My hand joints are getting better finally and I wanna learn an instrument. The thing is, I’m dumb and have struggled really badly with reading music in the past.

    Guitar and ukelele are relatively easy to learn and don’t require reading music. Ukelele would probably be a bit easier on your joints though.

      Absolutely. Guitar is quite a strain on many things in the hands, joints included. Piano is quite gentle on hands as well.

      All things considered, any instrument can give you more pain than necessary if you develop bad habits. So consider having a teacher lesson perhaps once a month.
