Quote of the day... 
Today I was at Otto Vowinkel his workshop in Amsterdam.
My friend's guitar needed a new bone and a little fret job.

Talking about the bone and string hight I heard him say the next thing: " flamenco guitarists prefer their strings únder the frets"

jose ramirez 3 in his book made reference to high action on a flamenco (my paraphrase): the action is so high two dogs could fight under the strings
