Pincharratas

Pincharratas, also known as "Rat Trap" in English, is a traditional Spanish finger-picking guitar style originating from Andalusia. It involves intricate plucking of individual strings to produce melodic, rhythmic patterns often used in flamenco music. The technique emphasizes precision and control, allowing musicians to create expressive, complex sounds with their fingers, typically using thumb and first three fingers. Pincharratas showcases technical skill and musicality, blending percussive and melodic elements, and is highly valued for adding richness and depth to flamenco performances.
