Girls who can't play an instrument play ukelele and get away with calling themselves musicians because they're "cute", "quirky", and have "soft spoken vocals"

A ukulele is still an instrument regardless of how much of a pleb meme it is.
>>
French horn
>>
keyboard
>>
Vocals, if you have a naturally good sounding voice
>>
Noise Machine

If you think guitar is hard you are not going to have much luck with other instruments because a mentally handicapped chimpanzee could learn to play the guitar.

Trombone. Most of the parts are easy to play if you wanna play in a community group, and it's obnoxiously loud.
>>
>>65938791
Bass has only 4 strings instead of 6.

In a lot of pop tunes, you need to know only 3 notes.
>>
>>65940887
>Obnoxiously loud
>Implying a certain volume level is inherent to a given instrument
Only if you play like a fucking high school freshman.

There are definitely Wagner excerpts that get to that level.
>>
Harmonica, even when you're good it's still bad
>>
>>65938963
i mean, it technically is an instrument, but it's only acceptable if it's ONE OF the instruments you play, if it's literally the only one you play, then it's cute and funny
>>
>>65938791
stick to it, it seems impossible at first, but you'll get there. It's worth it m8

If you have to change, then piano I guess, not many instruments are easy to learn (you'll have just as much trouble with the piano btw)
>>
>>65938791
Drums.

lmao

Dylan makes it sound great though
>>
>>65941540
Never see Bob Dylan live! Biggest waste of money, you can't make out a word he says, he doesn't even play an instrument at any time, and hid band only plays shitting electric renditions of his songs

yeah that's what i've heard, my dad and brother saw him and said it was shit

It's incredibly easy to be a competent saxophone player.

>>65941679
If you're okay with shoving a piece of wood that soaks in your spit more every time you play
>>
>>65941719
They come in boxes, thank you.

Fucking faggot.

Just play piano/keyboard. Not necessairily easier but the keys are layed out in a much more logical way and it is the most versatile instrument desu senpai
>>
>>65940671
>College-Educated Musician
>not music major/minor
So someone who took two music classes in college without any intention of majoring in it. I'm in the same boat, but I don't brag to people about being a photography expert for taking one semester of film photography (don't do it).

>>65941741
LOL, you are aware that you use 2 or 3 reeds interchangeably until one breaks right? The more you use a reed the better it sounds
>>
>>65941517
Best advice in the thread.
I suck at guitar, but I can struggle through a couple of songs. Instruments are unlike everything else in that there's no eureka moment where you realize you can do it. If you practice even a tiny bit every couple days you will never feel like you're making progress until you notice you just got through an entire song for the first time.
Only way to learn an instrument is to keep sucking until you suck less.

>>65941797
Has nothing to do with having a problem with
>shoving a piece of wood that soaks in your spit more every time you play
>>
get a cheap keyboard. picking up the basic chords and melody playing is even easier than guitar. piano gets a rep for being hard the because classical pieces everyone wants to play are fucking hard. the basic stuff you hear in rock and pop isn't that bad. its literally pressing buttons
>>
>>65941833
Are you really that retarded?
A reed soaks in spit every time it is played, whether it is technically wood is redundant
>>
>>65941888
>ESL reading comprehension
You were responding with reasoning against picking up sax. I've been playing for eight years, you don't need to educated me, you fucking mong.
>>
>>65941968
Ohhh, sorry I didn't know you are ESL. You should lead with that
