, ear training, and developing musical ideas. While other instruments like guitar can be beneficial, the piano's ability to play multiple notes simultaneously and its direct connection to music theory make it a strong choice.

I agree I think the word composer, really refers to somebody sitting at a piano. A songwriter, that's a guy on guitar.

Piano gives you bass, treble and can be a percussive instrument to. Guitar I guess you can hit the back of it.

I wish I played piano well.
