I'm just wondering if anyone made one? What type of wood is needed? For some reason I feel the desire to make one.
What do you mean by classic? Acoustic or electric?I'm just wondering if anyone made one? What type of wood is needed? For some reason I feel the desire to make one.
A classical guitar has no pick guard, has a slightly smaller body. The neck is quite fat and the keys are wound facing back. Strings are nylon. It's held on your left knee extended up as apposed to your right knee. When played the thumb remains behind the neck, never on top. It's picked with long finger nails and strummed very little.afx said:What do you mean by classic? Acoustic or electric?
I made a Les Paul electric copy a few years back. I used Mahogany for the body with a quarter sawn white oak top and mahogany for the neck with a Jobillo overlay for the fret board. It turned out nice.

To get started more quickly try a classic guitar kit from Grizzly: http://grizzly-px.rtrk.ca/products/Classical-Guitar-Kit/T23751I'm just wondering if anyone made one? What type of wood is needed? For some reason I feel the desire to make one.
