How to Tell if You'd Be Better at Playing the Drums or the Guitar
Is playing a musical instrument a dream for you? There is a
saying that the distance between you and your dreams is called "action".
The problem is which instrument to choose? How do you know if you'd be better
at playing the drums or the guitar?
The two instruments do not look alike and do not sound
alike, but playing any musical instrument implies certain personal qualities
and skills. So, whether you choose drums or guitars, you have to feel the music
and the rhythm, otherwise you will not be able to progress, even if you take
dozens of lessons. You also need patience and a lot of determination and
perseverance. A musical instrument needs to be exercised often, otherwise you
will not become familiar enough with it to master it.
If you have all these qualities, you can surely become good
enough to play any of these two instruments. It will be a bit harder to learn
classic guitar, where you also need to learn some notions of musical theory,
without which you will not be able to decipher the scores. But in the end, the
potential of becoming very good in playing drums or the guitar also depends on
which instrument you grow to love more.
