There’s a lot of lists floating around about easy instruments to learn–well, this one is going to be all about instruments that are not only easy, but inexpensive. After all, even if piano is considered easy to learn by some–that’s not very inexpensive! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the year of 2020, I set a goal to learn a different instrument every month, practicing an hour each day. I started in 2019, so by the end of the year I will have studied 14 instruments in 14 months! I now have a bit of perspective on what instruments are easy to learn and which ones are not. You can check out my journey, here on YouTube<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most of these instruments are less than $50, but I will consider an instrument to be inexpensive as less than $100.<\/strong> I’ll let you know what the price range is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
