Ringo attempted to learn guitar while with The Beatles but soon gave up and stuck to the piano for writing songs.

Ringo Starr did not play bass guitar. Stuart Sutcliffe did not play drums. Sutcliffe was long gone (and had died) before Starr ever joined the Beatles.
No Ringo only ever played the drums. you may have become confused with Paul McCartney started to learn to play trumpet when he was 14 but gave it up to play the Guitar.

I don't know a Ringo Sterr, but I do know a Ringo Starr, a Ringo Stirr, a Ringo Storr, a Ringo Sturr, and sometimes a Ringo Styrr. Ringo Starr mainly played the drums. The others just sing back up.

Paul McCartney played the bass, John Lennon played rhythm guitar, George Harrison played lead guitar and Ringo Starr played drums. However, when recording in the studio it varied by a lot. Paul played guitar for some songs, John may have picked up the bass, etc.
