Jin Oki is a very talented flamenco guitarist from Tokyo. I think he placed fourth in the Cordoba Guitar Competition in 2005 (?). If you'd like to check out a video, here's a link from YouTube.

wow ....what a great guitarist! Thanks man...i really enjoyed looking and listening to this guy....

I have a CD by a Japanese called Taketo which I bought in Andalucia. I think he lived in Sevilla, his sister may be a dancer of flamenco as well. Just by listening to the music, it's impossible to tell he is a non-Spaniard.

The guitar is a Devoe Negra. Good player.

Yes good player. Nice video.[;)]



Jasmine_27 -> RE: Japanese Guitarists (Dec. 16 2007 8:38:42)

Ted, I totally covet his guitar! His sound is so amazing! If I get on Lester's waiting list now, maybe my guitar will arrive in 10-15 years - and by that time, I may be finally ready to do it justice!



Jasmine_27 -> RE: Japanese Guitarists (Dec. 16 2007 8:41:25)

Could it be Jose Takeda? He lived in Sevilla and has been working in Southern California for the past 15 years or so. He has a web site, and is a very powerful player. He's also got some You Tube technique videos that are really useful. Cheers!

No, I don't think it's the same person. Here is a picture of Taketo. Taketo was born in Hyogo, Japan and has been living in Sevilla since 1980. I copied the introduction of the Cd as below:

Nacido en 1954 en Hyogo, Japon, vive desde 1980 en Sevilla, donde empezo a tocar la guitarra en la Academia de Manolo Marin. Ha sido guitarrista de la antigua y conocidisima "La Trocha". Despues de numerosas giras por toda Espana y de como el dice, "muchas juergas" fue guitarrista de RNE en el programa "El Silverio". En la actualidid realiza frecuentes giras por su pais de origen y este es su primer trabajo discografico.

Sorry, here is the pic.

Are there any samples? I would be happy to listen to his playing. I guess he plays traditional style. The name "aire puro" is courageous. But ok. Interesting anyway.



Mark2 -> RE: Japanese Guitarists (Dec. 18 2007 8:09:13)

Very nice playing. Thanks for the link!



Jasmine_27 -> RE: Japanese Guitarists (Dec. 18 2007 11:51:48)

You're right - Taketo is a bit younger, I think.

I don't know if Jin Oki has some samples or not. He's done 3 CDs so far, including a collaboration with a great Japanese cantaor. Maybe if you check his web site you can find some riffs!



frhout -> RE: Japanese Guitarists (Dec. 19 2007 2:22:58)

How about a Tango? Please go to Audio/Video upload for sample.

I believe your thinking of Jose Tanaka.

This was certainly among the best I've ever listened to. I ripped the mp3 from YouTube and it's been on my loop since last night. Great stuff. Massive bass, by the way -- I'm positive that it can't be all due to the guitar. Surely the sound projection was tweaked.



guitardode -> RE: Japanese Guitarists (Jan. 11 2008 4:56:10)

great playing ,a real feel and attitude for the music very refreshing
