I've been eyeing a cheap blanca with friction pegs, wondering if this would be a worthy candidate for my taste. Still confused whether I should go for it or not.
ive played one, it was fine. I'd never pay $1,000 for it but if your getting some sort of deal it might be fine. Most I'd pay for it is $600 range, for $1,000 you can do better.
Depending where you are, you could either get a Francisco Navarro Student guitar with pegs for under $1k, or if you are in Europe there is a Valeriano Bernal €850 or so.
Both of those guitars would be my preferential options above the Cordoba 45FP.
In the realm of $1000, the Francisco/Marlon Navarro Student Blanca is the way to go. It was my first flamenco, with pegs and a French polish finish -$50 extra but worth it. A true dry and raspy flamenco voice....I really enjoyed it. Plus you are supporting a skilled family business, Not a multinational corporation ( Córdoba, etc )
