I’m not very musical, but I am super envious of people that can just pick up an instrument and strum or pick out some easy music.

I’d like to move from easy to tavern music because I watched a video of someone playing fantasy music on a mandolin which was beautiful.

What can I start with to just play with? I don’t know if a stringed instrument is best, because when I have tried guitar it sort of sounds flat, like the guitar is stuffed with socks. Maybe it was a garbage guitar.

Maybe something with keys, or even blow, like a flute?

I tried trumpet but I couldn’t get used to the blowing raspberries through the mouth piece…

Advice please!
