At that last piece with the finger snap. I looked at my guitar. My guitar said “no”.
Lol...😂
C'mon D-vo B, these are BASIC techniques hahahahah
im sitting here stunned into silence... yeah uh 😭
basic techniques :)))))))))))))
cant wait to see the advanced edition............
richat1 hahaha right!?
LMFAOOO
Awesome ha ha
richat1 😅 the comments on this video are so good and true, mostly..
Wait what....
When I first watched this video 3 years ago. I was like "no way this is impossible". But today and after alot of practice, I know for a fact that it is impossible.
Bro 😭
Seems like you didnt practice at all for three years.
@@ydyd4410 seems like you don't understand jokes
@@nourghazal296 i understand jokes. Maybe instead of making jokes u should practice.
@@ydyd4410 Maybe you should shut the fuck up cause it is non of your business
When is the version for humans coming out?

hahaha I laughed out so loud, my gf came downstairs to see if I'm all right
This man very talented he gived me Inspiration to sell my guitar❤️
Lmao
damn 😂
Hahahaha
😬
😂
I love how he keeps on saying “basically just” and “a little”
As a classical guitarist I can say what looks impossibly hard can become easier and acchived with correct practice and dedication never give up and start with simpler things .... you cant play at such high level in 3 or 4 years it takes a lot of time
you're a sic puppy.
Yeah it's hard but you get better with dedication and hardwork
"dedication and never give up" well.. dude that's the hardest part !
@@beaconing7689 no ac also
You can get pretty good in four years though, so believe in yourself and stay dedicated. But also be aware that the people you look up to have probably been playing 10+ years
How many goats do i need to sacrifice is my first question
I bet China saw this video and they knew goat isn't the apt sacrifice
nope, you gotta go the the crossroads..

Ok, I will go back to strumming the chord C now.
I'm gonna go back to the e minor chord personally
I am gonna go pick open strings
Boxer in the house lmaooooo
Oh yea, back to smoke on the water with one string.
i´m gonna play the first 2 bars of "nothing elses matters"
4:17 the only thing that i can do

HAHAHA
Yeah. I can do with both hands 😅
aaaaaauisahdiuhiaushduiashudihaud :D
By the time I learn all this , my hair gonna grow as long as his.
Well, the back and sides, anyway.
And there's gonna be a few grey hairs among them, in my estimates.

For anyone wondering, Ben passed away in September (i believe), 2022. He was battling with some sort of cancer and sadly lost

