Does anyone have any suggestions for "quickly" cropping this photo out of the background? I have had people suggest using a differnt background for better contrast, however I tried this and the result is a nasty reflection on everything silver (i.e. silver keys look green or blue).

That happens because you place the instrument against the background. To avoid the background spill onto the instrument, you have to put some distance between subject and background. If you aren't equipped to do that, get out your pen tool and a heaping helping of patience.
