I just don’t get it. It seems like almost every guitar in Spanish flamenco videos and Onda Jerez broadcast are Conde’s. And I’m not talking about just a few; I’m talking almost every single guitar! On Onda Jerez today, I saw one rare non-Conde. So what’s the story? It seems like all I ever hear is Conde bashings. No one seems to like them, yet….. Like I said, I just don’t get it. And not only do you see Conde’s used almost exclusively, IMO they ALL seem to sound pretty darn good. Most all seem to have that great Spanish “nasal” tone. The Conde that Paco Cepero played today on Onda Jerez was the best I have ever heard. Now granted, that may have been him playing it, but it did sound pretty amazing. I know, I’ve heard it all. All of the good ones are held for top performers. The bad ones are sent out of the country, on and on and on. All of this may be true, but the simple fact remains, you see these things everywhere. I guess this is more of a statement then a question. Just venting I guess.