I’m saving this vid for two reasons:
1. To remind me of the complexity of the human brain regarding brain/hand coordination/communication.
2. To have a good lough with the comments posted here by certain “mortal” viewers...
You know flam really is one of the most difficult techniques but it will freaking enhance any other style you might use or learn simply by knowing and being able to do even just the most basic tune. Don't be a pussy, step yourself up. I was push to do this at 13 and I sucked but when I finally got one song sounding half way decent with no mistakes it rocketed my freestyle and chord playing and especially riff playing. Now after 40 years of forgotten lessons, I have returned to learning and the thing I remember most are the flam. Well that and bloody fingertips. Lol.
Well yeah, everyone needs a good lough now and then.
@@ismaelharun2723 Thats True. You can be a half god with trying for hours and Just with tutorials and good lessons.
Saaaame lmao 😂❤️
having a lough, strake and ploying same time
This video is the reason why I started getting interested in flamenco. RIP Ben. Thank you for the present.
me: looks at guitar
guitar: looks back at me(breathing intensifies)
Please do not get discouraged, anyone can do this if you practice slowly, are focused and determined. Good luck everybody. -Ben Woods
***** Will do. I've been playing the nylon string for a few years now, and added flamenco techiques too. Altogether, I've played about for 35 years, mostly with a pick / combination of pick and fingers, so it was a tremendous effort to start playing only with fingers / nails. But I think I'm over the hard, beginning parts. Finally can consider moving on to making music too, with incorporating flamenco techniques. Thank you again. :-)
+Ben Woods K. :-)
+Ben Woods Thank you very much ben,I've practiced these techniques and got much much better, but can we get the tabs of it? especially the last piece
Thanks.
im discouraged as fuck
+Maya Ash LMA!! I've bean playing guitar for years but am just starting to learn this style. I keep reminding myself of how hard playing at all was when I first picked it up. It was NOT easy, and took time. Looks like Im starting over. (This shit is crazy though)
Thank you for this video, now I'm gonna go sell my guitar
but you're The Great Thanos...
It aint easy playing guitar with 1 functional arm
I know its been a year but god damn this one made me laugh
I guess you would sell the half of your guitar.
The another half of the instrument would be played by your one functional arm.
I just hacked all over my tablet. Classic comment. Thanks
This is a great video that gives a basic demo of all the flamenco and dare I say acoustic techniques you'll ever need. He goes pretty fast but don't be scared of learning them. Once you know the names of the techniques you can google them and find slower versions to help you learn. The important part is to practice as SLOW AS POSSIBLE EVERY SINGLE DAY. And just when you think you have improved and it's easy instead of increasing the bmps like most ppl will tell you to do, do the opposite, slow it down. Slow it all down. Keep aiming for slower, more controlled, more efficient. Speed will come naturally later. Essentially we are manipulating muscle memory to create a sort of "reflex", once you get it it's not something you consciously think about as you play but something you just feel and go forward with, this is what he talks about near the end of the video when he says "put it all together". Took me 2 years of slow disciplined, 20mins a day practicing to achieve all this. Good luck folks, don't give up! Great vid Cordoba Guitars!
When you say slow, then slow it all down, could you give that in bpm as for some starting reference, like 60 -> 30 or even
RIP Ben Woods......"I miss you brother, your music will live on forever" I miss you....Never forget about you!! God Bless you..Amen!!!

Seriously. Laughing my ass off at each comment
My attempt at any of these basic techniques is also a legendary joke book.

Advanced lesson:
Alright, what you're gonna want to do is take out your third hand and brush only the bottom side of the strings at a tempo of exactly 355 bpm. This shouldn't be audible and only ads texture to the wood while playing.

Thank you to all commentators. I haven't had such a good laugh in a long time. Just humorous reality checkers here Ben. You're a great player. Thank you for this great tutorial.
Ben Woods here, please let me chime in everybody. To all the people that complain that this is not 'basic' or that I'm showing off... I'm not showing off, I'm simply showing - I'm sharing my knowledge. As the title says; "Basic Flamenco Techniques". Not beginning techniques, not easy-beginner techniques. These are the basic building blocks of Flamenco guitar playing... the common techniques involved in Flamenco guitar playing. Before you can play Flamenco, you need to have a mastery of these. Flamenco is a language and these techniques are like words you need to form ideas. Yes they are difficult, Flamenco itself is extremely hard. Practice slowly. And to those of you that say I'm going through it too fast? Rewind and play again as needed, its a video. Also now youtube has the option to slow down this video (hit the gear icon). I hope this helps with your frustration. -Ben Woods
Hi Ben what make and tension are those strings? Many thanks for your wonderful film.... Jonathan
I'd agree with you Ben, these are the basic building blocks of flamenco and after twenty years I still struggle but I try :)
Dude, it was really helpful! Thanks!
thanks Ben. I love your style..
Awesome video, thanks for sharing, fuck the haters
Wanted to learn flamenco styled playing. After watching this, I think it's safe to say
I'll be going back and sticking to my twinkle twinkle little star songs.
Hey, Mozart wrote that one... so if you think about it, you already nailed the classical era🤣
wooow finally after 20 yrs i found a Flamenco teacher (i play Jazz Fusion/Funk/RnB)
(no need to go to live in Spain in Andalusia 4 a couple of yrs) 🏯🏯🏯
it's amazing what flamenco playas are able to do with just a guitar 💪🔥💪
RIP Ben Woods, he was so amazing 🙏
Ben is right these are all the techniques needed. All you have to do to get as good as Ben is, practice 18 hours a day for the next 87945 years. It's almost too easy.
Work while you work; play while you play, Apex Window Cleaning Services :-D
I've taught a lot of people. From my experience I'd say all you really need for mastery is one or two hours a week and between 7 and 15 years depending on your mind (eg age, have you learned another instrument etc). The times passing anyway. You might as well.
You'll find after the first 2-3 years the practise gets a lot easier. It's much more fun when you can do a little.
Ha Ha Ha!
@@AmbeamTM 15 years ?!? .... nobody is that patient, sorry ^^ ... I got my picado going like Ben after quite a few hours of practice over a weekend on a single string, after a couple of weekends across strings and after a couple of months I solidified the muscle memory, so that I didn't need to warm up my fingers for minutes to get the speed... I think that everything is about the appropriate choice of practice... My thumb work is quite poor, because I never made the effort to find the best practice routines for me... But I'm sure, it be doable in less than 7 to 15 years^^, if I truly put my mind to it.
@@parityviolation968 yeah! To be clear youll be pretty good after only a couple of years, less if you put the time into practise. But we're talking about mastery rather than competency.
People often take this tack for some reason. The idea you need to be patient to wait 10 years is flawed. Just dont stop playing. The time will take care of itself. And after it has I put money on your thumb work being excellent.
Im all for distracted practise. Its what adverts are for.
These techniques seem to be pretty easy to do, what i'm having trouble is with the F chord.
Karl Abid You made my day 😂
Funny :-)
Same here
did you ever learned to play the F chord? lol
@@GabrielAlfaroCossiowhere is the F cord?
feels like you had a friend at school who was good at something and you wanted to get taught, and he said "oh it's so easy, just do it like this"

