How to sound like Paco in 3 easy steps:

1. Slide a thick cloth underneath your strings to mute them.

2. Put on your favorite Paco recording.

3. Move your fingers to the music.

Voila!

Hey guys, I've got another question for you: What's the secret behind pacos amazing tone? I suggest the guitar strings are very important, so which brand did he prefered? And did he used a little bit of delay or chorus effects to make the guitar sound like that? Thanks again. PetrucciFan

thats is not easy to achive , but;

play as much as you can for paco, be a paco addicted,
