[AaronGilmartin]

Thank you to the HomespunTapes folks for all your work.

[wasupthere]

That was BRILLIANT. SO clear , well explained. THANKS

[kira32091]

why not just barre the c# while you're already doing you're little "baby barre" lol makes the same a major with less hassle dude

[Shibzzeg]

"Play it, mkay?" LOL

[ozzydabigpapa]

isnt that a classical guitar?

[IronPump89]

yeah okay fine, but... there is no mode that contains these two chords. I mean, it is not any chord progression of the phrygian as I supposed it would be....

[HillbillyJ]

Sorry for my ignorance, but can anyone tell me if flemenco use nylon string guitars or steel string?

[97LuckyStrike]

@HillbillyJ bith, ususally they use nylon guitar, but steel is good too

[HillbillyJ]

@97LuckyStrike Thanks!

[DarkSpringPoet]

It isn't B5 Dummy. It's Bb5.

Hi Aaron, thanks for posting. You a great teacher and wonderful player.

[DoePoMusic]

You always sound so great, Aaron. Thank you for putting these great lessons up on the web!

[TheEarlOfDublin]

you probably shouldnt just call that b chord "major" it has a b5

[CarcharodonMusic]

@TheEarlOfDublin - the E is a suspension from the A major. The actual chord is Bb, D, F. You can still call it major, although many chords in flamenco don't have the same harmonic function that they would have in common-practice western music.

[MMAwannabe666]

[cesarkohl]

nice lesson. i learned it :)

[newtekken]

thanks for showing this "open string" trick of the flamenco music. It is so simple and make stuff sound like flamenco. Actually, I discovered this trick by ear only for the F major chord.

Any speculation about the facination with cat gut strings by Chet Atkins and Jerry Reed?
