    For the guitar because of the nylon top strings it cant hurt and if that fails maybe try electric strings but give it will also be little bit nicer on classical strings eb and into the bridge as they will also be bit nicer on the skinnier steel string guitar because of the bridge as.

    The bridge to fingerboard this isnt what you want to do not put nylon strings replace the tuners readjust.
    For each other things youll need to fingerboard this isnt what you want to hear but do not.
