Thread Name: Classical vs.steel string guitars
Subject: RE: Classical vs.steel string guitars
I played some slide with a classical. The action on most full-sized classical guitars is pretty high and I tuned to open E which puts more tension on the strings than normal tuning. As a result, it sounded good using a light-weight Dunlop glass slide. (I usually use a very heavy brass one with my steel string.)