I am an experienced guitarist. I started as a kid with simple acoustic stuff and then moved on in my teens to the typical rock and metal. I went on to classical guitar because I loved the style and music. I mention all of this to demonstrate I have a good background in the instrument. So when I say this is without a doubt the best video I have ever seen in regards to the basics of the flamenco style I want it to be taken in the context of my past experience.
Don't get me wrong I am not a professional musician, but honestly this is one of the best videos I have seen on flamenco technique and I don't understand why so many people find it confusing. Maybe they are new or they are unwilling to practice as this instruction is simple to follow. I have really gotten into flamenco during the lockdown and this video has helped me to understand the technique in a way that few other videos have managed.
Thank you to the man in the video.
Thanks this was the motivation I needed to go back to studying
help!
i started following your instructions by playing alongside this video
now my guitar is on fire

my nose is bleeding by imagining the advanced
To every person complaining about the difficulty: If your're not willing to put in the practice, that's your problem. Learning an instrument is difficult. If your're not willing to be diligent with your practice, then maybe it's not for you.
You my brother, are brilliant. A true virtuoso! The world lost a great, beautiful mind and a brilliant virtuoso when we lost you. I am in total awe and respect brother, respect always and forever

Ben's playing. I've been wanting to learn some
flamenco techniques for quite awhile. Now I
just need to get some acrylic nails.
wow ! I have a flamenco guitar, cant play it but it is a work of art...made in Spain, out of Sycamore of all things. Apparently it was traditional for the Gypsies (i hope that is not a racisit term, if so apologies) to use any wood they could find for the guitars and sycamore is a common species. It is blond blonde, quality every bit as good as my Martins. Love it. I did have a video years ago and learned a few licks, I remember palming it in a percussive fashion. Cant wait to learn some techniques. So sad that Ben is gone, I was lucky to have survived cancer, so sad, RIP Ben, you are missed. take care everyone.

