Hey! I am going to have a few months gap from work and I am planning to relocate somewhere in andalucia where I can find a good flamenco scene and teachers. I am fluent in spanish and English and have a decent technical knowledge of flamenco, being able to play most of the techniques, though I have never studied any repertoire, played in groups or learned any Palos. I was thinking of going to either Granada or Sevilla, but I am open to other suggestions. I am also interested if you can recommend any specific teachers. Thank you! submitted by /u/Nero401 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hello, I've played some flamenco when I was a teenager and then stopped for around 10 years. Now I'm thinking of getting back and wanna buy a flamenco guitar. Some of the guitars I've heard about are: Marlon Navarro student, Alhambra 4f/3f, Cordoba f7, Kremona Rosa Morena, Juan Montes Rodriguez. Do you guys have any recommendations? My budget is around 800-1000$. I'm also not sure if I should get a guitar with electronics, I seem to like the amplified sound, however, I'm not planning to gig with the guitar.

Hi all! I'd like to explore Flamenco and I was wondering whether you had suggestions of artists and songs. I particularly like the guitar, like Paco de Lucía, and amazing voices like Camarón de la Isla. If you have more suggestions I'd be much obliged. submitted by /u/RaymondLuxuryYacht02 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Are there strings that are not wrapped in metal on the bass side? I keep busting open my cuticles while strumming and I think it's because of the metal. submitted by /u/InfiniteTrazyn [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Background: I'm an experienced guitarist, but new to flamenco and nylon string guitars in general. My intention is to really learn flamenco, learn the technique, the palos, etc. I was looking for guitars and I ran across a listing for a Cordoba Solista Flamenco 2008 for $1000 that seemed just ridiculous (next one up was $1500 for a guitar with cracked sides), so I got it. I know it's not everyone's favorite but I think the deal was too good to pass up. It came in today, and I'm trying to figure out if there's something wrong with it. It looks dead mint to be honest and sounds pretty good to m ..read more

I split time between two cities and I don't want to lug my guitar back and forth on a plane so I'd like to get a second guitar. I have a Alhambra 3F and I love it, I enjoy the percussive aggressive sound. I'd like to get something a little nicer for my second one, and I found both a used Navarro student and a used Rosa Blanca for sale around the same price. I'd have to order them online so I wont be able to play them ahead of time. I bought my 3f by listening to YouTube and it seemed to really standout from what I've heard in that price range. However I can't make a decision between these two ..read more
