hmmm,,, never exactly tried classical guitaring ever in my life. My roommate plays it fr almost 10 years nw, he's quite good, i'm quite mesmerized by the way he plays it. Looks hard tho, i shall stick with my bass, hehe. The tough part about classical guitaring fr me is the fact that u need to pluck with all three fingers on individual strings and u need to bass on the exact intervals. Plus, even though some of the scores are easy to understand, but playing them out needs lotsa practice, unlike rhythm guitars where jz chords alone can let u play the whole song without fail.

Wat guitars do ya'll normally look for?
As in wood on the fretboard, body, etc?

I personally like Gibson's guitar... for the looks  biggrin.gif

Played my frens Taylor...very good...compared to mine  tongue.gif

TAYLOR!!!!!!!! bmmasdasjdanaojwijo! drool.gif WOw, nice guitars they make man, but look at the price. And yeah, they do produce lotsa classical guitars, heck, even some of the steel acoustics can be modified to a classical jz by changing the strings to nylon. There's one store in Starhill BB KL selling lotsa nice taylors. Oh yea, there's oso one in Times Square dat sells like only 6 Taylors and a couple of Timothys. tongue.gif 1 Taylor, i touched 1 bfore dat costs like rm10k plus, haha. Oh yea, i like their natural finish too, oh darn, damn cool. The sound? no need to say much hehe. wub.gif

P.S. anyone of u heard of Carl Clark guitars or smth liddat?

haha, arlo brothers, focus focus on the force of the acoustic/classical kapoks, not hillary duffs or linday lohans (haha, no offence! tongue.gif). imho after reading so much bout blacktrix, it's a wonder dat he is a hillary duff fan, dun u think so? hehe. yupz, my church uses a takamine, and even tho it's so old, some of the strings rusted, the fretboard a bit cracked, and the body paint faded, it's still so warm and ah, i dunno hw to describe acoustic sound, all u hav ta knw is, it's nice! especially when playing lounge style strings or jazz tunes. (considering the strings are pretty much almost dead or dead already). i dunno, u jz hav ta try it la. hehe.
