Why do people hold the classical nylon guitar differently than a steel string?

Why do people position the classical nylon guitar differently in their lap than they do when they play the acoustic steel guitar?

The position you usually see a nylon played in is the proper classical one. It is thought to be more economical of motion to play this way.

Fender® Acoustasonic Junior DSP Guitar Amp $499.99 The new Acoustasonic Junior DSP – an upgraded version of the top-selling Acoustasonic Junior now with DSP effects – is a portable, well built, easy-to-use combo amp designed for natural-sounding reproduction of electric-acoustic guitar and vocals. The new onboard DSP effects and XLR output add extra excitement and usefulness to an already-great formula.Its two 40-watt power sections drive two 8″ drivers and a high-frequency tweeter; the instrument and microphone channels each contain individual EQ controls, phase switches for feedback reduction, FX select and FX level. Our patented String Dynamics™ control tames harsh treble notes, and the feedback notch control removes most feedback problems. Phantom power is supplied at the XLR mic input, and the professional XLR line output with level control and ground lift allows perfect direct input to any mixer. DSP effects include reverb, delay, chorus, vibratone and more, all optimized especially for acoustic performers. Fender tilt-back legs aim the sound where you want it.The Acoustasonic Junior DSP is dressed in our distinctive Brown/Wheat cosmetic treatment. Optional two-button footswitch allows FX on/off selection for each channel.Model Name: Acoustasonic™ Junior DSPModel Number: 221-3200-010 (120V, 60Hz) USA,221-3203-010 (240V, 50Hz) AUS,221-3204-010 (230V, 50Hz) UK,221-3206-010 (230V, 50Hz) EUR221-3207-010 (100V, 50Hz) JPN,Series: AcoustasonicType: Solid StateOutput: 40 Watts Per Channel (Stereo)Ohms: 8 ohmsSpeakers: 2-8″ Fender® Special Design Foster/Culver®, 8 ohm, 50 watt Speakers, p/n 0051016000,1 Piezo Horn, p/n 0049260000Channels: 2 Channels, (Instrument and MIC/LINE)Features: 16 DSP Stereo Effects Per Channel,Instrument Channel:Select from 16 variations of 9 types of effects using the FX SELECT knob.
