Yeah, the songs they used just weren’t very representative of the genres as a whole a lot of the time. Especially bluegrass. Bluegrass guitar is one of the hardest styles to play due to the immense speed and intricate movements required. Blues needs to be ranked a lot lower, since homespun blues music can be easily improvised around one or two chords. Easiest way to learn blues music is just to pick an E or an A chord and pick the notes around it

[@vic1ous511]

[@JackKirbyFan]

@@coltengibson1102Well, I have to admit it wasn't a straight forward path. I think it's different for everyone. But for me, I picked up guitar and got an instructor right away to play like Paul Simon. I worked really hard at it and started to not like it. I loved hearing it but the playing wasn't what I wanted. The sound was off - if that makes sense. My instructor then suggested electric. Try that. I did. Changed my life. The more I played it the more I got interested in it. Plus. he's into music theory so as I learned that, I really began to appreciate music. Then one day he played a jazz chord for fun. I said to him. 'what is that sound?" He said - Jazz. It blew me away. So, I told him, teach me jazz and it went from there. It took me about a year of just doing jazz to get somewhat comfortable with it. It just takes a ton of time and practice but you do get there. But, I'm also old. Depending on age, it will go quick. Feel free to ask additional questions and I hope I was able to answer yours. If not, I'm happy to take another shot at it. So, to summarize 1) get an instructor - who knows music theory and jazz 2) get an electric 3) work hard every day.

[@pepincuatro2865]

If you take into account the broad meaning of technique (harmony, improvisation, etc) then yes they can be equally hard. But like I've said, when it comes to finger technique, nothing comes close to flamenco. And when I say nothing comes close, I don't just mean other guitar styles, I mean any other instrument or skill that you can teach your fingers for that matter. Try to play a Spanish guitar with your fingers instead of a pick. Now watch a video of Paco de Lucía playing "La Barrosa" for instance. Now you understand what I mean. @@growskull

[@Ternovnyk]

@@pepincuatro2865 So you have seen only flexing Jazzmens in bend, where they play with the help of other instruments. What about solo jazz guitarists, like Lucas Brar? He plays for all instruments, walking bass for contrbass, melody for lead guitar, rhythm and chord changes for rhythm guitar and even more, like fast arpegios and harmonics from classical guitar

[@pepincuatro2865]

I've seen plenty of solo jazz guitar performances, even learned some of Joe Pass's and Barry Galbraith chord melodies myself. Also Lucas Brar is an accomplished classical guitarist. All of that is extremely difficult stuff, but my point is clear: flamenco finger technique is unmatched. Exhibit A: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2rZf4Z3ZbyBotk If you've never played a Spanish guitar using your fingers and you don't quite get how extremely impossible to play this is, I quote you arguably the best jazz guitarist alive, Pat Metheny, refering to Vicente Amigo (arguably the best flamenco guitarist alive) in an interview: "he's the best guitarist in the world". Picking technique can be hard, but fingerstyle will always be harder by nature. And among all the fingerstyles, flamenco is unmistakably the hardest due to the sheer number of right hand techniques, the precision in tempo required, and the fact that the Spanish guitar, with all of its beauty, is an ancient instrument with limitations. @@Ternovnyk

Some things are harder to play than the "best guitar songs" from each category. "Ring of Fire" is by no means the hardest guitar song in country music to play. Even Cash himself had some more impressive guitar work in songs like "Folsom Prison Blues" and "Wreck of Old 97." If you want more advanced stuff than that, "Working Man Blues" by Merle Haggard or "Lonesome Ornery and Mean" by Waylon Jennings are good examples of hard, serious country guitar music.
