It was my first Flamenco purchase, a brand that I was already familiar with, a shot in the dark, just to try a Flamenco. If the definition of a Flamenco is a quick attack, loud, percussive, dry, then the F7 falls a bit short - spacious, and the basses are too juicy. But if the definition is a guitar that crosses the divide between a Classical and a Flamenco, rich when played moderately, sizzling when leaned into, then the F7 does pretty well. I've played a dry Flamenco, and I'm incapable of the aggressiveness necessary to drive such a guitar.
