GK Studio : Love my first flamenco guitar very much!

4 years ago

Thanks to my teacher I ordered this guitar a while ago. And I am in complete love with it. There are some small things which I can say would serve it to become perfect, but I think for this price it already is! Stock strings are not so good, 4th tore after < than a month of playing, but obviously, that's why they called "stock" and actually before that I was playing in metal strings so maybe I hit a bit harder than average. Golpeador could be a bit wider, several times I hit the deck with my ring finger, anyways, can change it If I want to. The main thing which confused me is I've read on the internet that strings action should be about 2-2.5 mm 1st string on 12th fret, 2.5 - 3 6th string on 12th fret. In my case, it is 3 and 4 accordingly. Notice that the anchor rod is turned to max (min strings height). Don't know what's the average but it has about 3-4 turns range on this guitar, feels like I have much more on my Fender CD-60 which is obviously cause it is a bigger acoustic guitar. Anyway, not a big deal as I think it is subject to change, I could grind off the nut a bit, but will see whether I need it with the new Luthier strings when I put them on. Please correct me if I am mistaken. Didn't yet try to record line sound, but I am sure it will be lovely as I can hear how it sounds in reality and read the other comments, seems all should be fine.

Overall, the guitar is just great, and I can recommend buying this guitar cause it seems fantastic from my perspective! I am a newbie in guitars topic but my teacher is a great flamenco guitarist and he confirmed it sounds great to him after hearing my first rec with the stock strings.
