Am I too old to learn how to play acoustic guitar?

Question

I'm 14 going to be 15 in march, is that to old?

I've always wanted to learn to play.

I do have music backgroun if that helps. . .

I played the oboe for 4 years, and the piano for 2.

I had to quit both because of family problems.

Or I want to learn how to play the drums, but I think I would have more fun with the guitar.

Your never too old to play and instrument, if you wanna play, then play, just go to your local music store, and they will give you tips on what to do, what kind of guitar to get, what kind of music to play, and how to get you started.

Hope I could help! :)

no its not to old. Guitar is fun and it keeps u occupied when your bored. Drums well the drummer from Lamb of God (Heavy Metal band) started when he was 19 and now hes in one of the biggest heavy metal bands in the world .

Answer 8

Of course you're not too old! I'm 17 and will soon be learning to play the guitar as well, and if you have already had music experience that will work as a big advantage.   Go For It!

Answer 9

there's no age limit for music =)

Answer 10

Too old?

My oldest student is in his fifties!

There is no age limit in music.

Answer 11

No, you're still really young, lol. You can learn guitar at any age. If you want to do it, go for it!

Answer 12

Are you kidding?

You are very young and you should definitely start playing guitar if you are interested.

Get yourself a nice acoustic that is easy to play and also get some lessons, or at least a good beginner lesson book.  

It will be some work to pick up the technique, but the musical part shouldn't be as challenging because you have some background.
