With a choice, I'd choose drummer over a guitarist though. |

It just seems like it is easier to communicate grooves with a drummer.
But hey, I'm a music whore, I'll jam with anybody. Well, at least once anyway.

My main gig is a jazz trio featuring neither one, and I really enjoy that. |

| | | | It's a lot easier to jam with a drummer, and in many ways more fun, you don't need to worry about harmony and melody and you can just rock out however you feel.
In that regard I think it's a lot more braindead and immediately satisfying. But, there is something to be said about sitting down with a good guitarist and burning through standards or just playing around with chord progressions and hearing. It takes a lot more skill I think, to jam with a guitarist and keep it interesting.
