    What did you think you were gonna see here? Anyway - I have a cheap Classical Nylon Ibanez and I am OK with that. I would however like to try recording with it (and I can use mics cause there is too much ambient noise like drums...) So I don't really want to install a pickup and The only...

    From zero training to decent singing ability? How long and how much practice?

    I have taken a few voice lessons - Teacher says I can hit the pitches dead on when playing along with piano and doing exercises.
