Oriental Music on a Spanish Guitar
Composed by me. I love oriental music (especially Turkish) and here I tried to make the guitar sound not like a guitar. As a plectrum I used a simple ruler. It is much bigger and longer and when the strings oscillate they catch the ruler (if it's not too far), thus creating that ringing and just making the sound louder and more distinct. Also, as you might notice, I played two Bs at the same time (second string open fret and third string fourth fret), it helps to produce that prolonged sound. And, finally, I pulled first string off the fretboard on some frets, which makes that zing but it is hard because you must be careful not to pull it too hard or too gently - balance is the keyword here.
