Wide Nylon

Can I put nylon strings on an acoustic guitar designed for metal strings?

The metal strings hurt my fingers but I prefer the narrow neck to the wide neck of “classical” guitars.
WHY is it “not recommended”? (DO YOU EVEN KNOW?)

No, you can’t.

First off, you won’t be able to anchor the strings to the bridge. They’ll just slip out from under the pins. Unless you get ball ends… I’ve never seen ball end nylons myself, but I’m pretty sure they make them.

It also won’t sound very good. Steel-string and nylon-string guitars are constructed in very different ways and from different types of wood to enhance the tonal qualities of the strings. Nylon strings on a steel-string acoustic will sound thin and wimpy.

You may also get some bad fret buzz, and will probably have some intonation issues as well.

So while it won’t damage your guitar (unlike putting steel strings on a classical guitar), it will probably sound like crap.
