The Ramirez FL2 flamenco blanca is a traditional Flamenco Blanca model, built to provide brilliant, percussive and loud rhythms at brisk tempos. This model, and its new replacement the Estudio Flamenco are the only ‘Student’ Flamenco guitars offered by Ramirez. Flamenco is now very professional and formalized, but at its roots a folk style combining highly expressive, rhythmic percussion and melody using voice, dance, hand claps, finger snaps and guitars.

Pedro de Miguel Flamenco Negra Guitar, 2005

On September 9, 2019 /

Here we have a Pedro de Miguel Flamenco Negra guitar, built in Madrid during 2005. The key difference between Flamenco Negra and Classical guitars, aside from the use of Rosewood instead of Cypress for the back and sides – is largely geometry. The neck set on a Flamenco guitar is a bit higher, allowing for low action and the attendant rattle that’s part of the Flamenco sound. Flamenco Negra guitars are becoming more common and often found in the ‘World Music’ context.
