OHH!! I think its classical guitar! Cuz I tried that day pressing on the steel stringed guitar and my finger hurts like maddd. ><

my finger is really short and I have a very small mini hand. :S I hope I can reach the notes. My hand is REALLY REALLY small. Do you know any website that can teach me the basics? >< or where did you learn it from by yourself?

i learn acoustic on www.justinguitar.com or youtube....and classic guitar is usually suitable for ladies blush.gif

because it is nylon string and easy to play compare to acoustic... smile.gif

ohh tongue.gif yeah I can barely press on the steel guitar string. The first time I pressed on it I was like "OH MY GOD. VIOLIN WAS SOFTER"

OKAY! I gonna get a classical guitar xD

The strings of a guitar won't matter after playing it for a few months. You'll get used to it.

It's more important to learn the guitar that you're most comfortable with, style-wise, learning-wise and maybe even prospect of joining a band or something.

Usually you won't see classical guitarists with bands.

Yeah true. >< Never seen any yet.
Ahh D: I'm left handed but that should be fine right? Because I play violin like how everyone playing too o_O

I'm right handed but I don't think it matters when playing guitar. Because both hands are very important while playing guitar, so both hands must be equally trained.

That's what I thought too but then one of my friend was like making a big deal out of it. xD
okay thanks for everything! notworthy.gif

I'll check out the justinguitar once I get my guitar <3
OHhh. D: I assume that classical and acoustic guitar are played the same way ><!

Oh.. can you play like. alot of songs now? Or there are still some parts that you can't really play yet? the only thing I'm scared of is that I can't reach notes or change chords fast enough. I tried that day and my friend was like "omg you're like friggin slow". anyway congrats on your first exam!! rclxm9.gif
