Yes, it will be very hard on a steel-string guitar. Rasgueados like these are generally meant for nylon-string guitars. Steel-strings will wear away at your fingernails. If you do this on a steel-string, I recommend playing very lightly. You can also put acrylics on your fingernails although I don’t generally recommend this.
Hi! Great question! Each rasgueado produces a different sound. They also have different functions at faster tempos. p-am-p always produces a clearly defined rhythm at fast tempos. p-c-i is less defined at fast tempos and produces more of a continuous rasgueado raking effect. At slow tempos where the rhythm is defined for both, the choice comes down to sound preference.
Thank you, Diego! How do you get that independence of the C finger to flick it out by itself? It's hard to tell, but it doesn't look like you're holding the other fingers up against your thumb.
Hi Andra! Thanks for commenting! Here as well, you do not want to Spring off against your thumb. The C finger should extend from the air. I recommend practicing the C finger in isolation at various tempos. Just remember to stay very loose.
Hi Diego, a couple of things - 1. When u flick the c finger, does your m and a finger stay in place along with the I finger? 2. If not, does the m and a finger also hit the strings on their way down along with the c finger ? 3. Is it important for the I and Thumb to be glued together just before the index goes down or is it fine if both are not touching ?
Hi! At first it might be challenging to separate the fingers but with practice you will be able to keep them independent. So when each finger extends, the next finger should remain up in preparation for its own extension. P and I can certainly touch but make sure not to apply pressure to P with I unless you plan on accenting your chord with I. Also, remember to stay light and loose. This will help a lot! I hope this helps!
@@amartyab4u21 No, each finger should be independent and hit the strings separately unless you deliberately choose to combine fingers. For example, the order can be P - C - I (separately), P - A - I (separately), or P - CA - I (where C & A function as if they were one finger).

this is what I call perfect teaching, thanks a million Diego
Great video.
Perfect lesson, as usual! Thank You!
thanks..nice teacher!1
Is it supposed to be way harder on steel string medium gauge on a dreadnought? I can't get it consistently no matter how hard i try....

I have a question.
Why learn the p-c-i triplet rasgueados, if you already learnt the p-am-p version?
Hi! Great question! Each rasgueado produces a different sound.

Thank you mister.
To me, PCI sounds more lyrical, PAMP is faster. I like to mix them both.

@@DiegoAlonsoMusic okay but what about m and a ? Do they hit the strings with the c finger ?
