The difference between folk guitar and classical guitar

First, the appearance difference: the shape of the classical guitar is relatively unified. The classical guitar has a wide fingerboard and a small piano box.

Folk guitars have various shapes and different strings. Folk guitars have narrow fingerboards, and classical guitars are unplugged. Folk guitars can be connected to speakers.

Second, the difference between the piano head

This is the easiest feature to distinguish. The head of a classical guitar is generally hollowed out and mechanically twisted, the fingerboard of the neck is wide and flat, and the joint between the string pillow and the handle and the box is 1, using nylon strings.

Generally speaking, the head of a folk guitar is not hollowed out, and the fingerboard of the neck is narrow, and sometimes the fingerboard has a radian design. From the pin pillow to the joint between the handle and the piano, it is generally 14, and steel strings are used. The timbre of metal strings and nonmetal strings is easy to distinguish. Steel strings have metal colors, but nylon strings don't.

Third, the difference between the neck and the piano

The neck of folk guitar is narrower and slightly longer than that of classical guitar, which is convenient for pushing strings and pressing horizontally.

The fingerboard of classical guitar is much wider than folk songs, which is convenient for fingers to move quickly.

Talent is reflected here to a certain extent, and finger length is of great help to classical guitar.

Fourth, the difference between piano and bridge

Piano bridges and folk guitars use chord cones and a large area of bridge wood in order to cope with steel strings with high tension, and the upper end is arched.

The classical guitar is manually wound and has a small bridge plate, which is flat.

Five different forms of performance

Classical guitar has strict requirements in playing posture, holding piano and touching strings with fingers. The playing skills of classical guitar can be described as standardized and profound. Classical guitars can play guitar solo, ensemble and so on.

Folk guitar is much more casual. You can play standing, sitting, lying, twisting, walking and so on. Folk guitar is relatively simple and suitable for accompaniment. If you need to play classical music, or Spanish or South American music, you must choose classical guitar. If you mainly play solo and melodious music, you may prefer classical guitar. If you are mainly accompanied by a little pop solo, choose a folk guitar. If you play fingering style, you can use whatever you like. Generally speaking, steel string guitar is the main one.

Sixth, from the scope of performance.

Classical guitars are mainly used to play classical music, such as Bach, Tarrega and barrios, and at the same time, they can take into account some modern music, such as me? I believe there are many Schindler's List performed by Yang Xuefei. It has a good interpretation of various styles of music in different periods and nationalities. Beethoven, the great classical god, said, "The timbre and harmony of the guitar are very rich, just like a small symphony orchestra".

Folk guitar works well. Beginners can learn to play a song and sing a song for a beautiful girl in a short time with little knowledge of music theory. Folk guitar is mostly used to accompany songs, and quite a few people use it to play fingering solo, usually a solo version of modern music or songs. Japanese idol Takeo Sang is a familiar fingered guitar player.
