Hello everyone.I been playing guitar for around 10 years and belong to a big online lessons website.I play mostly acoustic blues and classsic rock.The website has about 15 Flamenco lessons,i took them all ,and fell in love with Flamenco/Spanish guitar.I want to learn more now.I found Jose Tanaka's website and think his online lessons would be great for me.I dont at this time have money for skype lessons,and Jose basic membership is the right price for me now.I cant afford to pay over $20 a month.I just barely know a little Flamenco basics,do you think Jose's online lessons would be good for me?Should i join up for his online lessons?I dont even have a Flamenco guitar yet.I am going to get the Yamaha 172SF guitar on the first of August for my birthday.So what do you people think i should do? join Jose Tanaka's online lessons or not?Thanks for your help and advice.Cheers, James

I've been there for a year and it's a great site .. he has many beginners stuff
the only problem in your case is that you've been playing acoustic guitar for 10 years so adjusting your technique would be hard I guess
I think the best solution is that you try to copy jose and other maestros' technique as much as you can ... then post videos here and get feedback
or just find your self a real teacher who can observe your techniques all the time because trust me .. developing wrong bad techniques is like a nightmare
