Please help with Spanish words for guitar and music?

My sweetie loves the guitar and spanish, and has tried numerous times to get the proper words for these parts of music several times without success.

Can you tell me how to properly say the following in Spanish for my sweetie?

steel strings

nylon strings

classical guitar

acoustic guitar

the neck of the guitar

the bell of the guitar

capo

pick

fret

to strum

to fingerpick

chord

note

major

minor

augmented

diminished

staff

treble clef

bass clef

time signature

key signature

flat

sharp

melody

harmony

to tune a guitar

to compose a tune

to play a tune

Thank you.

Update:

Please use one line per word, like the question. Thanks

Update 2:

Do these terms vary from state to state or from country to country? What are alternate forms? Computerized dictionaries cant provide information like that, but native speakers certainly can.
