What distinguishes a classical guitar and a classical guitarist?

A classical guitar has some specific features in its anatomy. It has six strings with the treble strings made of nylon and the bass strings made from nylon wrapped in brass wire. Unlike an electric guitar which has cutouts to allow hand placement at the higher frets, the classical guitar is symmetrical. The sound of the guitar comes from the simple resonance of the guitar body and through its single sound hole.

A classical guitarist is more than someone who simply plays a classical repertoire. The way the guitar is played is also important. Essentially, a classical guitarist plays by plucking the strings with the nails of his right hand fingers and thumb; no pick is ever used.
