Bass is probably the easiest to play. Unfortunately, it's one of the few instruments that's no fun to play standalone. I learned to play bass before playing guitar. You can always tell a guitar player moving to bass because they try to just mimic the guitarist's notes instead of playing along with the drums or going off a beaten path.
All of this.
If you know anything about music, I could teach you to be functional on the bass in an afternoon.
It's probably one of the lowest bars to entry of any musical instrument however like the others have said here, to actually be good at it requires a lot of work.
My advice is that less is usually more when it comes to playing the bass.

I love when non musicians comment ignorance on something musically related. The most common ignorant thought is that anybody can just pick up the bass and/or drums. bullshite. Yeah, if you want to sound like a bubblegum high school garage band that might be true.
But you can tell right away when a band is really good because of a solid (and good) rhythm section where the drums and bass both know what the frick they’re doing rather than being shown a few things in an afternoon.
