I would recommend violin as for it global value in an orchestras. To which ever literate country you go you can easily become a member of any orchestra or a band with your good musical skill. Only if you want to do something in music.

I would recommend guitar as better, only if you want to do a quick performance on stages. Other wise if you try to learn guitar professionally you can touch heights, but there are really tough competitors out there in world.

Violin can be played solo as well as with a group of 100 violinists in a group. It will help you earn in both the ways. It is always helpful

Where as guitar mostly plays solos or normally in a group with 4 guitarists. Or you have to create your own group other wise, if you don’t get a chance to play in any team.

There are maximum failures in guitars globally as compared to, in violins, if we look professionally. So it is up to you for what purpose you want to learn.

This is a very very short information from my side. I hope you get it.

Thankyou

Yes there are shortcuts to play guitar, but those shortcuts will short cut your interest in playing guitar.

If I put up your question in another way round it will sound like "What is the easiest way of adding, 17+52?"

And the options will be use calculator or use your brain. As you know, if you use calculator your brain will become dumb or remain dumb until and unless you try to make it think.

So you think if for yourself how you want to learn.

Thank you

It is 99% impossible to learn Guitar by yourself. If you are watching YouTube videos to learn then it is another mayter. Coz you will be learning from copying others, that doesn't mean that you are learning it by yourself. Copying others will later on demotivate you in the future.

If I portrait your question in another way round that is "Can I learn how to play trumpet or alpha horn by myself??"

It is again 99% impossible. 

1% is possible only if you are super gifted with knowledge and are doing research on how to play it.

Other wise it is better to look for a teacher who will guide you to his/her best knowledge.
