Electric guitar and classical guitar??
I’m choosing to take lessons between electrical guitar or classical guitar… Is the method of playing the electrical guitar similar to classical guitar OR classical guitar similar to electrical guitar?? Which class do you think I should take?
Take Classical – then when you have learnt all the chords, you can then paly electric yourself. They are quite different and it is easier to learn on classical
both it is like spoooo cheep

i think you should have bass lessons, tehre aren’t enoug hbass players in the world, and in bass if your good, the diference between you and someone average is huge, in guitar, if your good, your a little diferent someone average

You’ll learn different things. Learning classical guitar means you’ll concentrate on picking techniques and playing tunes from sheet music, while electric (rock) guitar focuses on chords and song accompaniment.

The techniques for playing electric and classical guitar (well)are quite different. You need to decide which style you want to play before you make your decision. Most guitar tutors these days are happy to teach either.

classic al guitar has its own charm but now all choose the e-guitar.

i prefer to learn on an acoustic guitar since it is lighter and more portable. You can pick it up easily and play for 20 mins to practice. an electric, you need to plug in the amp.
learning full chords on an acoustic can easily be translated into power chords once you understand the chord root.

Learn on the acoustic guitar, all else will be down hill from there.

the method of playing guitar is the same for electric and classical. Because electric guitar has amplifier sometimes you can just touch the strings to make sound otherwise the technique of playing classical guitar and technique of playing standard 6 string electric guitar are the same. For beginners however it is better to start on classical guitar especially with no previous experience playing guitar.

You are so lucky I happened upon your question. I’m a professional and teacher of all styles but my forte is classical.
Classical guitar is played fingerstyle and the music, if you’re serious about it, is difficult yet so rewarding, calming, satisfying and beautiful. One is actually playing the melody, accompanyment and bass at once. It’s very full and complete sounding.The neck of the guitar is wider and the strings are silk & still (3 bass) and nylon. They are much easier on your finger tips than steel. You have to ask yourself these questions. What kind of music do I want to play? Do I want to learn how to read music? ( music is a language and if you want to really understand it you should learn how to read and write it) Keep in mind that classical guitar music is not like classical orchestral music. It’s much more romantic and personal. You may want to buy a CD of Christopher Parkening, John Williams (the guitarist) or the late Andres Segovia. If you just want to learn how to strum chords and sing along then I suggest an accoustic folk to start. Post agin if you need further help.

As in classical do you mean acoustic? Classical is a whole different animal. There are fingering and picking techniques that require a lot of practice time.
If you want to learn in a hurry electric is the way I feel to go. If you want to take the time acoustic, I feel, gives you more of a sense of doing.

In both classes you’ll learn the same scales, the same basics, ect.
It just depends weather you would like to play electric or classical (I assume you mean accoustic), but if you can play electric, you can still play classical and vice versa.
I personally own 3 electrics and one accoustic, and the accoustic is the hardest to play due to the copper/ bronze instead of nickel.
The same bar chords, and basic chords, and power chords, and scales are still going to be used.
ALSO you don’t need to plug in an electric, it’s just louder when you do, and you can use cool effects.
ALSO, if you get an accoustic get an electric accoustic, i.e. an accoustic that you can plug in, but is still like a normal accoustic.

i’ve taken lessons in both. it really depends on what type of music you want to play. they’re very different styles, but learning one will help you learn the other. my personal experience was that taking classical lessons (after having played for about 7 years) really helped improve my technique.
but if you’re just trying to decide between acoustic and electric, i’d start with acoustic. i’ll play anything from punk to folk on guitar, and i’ve always been a firm believer that if you can play a song on an acoustic guitar, playing it on electric will be a lot easier than the other way around.

It really doesn’t matter. The only MAJOR difference is Barre chords. Its easier to learn and play them on an electric. If you want my personal preference…start with the electric. You can get a small pocket amp, plug in your headphones and practice anywhere without someone asking you to be quiet.

its alittle hard to say considering that both arts are extremely diferent from eachother. if you plan on being very patient to get very good results i suggest starting on classical then going to electric. many of the greatest guitarists ever started off in classical. yngwie malmsteen, kirk hammett, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Randy Rhoads. all those people started off on classical. the only problem is that it takes a long time to learn classical. it requires alot of practice and patience.
if you dont have that then start off on electric. you can still get to the same level. it jsut takes alittle more time and you dont have that basic ability that most classical players have. not to say that you cant acheive it lol.
i wish you luck on this. once you choose one, its very hard to go back. good luck

I would take Classical Lessons if you want to play hardcore leads and amazing arpeggios and scales and all that and Electric if you want to play soulfully and with feeling. Theres quite a big difference but you can apply classical to electric so theres alot of versatility of the guitar you can do some much more then the bass. but hey theres nothing wrong with bass, I love a good bass player who can make his/her own stuff.
