    So I bought a new guitar yesterday...

    a Classical to be exact.


    It's a Yamaha CG151S, cost about 250 with tax n all that good stuff. It's awesome, solid spruce top, good start off guitar for me. Yeah, i'm starting to learn how to play. I've been playing around with other players' guitars in the past, and i've been playing the violin for 7 years, so it's not like i'm new to the guitar or any of the string family instruments. I just gotta learn the chords and different styles of playing with a classical, as well as any guitar.

    I love it to death and i can't stop playing it. As of now, i'm starting to read tabs a little better, but I want to progress into reading guitar music.

    It's kinda hard playing classical, with a wider fingerboard and all, but i'll get used to it i'm sure.

    Just wanted to share Q/C/C welcome.

    I have an acoustic, a bass and an electric, but I still want a classical because they sound the best when you fingerpick. right now, i've been playing classical gas and tears in heaven and stuff like that on my acoustic, but it sounds nowhere near as good as it would on a classical

            If you want to learn classical, I really suggest you go and learn it the old-fashioned way.

              I'm taking a class through my high school this year, and it's my senior year so i decided why not. I'm already learning snippets of famous songs and such, you know, ones that people are always like "ooo can you play this song on ur gee-tar??"...something like stairway to heaven. I love fingerpicking rather than using an actual pick because i'm more accurate when i actually feel the strings.
