For me the flamenco guitar is basically the same as a concert guitar, but I strive for a couple of differences:
- quick attack, fast decay
- lower action
- lighter bridge
- lower height from top to string at bridge
- edgier more aggressive sound
- drier sound
- a lighter guitar, especially the neck and head
Here are a few pictures when I was building No. 30.
