Which Instrument to learn as a hobby

I'm inbetween the guitar or the drums. On one hand, I think the drums would be easier and I'd be able to vent through them for those darker days.....anywho, they're more expensive and I still can't find space for a kit. On the other hand, the guitar would be harder, less expensive, and easier to store.

I say as a hobby because I have no intention of joining/starting a band.

There's more to bass than just playing chords.

True, but the pieces were too slow and I just didn't feel like continuing

Maybe you're just not funky enough...

The banjo. The guitar is too common and drums are annoying. ;)Sharvie

I play drums and bass...I'd go for drums...to those of you saying they're boring alone...you're just not creative enough.

I tried guitar for a while...gave that up to play bass...thought it was a lot more fun that guitar...mainly cause its fun to slap...

Guitar sounds better on its own imo.

My little brother plays both the drums and guitar. I asked his opinion for you and he said the drums are a lot cooler and rewarding when you pull off your first drum solo. He is 12 years old by the way.TehEnergy

I too play both here is my input:
Guitar is most certainly cheaper I dunno what the guy was talking about in the earlier post. A good drumset does not cost $500 it costs more like a $1000 because most sets do not inculde cymbols and good cymbols are going to run you $500 (I said good not learner).
Put this way: If you buy a new yamaha stage custom (just an example) new it does not come with any cymbols. Average cost of a premium crash cymbol like a k custom or A custom is around $120. Ride cymbol is around $200 and high hats around $250-300. Now if you go with budget cymbols your still looking at $300 for the cymbol pack giving you a price at a min of $800 unless you go used.
where as a good electric/ intermediate (and the kit above was intermediate) runs around $500 a good tube amp can be had for around $500. If your strepped for cash mexican fenders are good and can be had used for $200-300 on ebay, plus a solid state combo amp can be had for around $200 as well.

Having learned both I think they are both challenging in there own, but it is easier to sound like you know what your doing on a guitar where as a drumset if your off time every one knows. Also one can be learned silently so if thats a factor then I say guitar.Guitargodgt
