I want to learn to play the classical guitar but don’t know where to start!?
Are there any experienced classical guitar players out there? What’s an easy first song to learn? I have almost no experience with the guitar. Thanks a lot!
You have to learn the notes on the fretboard
You have to learn how to read music
You have to learn good right hand technique.
I’d highly recommend "Solo Guitar Playing Volume 1" by Frederick Noad.
Start with smoke on the water- Deep Purple

Self-teaching classical guitar is a lot more difficult than, say, learning steel string acoustic guitar by yourself. Your best bet is to get lessons from someone who is familiar with classical guitar.
I trust you’re aware that classical guitars are use almost exclusively for playing classical music. If that’s not where your interests lie you might want to consider some other kind of guitar. Good luck.
