Classic Guitars
Classic guitars traditionally use nylon or
“gut” strings to create a softer, mellower
tone than steel strings. The necks are
wider for easier fingering, and the strings
‘are easier to note because they are not
‘Qs hard on your fingers as high tension
steel strings. (Always remember, never
put steel strings on a classic guitar since
the instrument is braced for the lighter
Pressute of nylon strings.)
