good fo you

hey man,
learning electric techniques on a classical guitar is probably a bad idea. a classical guitar has many physical features that make it unsuitable.

the neck is fatter and only allows access to the twelfth fret. the fretboard is wider, the action is SLIGHTLY different, and it has three nylon strings.

i play classical guitar and i highly recommend it for any electric player. i play a lot of metal and punk and stuff but i also play classical. it does help technique and it has really helped my accuracy but stick to classical music with the classical guitar. playing both classical and electric is very helpful, but learning electric technique(and especially shredding) on an classical is not a good idea because of the aforementioned points.

so i recommend getting a classical teacher and/or an electric guitar.
