ibear60 -> Intro; Hello foro forum from Auburn Calif. (Jan. 5 2013 17:07:29)

I discovered the forum while searching for a book on flamenco guitar. I'm here now....looks like a good place to learn things.
I started classical and flamenco back in 1968 while at Laney College in Oakland California . I just retired months ago and hope to give guitar more time. Cheers...Lupe Ybarra. (Ibear60)

Greetings from Holland and welcome to the foro. I think 1968 was the year my father became a teacher of classical guitar at Rotterdam University of music. I picked up classical guitar in 1971 and flamenco in 1974.... in 1985 we both joined Paco Peña when he started his flamenco school in Rotterdam (my father as a teacher, i as a student).

Thanks for the reply Erik. I love to study from the Paco Peña book "toques flamenco". He is performing near us in Folsom California in February.
I play flamenco music on my classical guitar (with plastic golpeador) because I haven't purchased a real flamenco guitar yet. I'm hoping to get some good advice on the forum.
cheers… Lupe

Auburn Calif. sounds like an emirate somehow. ^^ Welcome welcome.

I started with a modified classical guitar as well...later i found out it had excellent settings for playing flamenco because the strings run equally close to the soundboard which enables golpes and other kinds of nail on wood contact. Manolo Sanlucar plays a modified classical guitar as well....Toques Flamenco indeed offer a couple of excellent toques :-)
