        Hi,
        I know it wont be fair for me to say which is easier to learn since I've never tried yangqing before, so cant make a comparison... I think both instruments should be easy enough. One of my student is even a five year old, so no worries, at least I can tell you guzheng is easy, even a five year old can understand this traditional instrument^^

        cheers 😄

                I am not sure whether the yangqin is a suitable instrument for kids to learn to play as a first musical instrument. There are lots of strings (144!) to maintain and unless you are very musically inclined and do not mind tuning the strings on a regular basis. You will need to tune the guzheng strings too but I guess 21 strings will be a lot less hassle!
