Hi Rawinder

The difficulty of playing a classical guitar as opposed to an electric guitar is subjective and depends on factors such as the player’s experience and musical tastes Classical guitars can require a lot of finger strength due to them thanks to the wide neck and nylon straps, emphasizing toe clearance. Electric guitars with narrow-neck steel strings may require less finger strength for fretting, but the difficulties in bending and playing techniques present the obvious discomfort of an addiction self-will and goals of the player. It is best to choose the type of guitar that matches his musical tastes and to commit to practice to develop skills regardless of his chosen instrument.
