Over the last few years I have been developing refining the design and structure of my flamenco guitars to try and capture the true essence and soul of Flamnco - particularly what would be described as the 'flamenco sound'. These guitars are very lightly built, my latest weighing little more than 1kg and are braced and thicknessed to give the characteristic percussive response much sought after by flamenco musicians. The action is very low, both along the fingerboard and also above the soundboard to the bridge. I am very grateful to Richard Ogilby of California for much helpful advice and guidance towards making what may be considered a true flamenco guitar.
