All classical guitars have nylon strings. They are typically designed & built to be suitable for nylon strings and not steel or phosphor bronze strings. Typically they have wider nut slots, flatter fretboards & often not as much stablizing framework (truss rod, body bracing) as a standard acoustic guitar might.

But of course you can put nylon strings on any guitar. But that's not always the best solution.

What kind of guitar do you have?

This one! Model: GNA 111NT by Harmonics
