Hi Jared! Thanks for you comment and question. It is a little bit hard to answer, because I started playing guitar way before I started using these particular practice tools, and to some degree don't remember exactly.For your reference, at the time I made this video I'd already been playing Flamenco for about 25 years, and had been using the suggestions in this video for about 14 or 15 of those years. I'd say within 2 years of starting to use these tools, my speed was pretty well established. That said I was able to play fairly fast before this, but less stable/consistent and less comfortable. Not sure if you're curious to partly to extrapolate how long it might take you, but in case you are curious, I'd say there are tons of variables, such as how much one practices, and many others (like in my case I was not initially a very fast player, as some people are, which is one reason I"m a fan of these tools. They helped me a lot!), but I'd say working patiently and very consistently (4 to 6 days per week) with these tools 2-3 years is a reasonable estimate to at least be very well on the way to fluid, clear and fast picado. THa said everyone really is different. I've been playing for over 30 years now and I still use these same tools.

That makes sense and gives me hope. I've played guitar for 37 years. I've studied classical guitar through my teen years and college with instructors. I played about 2-5 hours a day, but got frustrated as I had a speed limit. My guitar teacher was fast and tried to help. Out of frustration, I switched to electric guitar with a pick & did the neo-classical Yngwie thing. But now I'm back to playing nylon string guitars and wanting to play fast again. So, this helps. I think that I'd work on picado w/ rest strokes for about 3-4 weeks and give up. So, if it takes me 2-3+ years to play picado fast I'm fine with that...Thank you for your detailed answer.

Ha, nice! Thank you🙌🙌

Thanks for your comment, Ali. I’m glad you’ve found the videos to be helpful!

Thanks so much for your question. Yes, absolutely the book has all musical examples in tablature as well as standard notation, plus an audio CD with recordings of every lesson and piece of repertoire. Thanks and I hope this helps!
