Thank you! The website mentions classical guitar written (under “ABOVE THIS COURSE” section) but on every video when he talks about the course and guitar he says only acoustic and electric guitar.
About the guitar position, can I do the classical position? It’s way better to reach the higher frets and do barre chords. It also let the shoulder (right shoulder, I’m right-handed) to relax in a more natural way (specially if the guitar’s body is too big).
If you have a Classical guitar (rather than a steel string acoustic or electric guitar), and enjoy playing contemporary styles on it, there is no reason to not go through Justin’s course with it in my opinion. Your guitar will have a chunkier neck, softer feeling strings and a different tone, but that’s fine.
One thing the course won’t teach you is Classical guitar songs/techniques/sight reading etc. Classical guitar is very different.
If it’s way more comfortable and easier for you to play like this, I don’t see why not. In the course Justin does teach you how to sit and hold the guitar in a contemporary style, so explore that lesson for sure. But if you feel way more comfortable sitting in a Classical position, go for it. There are plenty of contemporary players who sit like this, including electric guitar players.
