Ahmed Flamenco -> What makes an awesome flamenco guitar? (Aug. 24 2014 13:16:33)

I am still working on my first guitar and I don't know what is gonna be , I am trying to be accurate as much as I can but I am afraid from not getting the sound I want at the end.

What makes an awesome flamenco guitar?

One that was built by an awesome luthier.



tele -> RE: What makes an awesome flamenco guitar? (Aug. 24 2014 20:57:56)

One that sounds awesomely flamenco when you play it[;)]



Anders Eliasson -> RE: What makes an awesome flamenco guitar? (Aug. 25 2014 8:21:22)

One that sounds so good that you forget about the sound and concentrate on the important things like how the guitar feels and responds to your inputs and how you are playing yourself.

I think he wants to build one, not buying one.
If its your first guitar, maybe best would be to copy a good plan (Reyes or something)



Ruphus -> RE: What makes an awesome flamenco guitar? (Aug. 25 2014 9:00:43)

One that was built by a decent plan.

Yes, well, my dealer told me that it is mostly the looks that sell them. Nice sculpture.

What??? You guys are crazy, lasers and rockets are so much better then all this other stuff.......

Flamenco traditionally is low-fi and pacifist ( with the exception of merely skewering some alive bulls or rivals or so in between, should they cross the tablado coincidentally), thus commonly being content with a humble swiss knife incorporated into the neck, featured with fork & knife, a corkscrew and a set of nail polishing tools.

BTW; who the hell has taken my acetone!? [:D]

The irony in life.
Master builders hunting perfection in tone and playability, while at least among semi-advanced user crowd unrelated criterion might attract attention.

Just like with so many other tings in life, actually.
Like ( as I think to have mentioned before) say the relevance of what you say. Which is being estimated to be determining your message at around 11% ( or was it 16%, I am not sure ), after your appearance, hair cut, dress, voice, smell etc. wise. [8|]

i follow anders' post--the guitar sounds the way you want it to sound and feels the way you want it to feel so you can focus on keeping in compas rather than wishing for a better sound or allowing you to formulate notes in your head rather than feeling the pain in your left hand. that said, the sound and feel are so personal that it may be difficult to describe THE awesome guitar.



mellowmel -> RE: What makes an awesome flamenco guitar? (Aug. 31 2014 19:43:59)

Anders points exactly and yours also, Keith - biasses to brand names & investments protection abound! People get so passionate, they get consumed in their own manufactured worlds.

Having said all those though, too bad that even the BEST guitars have their good & bad days.

See guys.
This is what happens when you don't unfold the plans before you build.
Always unfold the plans!
