Banjo or Fiddle?

kerryhunter · 2016-11-18 19:27:23

I'd love to learn to play either the banjo or the fiddle but I'm not sure what would be easier for myself, any ideas? (Also left handed using my right would be out of the question due to terrible co-ordination)

Both are hard and equal in learning requirements. Its an arbitrary preference. If, however, you have experience with guitar/mandolin or any fingerboard & string picking instrument, then banjo would prob be better
