I used to play viola from 5th grade until 12th. Not gonna say I was first row material, but I wasn’t terrible either. Stopped a few years later because I lost the instrument in a move and didn’t get another because I had kinda lost interest after losing mine.
I also bought an acoustic guitar last spring but so far I haven’t gotten far with it. It’s definitely a lot harder than viola, IMO. And a lot more painful on my fret/string/whatever holding down hand.
