I'd enjoy it more if the information were objective and not soaked in sales pitches. also, the harmony section is incorrect. In order for it to be VI V IV III then the tonic of the piece couldn't be that III...BUT IT IS. thus, it cannot be a III. III implies mediant relationship with a I. if there is no I to make that a III, then it is not III. The whole progression is now incorrect. Wow, other things I could pick on.... "Being born with the soul of a gypsy as a part of their DNA, these surroundings enable them to learn flamenco guitar from generation to generation by listening, looking, repeating, imitating and playing" --- wow, a gypsy soul! embedded in their DNA!! holy cow!! where can i get one? If I had one, I would automatically be good at flamenco and know everything. "Flamenco teachers in Spain rarely use books or tabs in their lessons. The students don’t learn guitar pieces. They don’t know chord names and they mostly don’t speak the technical language of music theory. However they can feel the sound of their guitar and strings, and play all functions, just like magic." JUST LIKE MAGIC!!! seriously?? seriously??? what the hell are you talking about? Scientology? it's called memorization. anyone can do it. Oh, and that's downright offensive to the intellect of basically everyone you lumped into that paragraph. so all flamencos are magical gypsies with magical gypsy souls in their DNA who are magically good at things but don't know anything about what they are playing. Nope these guys dont know the names for things they play on the guitar, they dont need to. they are magical....ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? Lets not give them any credit for working hard, practicing, memorizing and putting actual real effort into things. Lets attribute all of their success and innovation TO BEING MAGICAL GYPSIES!!! Get real. lose the Bullsh*t.

yeah, the DNA thing is funny. you should delete this bullsh!t we had such discussion often here. its not race or DNA. its just the enviroment, where they grow up surrrounded with a lot of flamenco , so they learn this stuff from childhood and absorb it ! But if a blond kid would grow up there, he would be the same as a gypsy. Oh and we also have a lot of gyspies who can't play anything. but anyway, Rezar Dominguez is a nice and friendly guy. He shared a lot of flamenco stuff before this La Sonanta thing , free on youtube, etc. these guys (Rezar, PAco Fernandez, etc.) really love what they do i think. you see that there is lot of passion in what they do. I don't care if business is involved and even mixed with another site to boost the sale. I mean we all have to make a living ! (except if there are obvious hiding information, like in the case of Prof.) The only thing i don't like about La Sonanta are those Plastic Andalusian Guitars from fake Professor LoL. I think you are the only company selling those crap guitars. Anyway, other than that, your site is cool. Some very cool guitars in your inventory. Also cool videos on youtube. Keep up the good work. Ole !
