Holy smokes man! I have a brain condition called Post Concussion Syndrome and I have a difficult time grasping concepts that used to be easy for me. I get to the point where I just give up. I get to the point where I don't even try. For some reason, I really feel like you are someone I can learn from. Exciting. So thorough. A thoughtful teacher.

Lots of players use both methods. Like Adam del Monte or José Tanaka. The call it a flicked rasqueado and a free stroke rasqueado. The flicked one sounds more stronger and the free stroke one lighter. But every player is different. My teacher used to say all that matters is that it sounds good.

A note on the "bent thumb" rasgueado: if you watch a lot of players do this (i think paco de lucia even does it sometimes. Check out his performance of impetu for example), you can see that sometimes they bend the thumb, and sometimes its straight. If you are learning the technique, you might find that with a straight thumb, the rasgueo will sound "thin" because you aren't hitting all the strings that you'd like. Conversely, like Sal says in the video, you might build up tension in your hand if you use the bent thumb. I have come to a point where, like other players I've seen, sometimes my thumb is bent and sometimes it is straight, and usually my thumb starts out slightly bent and becomes straight by the end of the rasgueo. I would say that its possible to develop your rasgueado using either method, and that you'll probably find that your own thumb will sometimes be bent and sometimes straight. By far the most important thing is to keep your hand relaxed for the whole rasgueado sequence.

glad that i am not bending my thumb. Saw graf martinez bending thumb, tried it but got more inclined toward juan martin method. currently I am completely following juan martin methods. well i am practicing and its good so far and my pinky is getting stronger. this video was most useful as made clear do's and dont's and has killed all the confusions, which is the biggest hurdle in learning guitar i believe. thanks a lot sir.

I'm glad you found this video helpful. I am still going to explore the bent thumb method when I can get someone to explain to me exactly how to execute the strokes without tension. I can hear the benefit - strong flamenco sound - but I need to feel comfortable doing it first. Graf Martinez has a great rasgueado sound so his method will be my first port of call to re-examine this technique. So I am not discarding the bent thumb rasgueado idea altogether. It’s on my bucket list. When I get good at it and understand it I will teach it.

@@hersoveela I am glad because somewhere this video gave me a sense that I am heading properly for rasgueado by not bending thumb ( as it was confusion as what if bending thumb is the best way) .Yes I personally like thumb bending way of rasgueado I observed the guitar virtuoso Graf Martinez doing so.well then I too tried it inspired by him. But as I am a biginner I am exploring and trying different techniques of flamenco.when I tried it without bending thumb it was easy for me and I was very comfortable with it. And talking of strength I thought it will come with practice. I too would definitely think of bent thumb rasgueado. I understand that you don't categorise techniques into right and wrong. I believe any technique that produces good sound is acceptable and can be mastered with practice provided the right way to do is known. but as a biginner I do lack patience so I got inclined towards what felt easy for me. correct me if I am wrong I hardly know things as a biginner. Also will try the suggestion of wrist position by @schbrachbolidsei. This is turning out to be a good learning process for me. Thanks a lot once again.

The "Bent Thumb" comes from Tárrega. It's more accurate at picking out the notes with the thumb but weaker.....at least at first. So, maybe some guys started with Classical and Tárrega's technique before later starting Flamenco. (Or maybe, you know, using Tárrega's was more "snooty" being Classical and not so "Common" as Flamenco.)

Those rasgados are called pinched. They are a different kind. It's not a Way of doing rasgados it's a kind of rasgado and all flamenco guitarists use it when they are in need of a percussive sounding rasgado. You could learn it if you start using it with the i finger first, a one finger rasgado. Saludos

Great lesson, thank you! Not many people recommend NOT bending the thumb, but I have an injury that will flare up if my hand is tense at all. I learned from Juan martin books, then my teacher had me bend the thumb, the after a couple months could not play st all without pain and had to take a break

It doesn't make sense to chase a particular way of playing if it's not comfortable or, in your case, if it causes pain. I am always willing to try a different way of doing something. That extra piece of knowledge or technical skill will untimately contribute to you having a unique and more personal style. But if your skill set toolbox contains a chisel which is dull or little used, the best thing IMO is to sharpen it up with practice or remove it altogether. I'm sure your playing sound and style will not suffer because you choose not to use this or that technique.

Hi, thank you for these amazing tips! I have been practicing the rasgueado now for a few weeks, and when I try to play a chord, I still hear the sound of my nails ‘scraping’ over the strings. It’s the same sound you get when you are playing with dampened strings, but then together with a chord. Do you perhaps have any tips on how to avoid that sound? Will it disappear with practice?
@phillipjordan1010

I plant my thumb right on the edge of the sound hole so I can strike the low E along with the other strings to get a fuller base sound. Sometimes your thumb slips into the sound hole is something you got to watch for
