The just intonation guitar will make you... uh... fret.

How fucking dare anyone out there make fun of the guitar, after all it's been through. It's a GUITAR. Leave it ALONE! You're lucky it even performed for you BASTARDS!

Thanks! Barrios' La Catedral is a favourite, and this is a nice perfomance. It's definitely worth checking out other Barrios music, if you have not heard of him before.

Toru Takemitsu made very sweet guitar arrangements of contemporary songs (Over the rainbow, yesterday). And, of course, Paulinho Nogueira was a master of the classical guitar.

It will also make you feel like the world is in perfect harmony. Never take your tuning system for granted, people! I also wanted to chime in that no discussion of the classical guitar is complete without mentioning Carcassi (the teacher), Segovia (the master), or my favorite piece of all time -- Claude Debussy's La fille aux cheveux de lin (The Girl with the Flaxen Hair), originally for solo piano.

The Fender Stratocaster will make you feel...
... gasoline in the sand
... a motorcycle at a hotdog stand
... the Dunkin Donuts in Mattapan
... the Thrifty Drugs in Santa An'
... a tin can falling on a dead end street
... a bitchy girl who just don't care
... Woo Woo Ginsberg at the juke box joint
You hear the sound and you get the point.
(sorry, this post just made me think of the song)
More on topic, the late, great John King turned his Ukulele into a vehicle for some beautiful classical playing.

"Fender Stratocaster" without the 30 second cut off for subsequent clicks. Sorry.

Also, anyone interested in classical guitar may also find pleasure in learning about the oud, the great grandfather of the classical guitar with many similarities in playing style.

I like this other one by Los Angeles Guitar Quartet called Djembe. It's half of an African suite - the other half of which is called Mbira (sample only). The first one is happy and peppy. The second one is gentle and beautiful.
