It depends on what aspect you're looking at: Initial Learning Curve: Drums are often easier to start with because you can play simple beats quickly, while guitar requires finger strength and coordination to form chords without buzzing sounds. Coordination & Timing: Drumming requires good limb independence, meaning both hands and feet work separately, which can be tricky. Guitar needs hand coordination but not as much full-body movement. Music Theory & Chords: Guitar involves learning chord progressions, scales, and music theory early on. Drums focus more on rhythm and timing. Noise & Space: Drums are loud and need space, while a guitar is more portable and can be played quietly. read less
