RE: El Rumbero goes techno... (in reply to rombsix)
Ramzi,
What can I say....you're incorrigible man..
Main thing about the guitar IMO is that you should enjoy playing otherwise it's a waste of time. So your OK.
Seriously though, I think you would enjoy one of those little effects units to experiment with. The effect I was thinking about was the one that does a decaying "repeat" effect.
Not "echo" or "reverb", but the sound fed back some milliseconds later.
Do you know what I mean?
(You used to get it on the Watkins "Copycat" tape loop unit in the Stone Age. )
I think it would definitely be good on the "damped" rasgueado playing.
Maybe you can get it as an add on to those software recording/editing programs?

lol, nah man not at all, its a very Australian way of saying i like it...i am not beeing diplomatic, i think its brilliant how you are not concerned with anyones taste but your own and do so many different things and do flamenco well too....and again this was a good job too
you are the guy i think enjoys his guitar more than anyone else i have ever seen
RE: El Rumbero goes techno... (in reply to rombsix)
cool, why not? music is music i have a lack of flamenco inspiration ATM, so i'm back to jazzguitar practicing wes montgomery, marc ribot and cindy lauper tunes.. changing repertoire is something creative i think.

Think about doing your own dance mix from the ground up.
You never know. Just one dance floor classic aimed at the Spanish/South American markets is all it takes and you've made enough to buy yourself a nice house.
Don't get me wrong, I'm sure you live in a lovely house but you know what I mean.
