Here we go. The search bar needed to be toggled through a button click.

... # Driver initialization, navigating to the page etc.

# The first nested frame
frame_1 = driver.find_element_by_id("widget-container")
driver.switch_to.frame(frame_1)

# The second nested frame
frame_2 = driver.find_element_by_tag_name("iframe")
driver.switch_to.frame(frame_2)

# Toggling the search bar
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[contains(text(), 'Instrument')]").click()

# Actually sending in the query
search = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@placeholder='Instrument']")
search.send_keys("Hey there!")
