Is classical guitar good to learn?

I was wondering if classical guitar is good to learn and if it was not a waste of time to find a teacher to learn classical What are the benefits of classical guitar. Is there another style worth learning. Classical guitar has some nice pieaces, but what are its benefits?

Well, technically, a classical guitar is actually a type of acoustic guitar, and any kind of music can be played on it–though I don’t think a hard-driving rock song meant for a loudly amplified electric guitar would sound quite right. Classical guitars usually have nylon strings and a slightly wider neck than other acousic guitars. The wider neck makes it easier for more intricate finger positions, especially if you were playing classical or advanced solo pieces. Likewise you could play classical music on another type of acoustic guitar–or even electric guitars (though of course the effect would be changed due to the tone of the instrument).

Now what would be the benefit of taking guitar lessons and starting with classical or traditional pieces?
For one thing, you actually learn to read sheet music. Not everything is available in tabs, and tabs don’t indicate the how long a note or chord is to be played. If you were trying to actually play something you had never heard before, it might be a lot of guesswork involved concerning the correct rhythm. Standard notation also gives other helpful information on how the music is to be played.

In addition to solo pieces, you can also use your classical guitar to accompany singing or other instrumentalists using basic chords.

    WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS!?!?!
    Are you a blockhead?

    the benefits are that you will be entering a new realm of music. the names Fernando Sor and Francisco Tarrega would mean something to you.

    another benefit is that your skills will improve. Classical guitar requires a lot more technicality than something like the Rolling stones or Coldplay
