What are you asking, if learning piano is hard?
No, it's not hard at all.

more keys than a guitar

But they're discreet.
A guitar has subjective places on the fret.
No absolute
>Press here for this sound

Including black keys, 12 of the keys are basic ones you can easily learn (C C# D D# E F F# G G# A A# B). The rest of the keys are the same notes in higher or lower pitches

Practice practice practice practice. Learn to play in a specific key. Everything gets easier after that. I don't think I can stress it enough, but getting good at the piano is just practice, even it wears you out.

No excuses, give it a try and if you don't like it move on. It really is simple if you just keep at it though, practice really does make perfect

No senpai, guitar is also quantized into dodecatonality by frets - albeit presence of 6 differently-pitched strings allows playing one sound via a number of different tabs.

Piano is an expensive business fren. First off, buy yourself a cheap keyboard. It's suboptimal, but it's enough to build up some basic finger dexterity. I would also recommend getting a teacher, it can't be that expensive while it'll provide you with important advice and guidance that cannot be bestowed via a Laotian dagguerotype board.

Learning to play piano is not all that difficult and finding resources to learn piano is pretty abundant. But yes find a teacher and some music you wan to learn, and learn your scales and chord (which aren't hard at all). It will take you a few months but you will get the hang of it.

Pick an easy song.

Start learning.

depends how good you wanna be, op. If you wanna hammer out a few tunes for fun then won't take you more than a few months to learn most of the basics.... if, on the other hand you wanna do it properly, break it down and work on the boring exercises and scales for 10 hours a day. Answer what type of pianist you wanna be first then you can plan the best route forward. best of luck

Just buy an old piano for a few hundred, have it tuned, get a retarded book about how to play, work through the book. Also ask someone who knows how to play to give you some easy sheet music. My mom gave me Christmas songs. It's not an overnight thing, but you'll be surprised how fast it comes.

I know plenty of 8yo that play piano...

ive played piano for 8 years
its an incredibly easy instrument to learn
and its incredibly difficult to master( i havent even come close)

Here you go OP. This is the standard I want you to beat in at least 7 years of hardcore practice.

It's easier for young humans to learn. If you don't pick up an instrument in childhood, forget it in most cases.

It depends on what you want to do with it.

Learn guitar

No, it's not too hard to learn. But like any instrument, an instructor will help.

Please don't spread false information.

Also, everyone keeps telling to learn your scales and chords but that's bad advice. Learn your intervals. Because scales and chords are just patterns of intervals.

>Intervals
This is the key. In my case, I don't want to read music or play with other people beyond my one or two music bros, so I have just learned hand shapes and chromatic intervals. Traditional music notation is fucked in my opinion, chromatic 12 is much simpler to process on the fly and think about mathematically as a field F13 when you add a rest as the null note. So I end up playing songs that flow onto other songs in a jumble of keys, which I don't think about in therms of letter note names, rather as intervals and hand shapes.

It would be easier if all keyboards were alternating white and black keys through out with a raised dot some something tactile for middle C, but this is an unbreakable convention

Take some commuinty college classes. The professors are usually very friendly to new comers. Learning piano is not hard, playing well and "speaking music" is; not that you would be really interested in that.

>guitar is also quantized into dodecatonality by frets - albeit presence of 6 differently-pitched strings

>quantized into dodecatonality

piano has all the sounds in order from left to right :)

guitar has all the sounds in order from left to right, too.

and also up and down on 6-8 strings

piano is objectively simpler and easier

t. can't play any instruments

Piano uses both hands and feet. The coordination required for playing with the left and right hands on piano is far beyond what is needed for guitar, requiring you to be able to use all 10 fingers. You also need good form into to reduce the physical burden of playing piano. Form with a guitar is worlds more lenient. Additionally, because the guitar has tons of repeated notes along the neck, you can physically simplify things that would be difficult to play on the piano. Furthermore, the multiple strings of a guitar are tuned to form a chord. You can literally play multiple chords and triads by just strumming different strings without pressing down on any frets. Because of how the notes are laid on a guitar, it makes it difficult to hit a bad note. As someone who plays both instruments and more, the piano is physically harder to play for a beginner than a guitar.

if you weren't a musician before 12 forget about it, your coordination was too poor.

Yeah after the age of 12 I haven't been able to learn any new skills. Might as well just get the rope.

pick easy songs you really like, use youtube videos and tutorials
if you end up making a lot of progress and getting the hang of it, consider taking lessons

Is 24 too late to start? I want to one day be able to play this, though i know it’d take years.
