Question by John H: Is classical guitar really more difficult to play than electric?
They say that classical guitar is more difficult to play than electric, but is this true? There’s an old saying that goes something like this, “it takes a good 15 years to learn to play classical guitar and a good 15 hours to learn rock guitar.”
But, I know that there a certain things on the electric guitar that are really difficult as well, such as pinch harmonics and as far as I know you don’t do pinch harmonics on classical guitar.

An acoustic guitar is bigger and harder to play. Not to mention the strings are thicker.
And there are a number of different methods to picking it.
So it’s a bit harder, yeah.
