yeah! if you have a very long nails,it would be difficult to give out a clear tune and the melody wont come out, so make sure that your nails are short enough while you are playing a guitar.

with long nails its difficult to get right sound while plucking notes or chords on fretboard and sometimes your guitar fretboard can b damaged coz of big nails as fretboard is of wood and nails are sharp enough to give it a damage. Better to cut them.
