When people play fingerstyle here, do they sit in the classical position, or the casual one?
Thanks!
casual for me :D
In between, with a tendency to go classical when necessary (e.g., the stretch from 4th to 8th frets in Hodge's Blackbird lesson.)
"Everybody got to elevate from the norm."
I find I have a lot more accuracy and finger control in the classical position. It's designed for fingerpicking, after all, and it keeps the fretboard at an easier angle provided you don't mind having one foot off the floor. Then again, I do everything in classical position, even strumming, so take what I say with a grain of salt. It does look kind of word, of course.

second here in the classical. I also now do everything in classical, I also stand. I use a cushion vs the foot rest.
