    A friend of mine from my high-school metal band days went on from a super-shredder to quite respected classical player. Even back then he was obsessed with doing a metal rendition of Paganini's Caprice No. 5 as he 'couldn't stop hearing it in his head' and he was trying to convince us that it was 'metal music of the XIX century'. Gosh darn it, I think he was onto something...

    Several, if not many, years ago I ran across a "Spanish" guitar at an estate sale. The thing was like $45. In good shape with a hard case. I figured 'why not'. I had modern electrics and acoustics. Turned out that this guitar was made in the Philippines during WWII. I'm no classical guitar expert - or player for that matter - but to my ear, it sounds pretty decent. I drag it out on occasion and noodle with it. The sound is just SO relaxing.

    I had a few classical guitar lessons 50 years ago, but didn't understand the part about practicing slowly to build muscle memory and practicing a piece a gazillion times until you've really got it. My ADD kept on getting distracted with folk music and rock 'n' roll (of course, at the time no one knew what ADD was.) And what I really wanted to learn was fingerpicking for playing like James Taylor. Along the way I applied some of the classical techniques and now I play to relax and keep on learning.

    The very first song I ever learned on guitar was Romanza. Coming from a classical background (cello, violin, viola and bass), I always wanted get into guitar, but for rock. Ended up playing mostly metal and neo-classical/prog, which is a nice blend between the two. It's crazy to hear the difference between the "cheap" guitars vs the 5k+ ones. I never really feel like you can truly do the same with electric guitars to that same level of distinctness. It's just so drastically different.

    I find the electronics tend to make the biggest difference. There is nuance in the construction of the body but like, $60 pickups and $1000 pickups is where the massive difference is going to lie. Other things like your bridge style (and I don't care what the benefits are, a Floyd Rose bridge is a hateful thing and you can't convince me otherwise) or machine heads or just what tone adjustments you can do is what makes an expensive electric guitar worth it. The rest is just craftsmanship. Smooth frets, good intonation, a strong neck, good wiring... Marks of a good guitar.

    My parents had vinyl records and a couple of them had classical guitars on them. One was John Williams playing Bach. Such a beautiful album. The other was Classical Gas by Mason Williams. A great mix of classical guitar and modern ensemble music. Although I myself can not play classical guitar like Brandon Acker (or even the 9 year old virtuoso), I still enjoy the sound and the emotion the artist brings to the instrument. It's fun to dabble with from time to time.

    I learned to play guitar on a cheap classical, and I didn't know that other acoustic guitars were different. So I would play Iron Maiden bass lines, attempts at Metallica parts, Jane's Addiction parts, etc. on that guitar. I learned fingerstyle on that guitar, learned a few classical tunes. My other guitar was electric, it was for all the metal stuff. Thirty years, I've picked up a steel string acoustic and realized just how different that instrument is. But I've always appreciated that I started on a classical. Oh, and it makes wide frets seem so easy, in fact, I prefer any guitar with a wide nut.

    this was an excellent video - thanks so much for exploring the classicals. I recently spent quite a bit of time trying out classicals for my son who is starting to become interested in them (and also flamenco music) and I was struck just how foreign the instrument felt - I've been playing electrics and acoustics for 30+ years and I was dumbfounded how much I felt like a newb when trying these instruments. we ended up getting him a lower-end yamaha after he tried a few and it was the right fit. gotta admit, when i hear him in his room messing with la malaguena i get shivers listening to it. They are truly amazing instruments. Please do more like this - more guitarists need to explore classicals.

    one of the best things I did was pick up a classical guitar while learning my scales and arpeggios to make some really beautiful stuff it really conveys so much emotion and teaches you a lot of control of expression as you play. it was a cheap entry level one but man does it ever sound incredible mic'd up with some reverb too :3

    It is always such an enlightening experience to see somebody who is already extremely experienced at one instrument pick up something new. In this case especially, because it isn't even a new instrument but a new style. Watching a great musician struggle and be humbled by a brand new challenge gives some perspective to newer musicians that everyone had to start somewhere

    I love my classical guitar. Of the "stable" I only have one, and it's the "Yamaha beater" of classical guitars, I think I paid 400 bucks for it new. It's great though, it's such a unique playing experience versus all my other guitars, plus those nylons can be nice on sore fingers. This was a joy to watch! Your video got me to pull out my old music book for classical. Thanks!

    Now this is really superb content. I personally have long loved nearly all forms of guitar music, not just the metal/rock/prog/instrumental rock/jazz which live closest to my heart but also classical, flamenco, folk, etc. I don't believe I am special, but I do believe widening one's horizons is never, ever a bad thing for any music lover. Well done here!

    started on classical didn’t mess with it journeyed through several electrics and acoustics. It wasn’t until I had injured my wrists skating and took a summer off guitar and when I came back I didn’t plug into my setup or even pick up the acoustic, I went towards the classical and it really opened my eyes. Started crafting up compositions and different ideas because I was so engulfed in this sound. Truly a wonderful instrument, I’ll still go crazy on my other guitar but when the weathers right, this one’s in my arms.

    I love this guitar 'cross-cultural' roadtrip! Actually, I had already imagined Brandon doing a 'roadtrip' format where he's driving and picks up a guitarist of another genre, talk shop and play what they know/compare notes, etc. This is as close to that vision as I could have hoped PLUS they added the luthier angle! Outstanding, guys!

    Man, thanks so much for making this video. I really enjoyed it. I think the vast majority of electric guitar players really don't know much about classical guitar, and how different it is. It really is like a completely different instrument to play. And to watch a virtuoso play, is really something else. The level of technical proficiency is mind boggling. I abandoned the electric guitar several years ago, and have become obsessed with the classical guitar. It's in my hands the majority of the time I'm home.

    Very cool video, as I, like many others started on electric, then have dabbled in acoustic, now more recently banjo, I never really knew this type of guitar playing was out there, I have heard it, but didn’t understand it, thanks for this little foray in to this incredible type of playing and these beautiful instruments.

    Wow, this is great. I think one of the greatest things about Classical Guitar is the interpretation and how different two players will make the same piece sound. In my mind Julian Bream will always be the gold standard but I like others as well.
