Found and tried this guitar out at the store. It's an Ibanez and costs only $189.95. It sounds really good, and I just love the feeling of nylon strings. I think I will like classical guitar! The neck does not taper like the neck on an electric or acoustic guitar, the strings are so much easier on the fingers, the body of the guitar is much smaller and lighter, and the action is lower.

I think I'm going to buy this guitar!!
I was under the impression you already played classical guitar? I never got the hang of nylon strings, They never seemed to stay in tune, bugged me to no end.

No. I do play guitar, but not classical (for now). I know some fingerpicking techniques for scales, but that's as much knowledge as I have about classical guitar style. I have plenty of friends who play classical guitar though, and I do know that if the strings are not tied tight enough around the bridge (nylon strings are tied on and don't use pins or have beads), then the knots will slip and the string will go flat. I know that much
