NYLON STRING GUITAR

Dust off that old nylon-string and take a look at some creative ways to use it in your music

Hands up who has a classical guitar gathering dust in the loft or locked away in a cupboard? Okay, now put your hand down and go and show your neglected nylon string a little love, just as we are here with a couple of lessons that’ll help you think differently about this oft‑overlooked instrument. We’ve taken our inspiration from Polyphia’s 2022 track Playing God and from the modern flamenco sounds of Jake Bugg’s The Happiest Man In The World soundtrack album.
