Are classical and acoustic guitars the same apart from the nylon and steel strings?
If you buy an acoustic guitar and put on nylon strings does that make it a classical.
I guess what i'm trying to say is i wanna buy a guitar and the acoustic one i want is cheaper than a classical. But the strings are steel and therefore harder on my finger, so should i just buy the acoustic and some nylon strings?
Thanks
Every beginner seems to worried about their fingers hurting; you will get finger pain at the beginning regardless of whatever kind of guitar you buy and it will go away in a few weeks. Don't base your decision on that.
You should decide what kind of music you want to play and buy the best guitar for that. If you wind up with a steel string guitar you can put light or even extra light gauge strings on it and that will not be any more painful than nylon.
It's only a slight exaggeration to say that nylon string guitars - classical guitars, that is - are for playing classical music. For other kinds of acoustic music a steel string guitar is almost always a better choice.
To answer your original question, there are lots of differences. Classical guitars typically have a slot head and a tie bridge and the neck joins the body at the 12th fret. They are lightly braced since nylon strings do not exert the force that steel strings do. They are played fingerstyle.
Steel string guitars usually have a solid head and a pin bridge and the neck joins the body at the 14th fret. (There are lots of exceptions, however.) They typicallly have a pickguard. They are more sturdily braced and there is a truss rod in the neck to keep it straight and properly aligned. They can be played either with a pick or fingerstyle.
