I wasn't much of a fan of that wedding song, but I really love his performance on it.

I think it's more about the time you use, do you play 1 hour a day or 10 hours a day.
Ofcourse I'm going piano-off-topic again, but this one shows that we can be able to be good even if we start "old".
Wylde started playing the guitar at the age of 15 and worked at Silverton Music in Silverton, New Jersey.
He grew up in Jackson, New Jersey, and went to Jackson Memorial High School there, where he graduated in 1985.
Wylde has stated that he would practice playing the guitar as much as 12 hours per day and often would play the
guitar almost non-stop between coming home from school and leaving for school the next morning, then sleeping through the school day.
Now he plays for Ozzy Osbourne:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1iJ7pVFIE_c
If you play 1 hour a day, you play 365 hours a year, if you play 10 hours a day, you play 3650 hours a year. As our human brain have such ability to learn, there is no reason to waste it.

Tbh, I don't think starting anything at your teens is "old". Except maybe for modeling
