hi well i have alot of friends who play both instruments and they all say there both easy to learn,but seeing as i have only been playing guitar for 2 weeks now and i have learnt the basic chords and i think in couple of more weeks i should be able to move on to songs so its is easy but it depends on the way your going to get taught and if i were you i would get a teacher or a chord book with a cd,but i have also attemptd to play bass and the easy thing with bass is its only 4 strings and my friend has only been playing bass for 7 months and can now play songs on it,so thats all hope that helps and good luck with whichever one you play
