My classical guitar teacher sits at a table, puts a soft cloth on the corner of the table and rests the guitar on the cloth. He claims that position causes the least strain on back, shoulders, hips, and legs. I plan to try it as soon as I have a table in the room where I practice.
By the way, I used to play a dread in classical position. It is possible and not that uncomfortable; but now I have changed to a 000 meeting the body at the 12th fret. That is a lot more comfortable in classical position., Murray
