My very first guitar was a wide-necked behemoth with thick nylon strings. I got it for five bucks at a yard sale, because I wanted to be John Denver. Those strings ripped my fingers to bloody shreds, and I could never seem to do bar-chords because the neck was so much wider than my hand-span.

I later learned that to play Flamenco guitar (such as in this song) takes incredible talent, more-than-the-usual callouses on the fingertips, and the manual dexterity of a super-species.  No wonder I almost gave up guitar before I even started.

Which is why I completely love this song. Yeah, the guy looks like Orlando Bloom, but I bet Bloom can't make a classical, nylon-stringed guitar sound like this. I bow down. Incredible, awesome talent here. {#Notworthy}
 
Miss you so much, Cynaera...  this music is cool...

Or a quasi-comedy about a Mexican assassin starring Antonio Banderas, Salma Hayek, Penelope Cruz, and Johnny Depp.

Edit:  Cynaera comment 6 spots below.  Insightful and warmly amusing, like most of them were.

I've never been so embarrassed about laughing my head off at a comment.  Racist?  Kinda.  Accurate?  Very.

Actually, seems that he was 16 at the time the album was recorded.

I know what you mean but you shouldn't feel that way.  All guitars can be functional.

I thought this was Paco de Lucia to begin with... nice, although speed alone doesn't do it, the artistry lies in timing and hesitation (Jeff Beck is a master at that) but I'll certainly be looking out for more of Sinti (and Jimmy R)
