Notes

Studio recording, 2019 (from the album 'Utopia'). Bachata solos are almost always tracked direct with piezo-equipped nylon-string electro-acoustics. No evidence of electric guitar or traditional amp. Live performances may use similar gear but this profile is for the studio solo section only.

Difficulty

The solo requires intermediate fingerstyle technique, fast melodic phrasing, and expressive dynamics typical of bachata lead guitar, but does not involve advanced electric guitar techniques or extreme technical demands.
