This is the most accurate translation, in my view. Surprised GG5 doesn't have it.

I think that sense 3 is over-interpreting it. It's covered by the other senses. Comment anyone else?

1) 単音楽器(主として同時にひとつの音だけを演奏する楽器)

2) 単音 = モノフォニック(MONOPHONIC)
   重音 = ポリフォニック(POLYPHONIC)

beware, i didn't find proper information on how to distinguish from 2nd entry. but 複音/重音 do imply there is a difference..
