It's not the easiest to pick up, but it's not tremendously difficult to get started on, either. The hardest part is embouchure, that is getting your mouth in the correct shape to get the best sound out of the reed. After that, it's no more challenging than any other wind instrument. Bassoon also doesn't transpose, although you may find yourself learning two different clefs.
