Flamenco guitar

Example of a cedar top flamenco guitar with traditional tap plates/golpeadores installed

A flamenco guitar is a guitar similar to a classical guitar, but with thinner tops and less internal bracing. It usually has nylon strings, like the classical guitar, but it generally possesses a livelier, more gritty sound compared to the classical guitar.[1] It is used in toque, the guitar-playing part of the art of flamenco.
