I found guitar really hard to wrap my brain (and fingers) around every time I tried to learn it. Then I discovered that I could play stuff on the ukulele like you can with a classical guitar, and I thought I'd give that a try. So I'm playing ukulele now. I didn't learn the ukulele because it's a crappy instrument that's like a guitar, I decided to try to learn to play ukulele because I discovered that it's not dissimilar to playing guitar, I can play classical music on it, and the ukulele seems a little easier than a guitar to get started on (IMO). Plus it's a comfortable size, and sounds beautiful. The guitar sounds beautiful too, and it might be nice to learn how to play that, too, one day. Heck, I'd love to learn to play banjo too, but I'll stick with dedicating my focus on one instrument for now, lol.
