Irish -> RE: Which guitar should i buy? (Jun. 8 2017 9:29:34)

Hi rainbow. (Firstly, I am not a flamenco guitarist. I am very much a beginner so take this with a pinch of salt!) I bought the thomann.de 1f flamenco guitar. It is well priced at 159€. Has the blond look if that is what you want. there is a second colour available otherwise. It is loud. It is light. It plays very well. It has a slight buzz on the frets the louder you play, but this is avoidable if you dont like that sound. It is thinner than classical guitars. I like it a lot. It is however my first owned nylon string guitar. I have played a few though. If you are just starting out and 159€ is manageble I can highly recommend this for you. My idea is that if I get good eventually, I will save up for a 'better' flamenco guitar, handmade if possible. But I might not get to that point.. I have played steel string for almost 30 years, so I do get guitars and sound and feel, just to put this purchase in perspective. Anyway, thats my input, hope it helps... Thomann Flamenco Guitar (EDIT: Oops, this could be a decision maker or breaker, the action is a little high for flamenco according to what I have read and heard so far, but I don't have anything to compare it to first hand, and action can be lowered by a mm or maybe 2 if needed.)
