I really wish I had of gotten into music when I was younger. It is really frustrating trying to learn when you are older (for me anyway). This is compounded by the fact that I want to learn a few instruments:(.

alot, the whole thing is costly

the harp is expensive

the lessons are expensive

they should call it 'expens-arp' instead of harp.....or something

Yeah, especially if you want to learn that huge concert pedal harp. Fortunately, I only want to learn a 36-44 string lever harp. That ends up being around $5000+

I've been playing guitar for over a year now and I'm really crap still (school been getting in the way)

But I've been considering buying a keyboard and playing that as well, now that school is over.
But I'm 17 already. Just out of curiosity is it too late to become a good keyboard player?

depends what you want to get out of it. I mean if you have aspirations of becoming a world famous concert pianist then i doubt its possible. If your dreams are more realistic then theres no reason why you cant be good, all it takes is practice
