Piwin -> RE: Flamenco Guitar, From Scratch (Jul. 27 2016 0:19:15)

- I don't know what the going rate for guitar lessons are in the US, but if I were you, I would still try to find some way to work it out. Even just one class a month or every two months, depending on what you can afford, so that you can get an expert's view on your technique and what not. You can be upfront with a teacher about what you expect from a class, and if he knows you can only come in every so often, I'm sure a good teacher would be more than happy to just focus on helping you find the right hand positionings, or whatever it is that you think you specifically need. I seem to have been posting this a lot lately: http://www.manuelgranados.net/estudios-descargas/ Free and quality stuff but maybe not all that useful without knowing any basic technique. I think you can learn just fine by ear. However, I profoundly disagree that this means flamenco is "without much focus on minor details". If you use the search function of the foro I'm sure you'll find plenty of other interesting stuff, with tips, exercises, etc. As for super glue on the fretting hand, I've never heard of that before. On the other hand, sure. But on the fretting hand? Not sure I see why anyone would need that, especially on the tips on the finger. I mean on the nails sure. but you're not going to break your finger tips... Recommended players: Sabicas, Paco de Lucia, Nino Ricardo, Paco Cepero, Vicente Amigo, Moraito, Diego del Morao, Gerardo Nunez, El Viejin, Ramon Montoya, Sabicas again, Manolo Sanlucar, Rafael Riqueni... the list would be endless but that's a start. Oh and...Sabicas again! (what do you mean I'm biased!!) [:D]
