I don't sing or play in a group so keys are sort of a moot point. I do 
play whistle and Irish flute so a lot of what I know is in D or G, or 
mixolydian and ionian, I guess. I've got a couple of whistles in other 
keys and a cheap Boehm flute if I want to get adventuresome.

For guitar I favor A, C, E, and G and the related minors. For banjo I 
usually stick with the standard open G or sometimes G modal. I use A and E 
mostly for blues stuff with a pentatonic scale.

I've got a capo around someplace but if you're not working with a singer 
it isn't too useful.
