Is the Spanish guitar the same as the Classical guitar?
A Spanish guitar has a round neck and a Hawaiian guitar has a square neck.A Spanish guitar is meant to be played by picking or strumming while a Hawaian guitar is meant to be on your lap or a table laid flat. A Hawaiian guitar has a high action and is meant to be played with a slide.
Is it harder to learn to play on one guitar or to learn to play on different guitars?
If the question is is it harder to learn to play one guitar THAN it is to learn to play several different guitars at the same time, then in my opinion, it is easier to learn to play by using only one guitar. Start with a 6 string guitar, maybe an acoustic guitar. Get used to that one particular guitar. Then graduate to another guitar, same acoustic type but larger. The frets are the same but the feel is different. then go on to an electric guitar. I've played piano for a long time and I've learned to feel the vibrations the sounds create. Same with the guitar. I need to feel the vibrations. The electric guitar doesn't give much vibrations; so, I prefer the acoustic. Graduate to the base guitar (different guitar altogether). Now it's only 4 strings (unless you're adventuresome and go with a 5-string . . .) Maybe this explanation will help.
Are e strings on and electric guitar the same as on an acustic?
It all depends on what type of acoustic guitar it is, if its a classical then its nylon strung, steel strung acoustics can use the same strings as an electric. Some people prefer "bronze" strings for their acoustic. May 2013 As a side note, It is important to understand strings and acoustic/classical guitars. Classical or palor guitars are best suited using nylon strings since most do not have truss rods in the neck. Therefore keeps the string tension less and not an aid in warping the neck. DO NOT put steel strings on a Classical guitar! Nylon strings also create a warmer more inviting sound for the style of music played. A classical guitar has a slotted headstock not solid and tuning keys are in a downward position. Bronze Phospher strings are best suited for a standard acoustic guitar which Notably has a solid headstock with horizontal tuning keys. These guitars generally have an adjustable truss rod in the neck and aid in support of the string tension pull. Bronze strings allow a less pull on the neck while allowing ease of tuning and a somewhat brighter sound that nylon and warmer than steel. Steel strings can be used on a standard acoustic, but I don't recommended using them. There are many style and gauge strings available for all guitars, when in doubt go to your local music store and ask for help, its free, with the purchase of a set of strings.
Are acoustic guitar strings thicker than electric guitar strings?
For the same gauge designation, yes. "Standard" or "Regular" gauge acoustic strings are .013 to .056. Those would be considered very heavy strings on electric guitar, where "Standard" or "Regular" gauge strings would be .010 to .046.
What is the difference of guitar chords from electric guitar chords?
No, they're all the same. Each string is tuned in the same manner. However, it may be found to be more difficult to play certain chords on an acoustic than an electric due to neck differences, but the finger placement of the chords on both are the same.

Can an electric-acoustic guitar be plugged in to a amplifier?
Yes. An acoustic-electric guitar plugs into an amplifier the same way a regular electric guitar does.
Does the an acoustic electric sound the same as an acoustic guitar when it's unplugged?
yes
Do classical guitars and regular acoustic guitars sound the same?
No. A classical uses nylon strings that are softer than the steel strings found on an acoustic. The acoustic produces a brighter, sharper sound.
Which is good -acoustic or semi acoustic?
An acoustic guitar produces sound via the "sound hole" cut out in the wood under the strings on the main part of the guitar. This is a nice acoustic sound. For a fuller, higher volume and amplitude sound, with the same acoustic-type sound one would would a semi-acoustic. This is an acoustic guitar that has the same kind of volume boost built in, as one would find on an electric guitar. It is important to note that the sound made with a semi-acoustic is still quite different from an electric guitar, even though one would need an amp to play the semi-acoustic.
What is the difference between acoustic guitars and acousic-electric guitars?
Acoustic guitar is what it says acoustic, none electric makes the sound from the guitar body/chamber. Acoustic/electric or electro acoustic look the same as an acoustic but have a pic-up fitted inside the body to link to an amplifier. A Semi acoustic guitar looks more like an electric guitar but with a hollow body or chambered body with pick-ups mounted on the sound board of the guitar.
What are same about the electric and acoustic guitar?
The electric guitar is heavier, the acoustic is hollow, both can be plugged into amps acoustics but might not be able to, they have six strings... That's all I can say...
Are the first 4 chords the same in acoustic guitar?
Actually, everything is the same on the electric and acoustic guitar. The only difference might be the inversions of some chords that you play, because some inversions might sound better on an acoustic guitar while other inversions might sound better on the electric. There is no rule, and everything is absolutely the same on both kinds of guitars.

Would you please demonstrate the use of the word 'classical' in a sentence?
Isn't Mozart a wonderful composer of classical music?Hansel and Gretel is a classical example of the work of the brothers Grimm.Spanish guitar differs from classical guitar, but they sound the same to me.
