No, playing chords on a classical guitar is easier than a steel string accoustic. The reason is that the strings are slacker, and softer on the fingertips (mine look like a lunar landscape), the frets are more defined and the fretboard is wider so theres less risk of hitting the wrong string.Jon Miller: MikeH speaks the truth

My girlfriend plays both flute and piano to grade 8 but says she isn't quite good enough to play professionally.
I can't even manage the paper and comb, but I've promised myself I'll learn to play the tenor sax before I retire so I can spend lazy days making a godawful racket! I may get her to teach me the piano now we've got one, but I'm not sure she (or anyone) has the patience.

from guitar and piano (badly)
The rest of Apolyton should be grateful. The other two Northamptonians have heard Drogue sing! . Perhaps "sing" is a little strong....

But not to me
I didn't take any grades below 7 But I messed up royally on both and got good marks, no idea how they found that many marks. The first time I sorta flirted with the nice lady and she managed to find me the exact mark for honours
Wish the Uni's did that!Smile

Played piano since I was 6, mostly rag and jazz early on and moved to classical in college. Still play to this day, just for fun.
Played Alto Sax since I was 10; jazz. Stopped playing when I was 18-19. Friends and I had a jazz band that played around town for mall opening, block parties, weddings, etc...
Played Bassoon since I was 12; classical (duh). Stopped playing when I was 24-25... Played in the HS band (winter season), Played for the Fresno Youth Philharmonic, State Honor Bands and Orchestras, UC Davis symphony orchestra, and for small production around the Sacramento area.
I can also play clarinet, though only when my sister lets me steal her instrument; which I ussually do and can get away with fo 1-2 years at a time.
I use to play the penny whistle a lot. Then I got a dog and whenever I play it she attacks me...
Decent with the harmonica.

I've been playing classical piano since I was seven (O so many years ago). Apart from a few singing lessons (opera), I haven't had the chance to study any other musical instruments.
The pieces I'm working on right now include Liszt's Liebestraum, Chopin's Fantasia in D Minor, Brahms' Rhapsody in G major, and the infamous third movement of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata (known affectionately around here as the "Apeshit Movement"."lol internet" ~ AAHZ
