Or learn to play a bunch! They're fun. I'm learning the banjo recently, it's awesome. Such an easy instrument to just pick up and play, it's already tuned for a G major chord right out of the box, that's the default tuning. Unlike a Ukelele which has a C6 chord tuning, and a guitar which is tuned to something that isn't even a chord!

Yeah, I've learned classical guitar somewhat. I can play various songs but piano is my go too. Guitar is a lot harder than piano and I just like how much more notes you can play on the pianio.

You can tune a guitar in G major 7 or what not though. Lots of blues songs are in those keys.

True you can re-tune a guitar, but it's annoying and you have to re-learn every single fingering. What I really like about guitar is that it's talked about in the language of chords, rather than in the language of a bar-and-staff with individual notes like on a piano. I find the more abstract chord notation with guitars to be much easier to work with
