  • Good clip bro. BTW is that a Cat Meowing..or kitten @1:40 oh and what is the brand of the guitar on the acoustic (blue)? Cheers dude.

  • @VIPER534 I don't have a cat so I was very curious to see what you mean.. But it is just the first string slipping over the fret. It was a cheap Tenson D-10 with very soft strings.

  • can you play classical music on an acoustic guitar? like can you mix it up or would it just not sound very good. nice video btw

  • @mike28471 Technically it is possible. The problem is that much of the classical guitar technique uses fingernails and with steel strings they wear out very fast. More likely you can play some Latin or Brazilian music on an acoustic. But one can always experiment, the rules don't apply equally for everyone.

  • Whats the song called thats played up to 00:48?

  • @321Dbale123 That is a track from Kristo Käo's recent solo album "Live at Cafe Sadhu", an original composition by Kristo. You will find this music from CDBaby and iTunes and Amazon but you can also write info@kitarrikool.eu to get this track for free.

  • I kinda prefer the classical guitar,,,I think it sounds better , I think acoustic is better if u r playing the rythym part.....but acoustic sounds better in songs like nothing else matters and fade to black

  • The classical guitar has more of a crisp sound

  • @Bludhoundz8 Fingerpicking is hard, but making it work is so rewarding! Go for it, it will take you only a couple of weeks to learn how to use a pick :)

  • @Mariooma13 Well, in terms of learning, they're pretty much the same. I learned with both an acoustic guitar and an electric guitar. Which ever one you can use. All guitars are beautiful in their own way. :)

  • I am about to begin studying 'A Modern Method for Guitar' by William Leavitt. I want to study using a classical guitar, but is finger picking an easy concept to grasp? I play the electric guitar so I use picks exclusively.

  • Can I know which guitar is more for the rhythms? Thanks. :)
