LOVE my Kremona! So few players know of this wonderful Eastern European brand. I played several Spanish and Japanese classic guitars before discovering the room-filling warmth of the Kremona. I would recommend it to anyone, amateur to professional alike.
Hello :) I'm a total beginner (as in I've only had 3 lessons and literally got my first guitar 2 days ago) and this video was easy to follow along with and fun to practice with. Thank you!
Excellent video, Scott. I've been looking into classical guitars - this video was incredibly helpful for kick starting a new technique. Your current Music Theory Course + Scale and Chord Bible + Classical Guitar Package at only $20 is a steal for such a wealth of information and tools, and I pulled the trigger on that package immediately. Thanks for prioritizing your self interest in a way that makes the rest of us want to prioritize our own self-interest. ;) Cheers!
nOOB just learning guitar and have been intrigued by classical guitar. I checked out your video. OMG - those are very sad songs. They gripped my heart and ripped it out. My soul resonates with minor mode. I want more. Time to learn how to do that myself. I'll be a slave to your methods, Master. Patreon, here I come.
Great how you play the classics ... i think it is one of the most difficult genre. Yesterday, cause i like the melody since i was a child, i started to practise "Für Elise" ;-)
Thank you, o Scottmaster, for showing me the light. I thought I'd have a go at learning the Bach bourree on classical guitar, since I've got a book lying around with a fingerpicked arrangement of it ... And although I'd be the first to admit that I don't play the electric guitar very well, it has now come to my attention that I can't play classical guitar at all. Still, I persevere, and I hope within a few months that I'll have the first phrase down.
I have played guitar for decades, mostly rock. You killed bourre, well done. I played Tull style with only notes. No clue it was a Bach song. My classical guitar teacher in college would be pleased I am digging it royally
I hear jack black singing Classico in my head when I play Bourne in E minor and it helps me to remember where I’m at and learn it all piece by piece. I’m still working on it, I’m as far as “shiny golden god”.
Yes, it will be hard to see a Luthier making a classical guitar with a truss rod (but there are some). Then again traditional brands like Córdoba comes with truss rods, as well as some guitars models from La Alahmbra. My own Fender CG-11E (+27 years old) comes with a truss rod. La alpujarra, an Argentinian brand that export to other countries, also comes with truss rod in the recent years. Takamine's and Taylor's (among others makers) classical guitars comes with truss rods too. Also some classical players just play with the fingertips, either because they like the sound better, or because their nails are bascially crap and they don't want to use plastic ones. Never the less, nice video! and cheers from Argentina
Great video...I took classical guitar in high school for 3 years. Still play today. My crowning moment was learning to play Dee. I still wish my teacher was like Shred!
Wow I now see why classical playing gets compared to bass playing technique. Resting and planting. I know it’s basic but it’s cool how identical the techniques are but crazy different the instruments are!!
Me, standing here phone in hand remembering when Wonderwall was first pushed into the ears of the world and still feeling like I want to hurl. I knew it was a "classic" immediately; just like MMMbop would soon become.
Sensei-Shred, we appreciate YOU for devoting your... I mean... our souls to the art and for passing along the timeless, eternal-devotion to us, your loyal & grateful followers!
Dude, how wonderful that you can bring such humor and fun into music that is perceived to be so stuffy. I just bought a beautiful used Hofner HZ 27 classical guitar and I’m ready! I have played piano and acoustic and electric guitar for a thousand years (yes, I am a very old soul and sadly, with a body to match 😁) and I’m ready for a new challenge. Please, where do I go for all of your lessons and materials? Is it Patron or Gumthing or… ? A fan for life, Gary
Shredder Dude 😂 I can’t find your beginners Shredder Classical package. I only read tabs and this will kickstart my playing. Money is burning a hole somewhere. Very uncomfortable 🥴

Hey Scott, Thank you so much for the tutorial. I went from being a noob to making my own youtube channel about classical guitar! Too bad I sold my soul to you for this power. I want to ask can I challenge you to a classical guitar battle to have my soul back?
Oh yes the Adagio on Gm, that's the piece Yngwie J. Malmsteen later used to compose his Icarus' Dream Suite Op.4 on "Rising Force". He changed keys (to E♭m I think on a E♭ tuned guitar I think?) but it's the same essence. It's a nice coincidence most famous electric guitar gods are also proficient in acoustic/classical guitar.
Shred do you know Fabio Lima"? Is the best acoustic guitar player in Brazil, if not, you should watch some of his videos playing old Brazillian songs, is great
Awesome video man, just had one quick question... I went to your patreon and noticed the "pay with my soul option" isn't there anymore, did you stop running that special or is it an I.P tracker that flagged my soul as under collateralised?
Shred I was thoroughly entertained and I learned something as well, I don't think I am quite ready to commit to classical guitar but if I do I will pick up your package (whispers) "Link Below" you did earn a subscription though. Thanks.
serious question: is there any problem with re-stringing a regular acoustic with nylon strings? that BMV1000 fugue was great, and i definitely hear how tinny and bright the steel metal strings are playing bouree.
There are actually quite some problems. 1) Nylon strings are thicker (at least the "high" ones) so they won't fit in the nut slots. And if you file the nut slots to get the nylon strings to fit you won't be able to go back to steel strings. 2) Intonation will be off on at least some of the strings. 3) There's less tension in nylon strings so you may have to adjust the truss rod. So to me it's a better idea to continue using steel strings. (Personally I play classical pieces on classical guitar, acoustic steel-string and electric guitar and I enjoy that even if the sound is totally different )
When I was 15 I bought a “acoustic” guitar at a guitar shop. Turns out al this time it’s been a classical guitar en that’s why the sound sucks when I play acoustic guitar tutorials
I have a shitty heavy ass electric guitar and I've been thinking I should just start my guitar learning journey on a classical guitar instead.... This Peavy amp is badass tho.

