What's the easiest musical instrument to learn and play competently?

Question:There is no such thing as an easy instument to learn. They all require a great deal of hard work to play competently.

If you think the recorder is easy then try playing Bach on it !

Some instruments are easier for beginners (piano and guitar) but it soon becomes hard at the intermediate and advanced level.

Some instruments are difficult right from day one : violin, viola french horn.

Give up the search for an easy instrument...there isn't one.
