ORIGINAL: Womble .....should I start with the Aaaron Gilmartin set....or the Juan Martin La Guitarra Flamenca Book plus 2 DVDs ? I don't want to get in a mess! Thats a legitimate concern - as I already said, I think a complete beginner probably would get in a mess if they stockpile methods/tutors and try and do everything at once. Especially as there are many ways to approach things. Stick to one for now, Juan's material is fine and is good, simple material for beginners. If you have no teacher, record yourself when you have some things you can play and upload them here for feedback. PS Nigel is absolutely right about lessons. You just can't compare the price of a method with the price of a lesson from a good teacher. If you find you get bitten by the bug, like the rest of us you will end up getting help and information from a whole variety of sources - this forum, videos, books, listening to flamenco (very important), lessons as/when you can etc.
