Yeah man, but don’t forget that people believe what experts say…
for instance Nino Seve told me that this guy is THE expert in PDL
and that he also consults him often in Malaga, and Seve is a great gypsy player,
also Antonio Rey himself says here (min. 1:09)
that even Paco de Lucia himself was amazed to see how RD played his music at eighteen etc, that’s the problem, you see…?
cause all this guys are great players and people will not care for what we say…

quote:
and I checked the link he posted from El Pais and unfortunately its true, here you can see
unfortunately people read things like that and don't know the whole deal about paco and his guitars. People forget already the same quote from some other magazine years back where he says the guitar has superior tone and projection, and didn't like to play it at home because it was HARD to play, that's all. It has a stiffer action but sounds good, but he would rather play a ****ty sounding guitar at home that is easy to play. That's all there is to it. Anybody that plays a lot live knows when you are nervous you can play too hard at times and easy low action guitars often give out. THat's the nervous energy thing he talks about, so such a guitar as his is not so fun at home but delivers the goods on stage (obviously).
And to go back further, this guitar and the one he used right before this with guitar trio 1980 are replacements for his FAVORITE guitar that was stolen in 1979 from his car...also a Conde negra from 70's. So he found replacements for his BEST guitar that were very similar....but the BS that he hated the guitar etc is a cute exageration he liked to make, calling guitars in general his enemy etc because they make him work hard. People need to get a grip.
