OMG!!!! I love this flamenco stuff!! I'm taking right to it!! I'm starting to strum like a maniac! I'll never pick up a pick again!! Flamenco is the ultimate expression of the acoustic guitar!!!!!
thank you now i know for certain how to build my muscular dexterity to achieve that good fundamental sound, brilliant tutorial, short to the point and easy.
I've decided to learn flamenco, but it's a far leap from my present style... Could someone clarify:
The thumb appears to be grounded on the E string. Is this the case? Also, is one hitting with the very tips of the nails? Should each finger hit with equal weight, as much as possible? Must the fingers bunch behind the thumb, or can they be against the palm?
I'd appreciate any help, thanks for the video, subscribed.
@Epistemofo for a lot of the techniques the thumb is planted on the low E string (and sometimes the a string) when doing picado technique on the A and low E string the thumb often rests against the body of the guitar. when you want to use all 6 strings the thumb is usually used as part of a rasgueado.
when you have the thumb planted and doing rasgueado it does slightly lift from the string at times
Flamenco is more than play in something in mixolidian mode. Have a diferentes styles named "palos" : "solea", "alegria", "Buleria","Cantes de levante","Fandango", Seguirillas" etc, with diferents "rasgueados", chords progressions, a more important, diferents changes in then accent in the diferents parts of compass.
MarMoCon, Her expalanation is exactly the same as Oscar Herrero's in his Paso a Paso vids. Also, she spells rasgueado correctly in the upper right hand corner.
I can't get my 3rd finger to come back down quick enough on the return .....BOooo !

Good lesson, but might have to disappoint you. Cause.
If you have a good feeling for flamenco , you dont need to know how to strum strings like this to play for example bulerias.
You can strum starting from the index finger. I can even make a video about it, and it would sound the same good as this.

So do you do it with your pinky? Or is that "improper technique"?

@GeneralAnonymity
Depends on what you're after. I (and most people) prefer a 3-stroke rasgueado (ami), but some use a 4-stroke rasgueado (eami).

@GeneralAnonymity - That is a separate technique whereby you use all 4 fingers.

all !
(What she does with the lower E where her thumb rests is unclear for me, too -
she uses cors where it should be free)
