Common instruments in jazz that I know include the saxophone, trumpet, trombone, piano, double bass, drums, and guitar.

What other instruments do you know?

With all these instruments, you just need human participations because these are the common instruments for jazz. Woodwinds is also included too.

Yes woodwind instruments are also used as well, thank you for adding that. I particularly know of the hand pipe.

Those are definitely the core instruments in jazz! Some others you might come across include:
Clarinet – Especially in early jazz like Dixieland or New Orleans jazz.
Flute – Sometimes used for its lighter, airy sound.
Vibraphone – A unique percussion instrument with a cool, shimmering tone.
Harmonica – Though less common, it’s used in some jazz styles, especially blues-jazz fusion.
Cello – Occasionally used in modern jazz, adding a deep, rich resonance.
Jazz is all about creativity, so you’ll find artists experimenting with all kinds of instruments in different setups!

We are learning every day and as you learn from me, so do I learn from you too. Hand pipe is an important tool too.

Harmonicas are used? Maybe I will pay more attention so as to listen to it, I never could have guessed.

JThe instruments used are flute, saxophone, guitar, trumpet, piano and many others. The most important about these instruments is to have a good skilled player and that can use them very well.
