$("#myForm :input:not(:hidden):not(:submit)").val('');

Note that :hidden also selects hidden elements - if you want only type="hidden" form elements but not e.g. a hidden type="text" element, use [type="hidden"] instead.

Or maybe you simply want to do $('#myForm')[0].reset();

Easiest way is to select all input fields and then filter out what you don't want and reset the ones you are left with.

$("#myForm :input").filter(function() { 
    return !($(this).is(':submit') || $(this).attr('type') == 'hidden');
}).val('');

Alternative without using filter:

$("#myForm :input").not(':submit').not('[type="hidden"]').val('');
