Guajiras/Alegrias compás anybody

Hey guys,

any of you have some palmas or cajón you could send me? I'd buy a CD but things are tight financially this month

Thank you much!
John

Um, dude it is the same as bulerias. Just use that clacking thing you used for your bulerias, but slow it down.

Plus there are tons of percussion loops uploaded in the Audio section. Search for em. Florian, Edgar, Romerito I think, maybe ToddK too.

I wanted something for recording and I hate that clacking thing, man - it's a simple metronome with a flamenco clock. It has no accents and could be used for anything really, but it sounds horrible. No good for recording and I know it even annoyed some people on this forum, too. Also I was thinking a cajón for the guajiras. I'll check out the audio section.

Thanks,
John
