I chose guitar, because of rock and roll music, and the portability of a guitar. However, I don't actually own a guitar, but I did inherit my grandparents old piano.
Guitar is my instrument RoseIsabella. What I am going to do is learn theory on the piano and then go back to my guitar. I think that will be more effective.
I play a little guitar. I was learning classical guitar but stopped because I had to travel for six months and never took lessons again. I should have continued.
You don't really need to play a specific instrument to learn music theory. Once you understand basic theory you can apply it to whichever instrument you prefer. I'd choose piano though.
