    Dude, you are unreasonably gifted at guitar. I am very excited to be learning flamenco, and I really appreciate your teaching style. You explain everything very clearly and patiently. Thanks so much, it's largely because of you that I'm getting so good so quickly. You are totally awesome. Thanks for everything.

      But classical music on classical guitar also has the Apoiado technique, which are rest strokes.

    @mofoshrimp 7 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Probably the most important general rule with picado is to always alternate which finger starts the scale, so that both I and M have independence and strength. Play a scale starting with I, and then play the same scale starting with M. You can only go as fast as your weakest finger...

    Cool video! Don't forget that there is not one exact "correct" shape to play picado. Though the general approach is similar, everyone's hand is different, and in the end everyone finds their own particular form. I have seen very advanced players do picado, some with fingers held almost entirely straight at every joint (Kilino Jimenez for example), while others have a much more curved shape wth each finger joint flexing a bit, like Paco de Lucia who greatly bends the first joint down from the knuckle. Start slowly, and gradually let your hand find the shape which it is comfortable with.

    Good work, man. I'm always trying to borrow from you flamenco guys to apply to bass! Flamenco players seem to have some of the fastest picado/pizzicato ability I've seen. As bassists, we're generally not too fond of playing with our nails, so I don't know how much of a factor that is, but I'm definitely still working on increasing prolonged speed with 2 fingers on the right hand, even after 20 years. Thanks!

    @ubershredder1989 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    HI. My picado is pretty developed for the beginner-intermediate level. However, it seems I hit a plateau in my development, and I don't think it has to do with my right hand. I get a feeling my left hand is the culprit here and is not syncing with the right hand properly. Both of my hands are quite fast and accurate, however I can't seem to get that crisp and uniform sound when playing scales at a higher tempo. My question is specifically about *prepared playing* and *continuous contact*.
    We know that in picado one must play staccato in a 'walking' type fashion, in order to prepare the finger for the next stroke. I was wondering if the similar principles apply to the fretting hand, if there are any.
    So far what I have been doing for ascending passages:
    The notes in brackets are planted by the left hand simultaneously. So after I play the 7th fret on E string, I plant the pinky on the 8th string and at the same time, my index finger relocates from 5th fret on E string, to the 5th fret on the A string. After the 8th fret is plucked on the E string, the index finger is already planted on the next consecutive note, 5th fret on A string, making the string-switching transition sound smooth.
    D----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------(5)------------7---
    A---------------------------------------------------------(5)--------------7----------------(8)-----------------------------
    E-------------5-------------7-------------(8)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    I have been doing similar with descending passages although it feels a little more tricky:
    D---------9-------------7--------------(5)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    A---------------------------------------------------(8)------------7-----------(5)----------------------------------------
    E------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------(8)-----------7-----------5----
    Is this a correct way to practice? Could you give me some advice or pinpoint me to some literature regarding this subject matter?
    Thanks ;)
