The name classical guitar does not imply that only classical pieces are performed on it, although classical music is an important part of the guitar’s history. Rather, all kinds of music (folk, alternative, jazz, flamenco, etc. ) are played on it today.
In the 19th century, a solo guitarist would usually perform as part of an ensemble in small concert venues. Eventually, professional soloists would perform recitals to big audiences in larger venues. Guitar makers began looking for ways to make the concert guitar louder. This search perhaps started with the Spanish guitar maker Antonio Torres Jurado in the late 19th century.
The classical guitar is sometimes called the “Spanish guitar” because Torres, working with Juilian Arcos, essentially redesigned the material, the shape, and the construction of the guitar. The changes Torres made modified the tone and increased the volume by increasing the size of the soundbox. Francisco Tarrega (1852 -1909) pioneered the new techniques employed by concert guitarists, including the positioning of the guitar on the player’s left knee, correct placement of hands, and methods for plucking the guitar (usually with the back of one’s fingernails).

Okay, so I’m 15 years old BUT, I have been playing guitar since I was 5 years old, and the only guitars that I own are a squire bullet, (which I hate) and an epiphone hummingbird. (which I love) So i have decided to save my money and get a nice quality electric guitar. I have had my heart set an the fender american vintage ‘62 strat reissue ever since I first layed eyes on it at the guitar shop. Then I picked it up and played it, and I just knew that I had to have it. The tone is just PERFECT for my style of music. The only problem is that I can’t get a job because I’m only 15. And my parents aren’t loaded, so they can’t just go and buy me a 2 thousand dollar guitar. So does anybody have any ideas on how I can earn and save up $2000 relatively quickly? Thanks in advance.

I’m getting a Fender electric guitar for the holidays but I can’t decide what model to pick. Should I get a Fender Vintage Hot Rod ‘57 Stratocaster or an Eric Clapton Stratocaster? I love to play tones that range from vintage to metal.