Beautiful...Muhaha
Is the classic pack the one that is for noobs I wanna learn it too
I took classical guitar lessons as part of my major in college, this really is a great primer. Keep the great content coming
muhaha, excellent
I absolutely love classical guitar. Metal and rock is great, but classical has a heavy feel all of it's own.
Have you heard classical covers of metal and rock? Not much but worth a listen imo
LOVE my Kremona! So few players know of this wonderful Eastern European brand. I played several Spanish and Japanese classic guitars before discovering the room-filling warmth of the Kremona. I would recommend it to anyone, amateur to professional alike.
lol Shred I played Wonderwall on my Nylon Classical back in the day for my GF. So the joke you made really resonated with me.

This man is legit. Playing for 14 years but i need that next level SHRED. Just subbed. Lets go!!
Very nice. It's great to see classical guitar getting some love. I started my musical journey, some 36 years ago, on classical guitar.
im a beginner and it has been a month, all this time ive been playing my guitar wrong, never knew the difference bet. an acoustic and a classical
hey shred! late to the game here but i loved seeing you bring exposure to our lil world of classical guitar. thanks and cheers!
It’s a magical world 🌎 muhahaha
Thank you a lot for this first incursion into classical guitar basics!
you're welcome muhaha
I've played classical guitar for years and the basics are always good to revisit frome time to time. I still work on my right hand.

Your hillarious dude, and I really enjoy your lessons, who says metal and classical can't co exist ? I like both!
Agreed!
Thank you for this bro, you break down how to play classical hella easy. keep making more videos like this dude plllzz !!!

@Phantom Navigator Ya, well, that's like, your opinion, man...

Great how you play the classics ... i think it is one of the most difficult genre.
Yesterday, cause i like the melody since i was a child, i started to practise "Für Elise" ;-)
0:49 Here I was trying to learn classical guitar with an acoustic fender.
use to be taught classical piano, i wanted to play guitar so why not classical that too. Your page is so helpful, definitely got a new subscriber

Shred, You are Great Man!! So easy talking about of difficult music techniques
Great video...I took classical guitar in high school for 3 years. Still play today. My crowning moment was learning to play Dee. I still wish my teacher was like Shred!
2:10 Your lack of emotion in the laughs is hilarious
Wow I now see why classical playing gets compared to bass playing technique. Resting and planting. I know it’s basic but it’s cool how identical the techniques are but crazy different the instruments are!!
thanks shred for spearheading my journey into classical guitar, im approaching intermediate now
Such a well made thought out video. Good job man
BWV 1000, since when was Bach designing cars?
I’m subscribed to your Patreon, Shred. Ridiculous value!!!! My sincere hope is for you to blow through 250K RUclips subscribers soon.
thanks dude this was pretty helpfull, they're arent many usefull classical guitar tutorials on yt
I will make this comment as a capsule of my first introduction to classical guitar and in month maybe years i'll be "bach" to say "its easy"

Thanks for the content. Love the sense of humor. And I don't play other peoples music. I learned my own.
These videos are informative and funny and almost make you forget what a beautiful guitar player Shred is 8:50
Can u make a sheet reading tutorial? I gotta read notation to play classical
Hey Scott,
Thank you so much for the tutorial. I went from being a noob to making my own youtube channel about classical guitar! Too bad I sold my soul to you for this power. I want to ask can I challenge you to a classical guitar battle to have my soul back?
That’s why I like flying V’s necks at that angle sitting
Classical guitar...so grand hearing. This..thankyou shred master Scott !
Thank you master for everything you do for a noob like me . Muahahaha
Lol that part you played @ 2:59 reminded me of a part in The Who's song "Behind Blue Eyes"
Oh yes the Adagio on Gm, that's the piece Yngwie J. Malmsteen later used to compose his Icarus' Dream Suite Op.4 on "Rising Force". He changed keys (to E♭m I think on a E♭ tuned guitar I think?) but it's the same essence. It's a nice coincidence most famous electric guitar gods are also proficient in acoustic/classical guitar.
Yngwie is a great guitarist but not so much on the classical guitar, he doesn't finger pick.
@@alexjohnston8889 yes but his music is very influenced by classical music
You ever try learning a song but something completely different comes out of it

I was very excited by your thumbnail
Love the sense of humour 👌
Youre awesome ❤
Shred do you know Fabio Lima"? Is the best acoustic guitar player in Brazil, if not, you should watch some of his videos playing old Brazillian songs, is great
Wow Shred, that was a bad ass classical guitar lesson.
playing tango will be the ultimate challenge for classical guitar
Awesome as always! Shred On! Bach On! 🎸
@Shred Did I notice a special technique of your own design there, Shred? It's subtle but distinct @8:24
I want to buy shreds stuff but he legit makes me think I’m gonna give away my soul😂 I know it’s just for fun, at least I think

Was meinst denn mit german dance ?

If you buy nylon strings with ball end, than there should be no problem!
There are actually quite some problems. 1) Nylon strings are thicker (at least the "high" ones) so they won't fit in the nut slots. And if you file the nut slots to get the nylon strings to fit you won't be able to go back to steel strings. 2) Intonation will be off on at least some of the strings. 3) There's less tension in nylon strings so you may have to adjust the truss rod.

Can you please explain when and why or where we use free strokes and where we use rest strokes
