I like spring clamps for light duty, C-clamps for really holding pieces.. pipe clamps don't get used much, but are for long gaps....

Quick Grip clamps and spring clamps and pony pipe clamps ( Mostly for cabinet face frames)

All of the above.
It really helps if you build a boat before building a teardrop because spring and C-clamps can be crossed off the list. I only have about 6 pipe clamps, so I guess that's the next clamp section that needs to multiply in my shop.
The best bit of advise I can give about clamps and I don't see it discussed here much, is not to over clamp a joint and starve it of glue.
