  • Hi!

    Self-learner here…

    I have a technical question I hope you will be kind enough to answer.

    Lets say you are playing a fast scale melody in the first position on the guitar neck ala Panaderos. Loosely speaking, each string will have approx. 2 notes which will need to be fretted and one open string.

    I find that the when I have to play the open string, the guitar neck flies out of the hand, because there is no fretting pressure, countering the force from the right arm. What I try to do is to use 'left hand finger preparation' as much as possible (even if that anticipated note is only in the next bar) so that there is always a fretting pressure on the fret-board, but i find that this can hinder left hand mobility and generally looks awkward if overdone..

    I may be mistaken (please correct me if I am), but it seems in Panaderos , Paco is NOT using the strict classical left hand posture, but rather what appears to be a blues guitar posture, where part of the left hand is glued to the bottom of the guitar neck (around the Index metacarpal area), which I presume is to provide stability for playing open strings…

    Any input would be much appreciated. Thank you.

  • Hello how are you?
    And I am interested in buying your video lesson but I wonder if just seeing what you are doing I will buy because I understand very little English is in doubt if I will take advantage.

    If you can answer me, I appreciate it.

  • Sure, the later material in that 2-hr lesson are more involved, but not as bad as it seems. Keep in mind that we offer a series of beginner-Advanced beginner lessons that are prerequisites to this Picado Studies (Flamenco Beginner Pack 1 & 2, Flamenco Guitar Techniques 1 & 2, and Rasgueado Package). Without having gone through those lessons or equivalent of them it would be difficult to dive into this Picado Studies.

    Wishing you the best!

  • Well, I could probably get through the first two minutes of this video. That last thirty seconds though. That would take some serious woodshedding.

  • I think, I would need to go with beginner beginner. With a pick, I might be able to do this but I doubt I could pull it off with fingers at this point. Still, looks like a great lesson package.
