This is obviously a late reply! 🙂 I’ve been a beginner at the classical guitar for almost 45 years on and off now!! 🙂 🙂 I used a stool forever. My back started hurting on the side with my foot raised. I switched about 5 years ago to a Dynarette guitar pillow. You place the pillow on your thigh, and now your feet are flat on the floor. Relieved all the pain! Although the pillow is designed for the left leg (classical guitar style) I have moved it over to my right to play TAC/folk /steel stings…works fine. The pillow raises the guitar about 4-5 inches….I too would get sore feet from one foot on another, wrapping feet on chair rungs, etc.
I looked up the Dynarette pillow…apparently they have fallen under the ‘supply chain problem’. There is a similar pillow from Oasishumidifiers.com…under Acessories…under Guitar supports. I also switched to a smaller stool, so my legs form a 90 degree angle with my floor…helps my back!
You may also have a small pillow at home that is just right…save some $$.
Sorry if this was so long winded!! Good luck!
