originally tijeretamiel: Personally, if I had doubt towards something like this I wouldn't be up for going ahead with it, be it buying a guitar or something else. To be honest, I came from Rock Guitar world. All my guitars where cheaper models. As long as the neck was straight, I could lower the action, I NEVER had a problem with learning. I NEVER wanted a $4000 Paul Reed Smith, etc. I was happy with my $200 silver tone Les Paul guitar and or my $450.00 mexican strat. I wish it was like this with Flamenco Guitar! The Franisco Navarro Student flamenco was nice, but, after a while I was wishing for something better. This might now sound to nice, but, I noticed that if I D'addario strings on my Student Navarro the guitar didn't as good (tone wise) like when I put a more expesensive brand. The feel of the Student model was nice, but, when I played my friends $3k guitar that he purchased HANDMADE from Spain, OMG, the neck felt totally different....Easier then the Navarro and comfortable! I hope I don't get scorned for this, but, I tried a Cordoba GK blanca and well, it's not a traditional flamenco guitar, but, that guitar felt nice in my hand. I know, it is a factory made piece of junk, but, it wasn't bad for the price. However, a friend told me if I were to get this guitar, I would loose in the long run. The resale value is horrible on them. I also know of somone who would be selling a Yamaha CGX 171scf and at least that has a traditional 52mm nut...It has goose neck pick ups and well the guitar it self might be kind of fun, till deciede on what route to go... I also know the resale value is pretty good on those guitars... Any how I am just babbling at this point, more than likely, handmade will probably be my option. Kalo
