Acoustic or Bass Guitar?

cc5050 · 05-12-2016, 09:29 AM

Hi, I'm 15, and I'm not sure if I want to learn the Bass guitar or just an acoustic guitar.
I already own a guitar, since my Dad gave me his old one recently, and my mum is willing to give me about £200 (~$290) to buy a bass guitar and equipment if I use it.

A few people told me I should try and learn guitar before getting a bass (which I will probably end up doing), but it feels like a lot of effort for getting another instrument.
I also have a few good friends learning instruments, a drummer and two guitarists, so owning a bass guitar might be more useful if we want to play together.

ALSO: What brand? I play left handed, so some people told me to get Ibanez but they seem a little pricey
