I go over the pros and cons of Nylon String (Classical Guitar) vs. Steel String (Acoustic Guitar). I play several musical style samples on both types of guitars, so you can get a real idea of how each guitar sounds playing this different music. I also give some advice on why each guitar is beneficial and for what reasons.
