With the musical background that you described, are you familiar with Ben Woods' "Flametal" fusion of heavy metal tunes played using flamenco guitar and flamenco techniques? He has a lot youtube videos, as well as at least one book of his arrangements, and also has a signature guitar made by Ortega guitars.
Oh yeah, I've been watching Ben's stuff for years. Love it! In fact, I met Ben when he and Tim from Cordoba came to Music Villa for a performance and workshop year and a half ago. The wife and I drove over just to see Ben. I started watching his videos because of his metal covers (I especislly like his version of Megadeath's "Holy Wars" and a bunch of his Iron Maiden stuff), but his flamenco stuff has become quite good and is getting quite authentic.
