I found this version of Walk, Don't Run on Youtube It's kind of neat and the guy shows how to do it. He's a flamenco guitarist...if I spelled flamenco right.

Definitely some "stealable" licks in that one ( provided you can catch them! ) And I "are" a pretty good speller and you spelled flamenco correctly. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, that's really something how those guys play that way. I saw somethng there about Cordoba guitars. The guitar he is playing looks to me like the Ibanez GA5TCE, which is about a $279 guitar. These days there are cheap guitars that can play quite well and sound pretty good whereas back in the 60's I worked in a music store and we would get foreign made guitars that were really bad, frets improperly spaced, bridges glued on in the wrong place, etc. But I suppose now so much is done with computer generated results that low priced instruments can be set up to play pretty well. And of course, this guy plays exceedingly well, doing remarkable things with his hands, whether that's the guitar I'm guessing it to be or not.
