Question

Help answer this question below.

Guitar Help: I need a "pickguard" or "golpader" for my classical guitar for playing flamenco, where I am "tapping" on the side of the guitar. However all I can find are for acoustic gutars or electric, and not for classical.

    Golpeadors are unique to flamenco guitars- as you said, they are protecting the top of the guitar when tapping on it. Classical guitars aren't found with them. There are a few things that set one type apart from the other (mostly having to do with dimensions and wood choices) that give each type of guitar its different voice. The classical style of play doesn't go in for the rhythmic hand tapping.

    Here's a site where you can order one: http://www.fernandezmusic.com/Flamenco%20tap%20plates.html
