Can you play an instrument? Have you taught yourself?

I want to learn how to play the bass guitar but only have an accoustic guitar at home. Does it make sense to learn how to play that first?

You can learn slap/pop techniques on a guitar that translates over but it's more getting used to the thicker strings that'll be the part that's new.

@Ryannnnnn Oh and yeah to answer the question I play acoustic and i'm self taught since I was 15-16. If you want inspiration for acoustic check out Tommy Emannuel and Antoine Dufour.
