What are the disadvantages of using folk guitar to play classical

The folk guitar uses steel strings and the classical uses nylon strings, and these two types of strings are very different in terms of thickness, softness, hardness, tension, texture, and tone. Therefore, when plucking these two instruments, the left and right hands will definitely use different playing methods. Playing classical tunes on a folk guitar for a long time will definitely affect and hinder the development of your left and right hands.

At the same time, folk guitars are very different from classical guitars in that their necks are usually thinner than those of classical guitars, and their tones are brighter and louder. All of these things will have an effect on your ability to play classical repertoire.

I don't recommend playing classical on a folk guitar. If you can afford it, buy a classical instrument that is as good as you want it to be. Having a good "weapon" is a blessing for classical guitarists! As for the silver, I can't help you, haha!
