The classical guitar has 6 strings.

Parts of the guitar are described like the human body: head, neck, and body.

The neck of the guitar has many lines on it called frets. They change the pitch of the string like keys on a piano.

It was in the late-1800s that the modern classical guitar was developed.

Strings used to be made from animal intestines prior to modern nylon technology.

Many classical guitarists borrow music written for other instruments for performance since the guitar has not been around a long as some others.

The guitar can be used to play melodies by itself or accompany other instruments and singers by playing chords.

The Spanish guitar is significantly louder than an acoustic guitar.

a Spanish luthier, Antonio Torres Jurado, created the modern classical guitar.

The strings are made of nylon
