I'll give it a shot ;P Lovok 16:42, 12 July 2006 (UTC) When I get home, I'll probably try and mirror the classical guitar page for the flamenco, but only what needs changing. I'll also poke around the 'net see if I can find more technical information than just me and my flamenco instructor ^^ Lovok 17:37, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Here's a picture of a flamenco guitar I'll try and upload later. http://img3.musiciansfriend.com/dbase/pics/products/4/2/7/269427.jpg Lovok 11:08, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Music Sample?

Can someone post a sample of the Flamenco Guitar music? Anything without vocals is fine. It would go great with this article. --AOL Alex 16:11, 21 December 2006 (UTC)


Yes, I can contribute some images and sound files of flamenco guitars. I'm a flamenco guitar luthier and was also wondering if an external link to my site (flamencoguitarmaker.com) may also enhance this page ? Guitarrero 18:30, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

It seems to me that your site is basically for a business that you run that sells custom-made guitars, am I correct? If so, then I don't think it'd be a good idea; the external link guidelines caution against linking to "sites that primarily exist to sell products or services.". If the site is for some other purpose that I wasn't able to find, feel free to correct me. Veinor (talk to me) 18:33, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] How Cavalier

"Those outside the Flamenco community often use it to mean vaguely Spanish-sounding guitar playing which utilises some of the techniques listed below, especially rasgueado. To gain some understanding of the stricter definition of flamenco, read the main article."


To me this sounds kinda cavalier (in simpler terms "douchey") —Preceding unsigned comment added by VegSXEBassist (talkcontribs) 22:48, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

Not sure I understand your comment. Are you saying it sounds elitist? I wrote that, and I regard myself as being outside the Flamenco community; it's based on what I picked up from the Internet (which admittedly is not always a good source). I'll alter it so that it says "In English-speaking countries..."