As someone looking to get into this style of music, this is a great overview of these techniques. Thanks!
Thank you. I’m learning from scratch and am noticeably missing technique. I’m playing by ear and I’m getting good but knowing what I’m supposed to be doing is gonna take me miles. Thank you again. I’ve been looking for this kinda video for a year
me and you have different meanings of basic techniques
KRAXXI sHORTY m
xd agree
ha ha hasta ha hasta xD
He nailed the basic, dont expect to be that fast, just work on it slowly. he just displayed how it sound when mastered the basic. Many "basic" can sound advance behind a master guitarist :)
I think it's just that you can't differentiate from 'basic' and 'beginner'.
WHAT THE BASIC FUCK HELL WAS THAT!!!!
wasif ud dowlah They are the basic techniques, but that doesn't mean you can't learn to do these slow and work up to his speed.

You just crushed my hopes
of ever playing this style! I'll just sit over here and watch.

Beautiful playing! After 17 years playing guitar I've just started to learn classical & flamenco. its almost like starting afresh!
Adam Lewis I KNow! I've played for about 25 years, and then picked up flamenco and nylon string. And believe me, I felt really lame at first, but was determined to go on and progress. Now I'm already enjoying it too. :-)
+Adam Lewis hey guys! I like you guys after 25 years of writing songs using the basic first position chords, the occasional drop D, and power chords with distortion I simply got tired of myself - even playing live was becoming a bore, and I just wasn't feeling it. Bands simply cannot be relied upon, so I came here to YT to find new ways of expression. Flamenco seems very advanced with the right hand stuff but I feel like I am learning a brand new instrument with percussive techniques, and flamenco.. glad to see I am not the only one!
Oh, and I don't know how I ever got on without a loop pedal before - that thing is life changing!
That's what I had with playing with plectrum lelz

Отличная техника! Получил огромное удовольствие от просмотра, спасибо! Руки сразу потянулись к гитаре.
I'm so glad I came to the comment section, I was wondering if anyone else was having trouble following along.
I'm a bass player and this clip makes me want to look for a nylon string guitar. I'm almost 60 and I wish youtube had been around when I was younger.
I would make you younger if I could my friend!! Im 22!
your musician inside of you keeps you young. do it!!
MusingsofaJay You right, age dont matter!
I'm a bass player as well and playing a nylon guitar is really comfortable
gimmeagig You have many transferable skills and a lot of experience with a guitar anyways, the transition will only require some work in some of the techniques and for you to practice it.
When Ben Woods says something is "hard" or "takes lots of practice", keep in mind those both translate to "impossible for mere mortals".
Bookmarked and will come back to this a few times....thanks!
thank you Ben ~ what a wonderful player you are, your work has paid off! thank you for inspiring!!! all best!
Man! this alone is enough to make one wants to buy a nylon guitar and learn this style! Superb job!

What a fantastic inspiration! Your skill is well polished my Flamenco friend~
What a terrific introduction from such an amazing musician. I now see why they must use nylon strings. I tried that hand wave on steel strings and about rubbed the skin off...so I think these techniques-for the most part-are specific to the type of guitar. But I will still try and learn from it. Thanks!

As an advanced guitarist in other genres, I find this style insanely difficult. Almost alien
Don't demoralise even more bro. Their spirits are already broken
@@da1315 you need to know, or at least be aware, that at any level of anything, there are nuances, and the complexity tends to the infinite. If you are aware that you can't possibly be good at everything and know everything, then you don't lie to yourself. What's demoralizing is comparing oneself with a youtuber that plays flamenco for a living. Even if you get to that level, you'll then see some djent prodigy that does some crazy stuff and you'll be demoralized. Yeahhh, you get my point
@@jag831 the last thing a ,person learning something ,wants to hear is the thing is very difficult to learn . I got your point but i was not talking about understanding level of difficulties but the art itself . I mean if you want to learn lets say how to build sky scrapers or something you won't want an engineer to say to you that dude i am an engineer and that's really difficult for me too , right?
@@da1315 Just start practicing! Flamenco is like that requires high skill and hours of practicing. As spanish i can tell you this are basic techniques, and prepare your ass for the tempo if you never work with 12 tiempos and all the palos (Alegrías,Bulerías,Fandangos,Seguiriyas,Sevillanas,Soleas,Tangos,Tientos,Rumbas...) with different tempos 2,3,4,12 / cadences and accents.
