A classical guitar is an acoustic guitar with nylon strings and typically has a smaller body and slightly wider neck than a steel string acoustic guitar. It’s suitable for playing classical music as well as other forms of folk music. Amidst learning other styles, when I was in college I concentrated on classical guitar at James Madison University.

Lessons in Classical Guitar include:

-Learn guitar with a method that strives to achieve excellent tone, efficient and relaxed movement, and a high-degree of musicianship

-Excellent prep for students who wish to enter college programs in guitar performance
