I think it depends on exactly how well you want to eventually be able to play the instrument. If you're just looking to sit down for a half hour and learn how to make some noise I'd choose the guitar. Because of TABS that you can find all over the internet, a complete novice could sound something like Pete Townsend of The Who or be playing AC/DC tunes in no time. But of course unless you sat down and put in serious practice time you'd never really understand the instrument or how music theory works. On the other hand if you wanted to become a virtuoso I'd choose the harmonica. How many people can actually play the harmonica....well? Anyone can huff and puff and blow out some noise, especially on a harmonica that's built in a particular--everything just sounds like a big chord. But if you picked up a chromatic harmonica (a la Stevie Wonder) and practiced until you could make seriously good music, you could carve out a unique identity for yourself. Besides, how many guitar virtuosos are out there (dead and alive)? But the only harmonica virtuoso I can think of is Stevie Wonder.

So in short..wanna be a easy-learn novice? Choose guitar and learn a bunch of TABS. Wanna alter music history with your awesomeness which came from years of practice? Pick up a chromatic harmonica. I'm a keyboarder/organist with a graduate degree in music who's trying to learn electric guitar by the way.

I've been working with the course for about a week now, and it's incredible. Just the practice aids and the different scales and memory techniques in Book 9 are worth the price of the course, alone! There are two things that make this course stand out. First, all the video and audio files are embedded in the lesson. I have yet to find another piano course that makes it this easy. It's so nice not to have three files going at the same time! The second thing is that you actually get to play in each lesson! And the songs are not "Mary had a Little Lamb" types! From the Beatles to Bethoven, it's all there. I have several piano courses that I have ordered over the internet. This is the one I use because it makes learning fun! I'm amazed! Once you get the rhythms down, you really can sound like a pro! Great fun! Thanks for making this available at such a reasonable price. Anyone who doesn't grab this up is going to go the long way home! Joy! Now ANYONE Can Learn Piano or Keyboard?

harp is very limited unless you get into chormatic, with guitar there are no limits as to how far you can go.
