Guitar harder than uke? Well, I guess it has 2 more strings
Guitar harder than uke? Well, I guess it has 2 more strings
. And remember a uke player has to do with just four strings what a guitar plays gets six strings to do. .
I played guitar for almost 50 years before I took up the ukulele 5 years ago. In the mid-60s with the British music group invasion, many of my friends started playing, as did I. I took a few lessons, which got me started and I did pretty well for all the years. As with any instrument, it takes lots of practice to get good, and that knowledge and experience served me very well when I started playing uke, took to it very readily. As much as I liked playing guitar, since playing ukulele, I actually haven't touched my guitars since.
8 tenor cutaway ukes, 3 acoustic bass ukes, 8 solid body bass ukes, 7 mini electric bass guitars

I am surprised they left out spoon and the Jews Harp.
For me, ukulele is easier to play than guitar, or at least more comfortable and more relaxed. I suppose a guitar is more complex, but that doesn't necessarily mean the music usually played on it is more complex also. Looking at the stuff Corey, Daniel Ho or George Elmes play, to name just a few, and what John King played, there's very little chance most of us will ever run out of challenges with the ukulele, or ever "master" the instrument. In some ways, as mentioned above, the guitar is easier because there's a larger range of notes in the same space.
