Wlcome to the foro. In order to start playing flamenco you dont need a pro level guitars, but of course, if you have a lot of Martins to sell, it might not be a problem[:D] With respect of the 12 cycle compás, I find that Alegrias are the easyest to follow when you are new into this compás style. Also, its a lot more difficult to follow the rythmic pattern when listening to solo guitar. When listening to flamenco with guitar and singer only, the compás is in general more easy to follow. Alegrias have their main accents on 3, 10 and 12 and they mark the 7 and 8 strongly in order to go to 10 which is "the remate" , the conclusion of the 12 beat cycle. Good luck. Here, you´ll find a lot of information. Anders
