- How to hold Dominican Guira and Gancho video, talks about the advantage of using both hands at the same time.
The almost 45 degree angle pose and the basic way to hold the Gancho. BE ADVISED, THIS ONLY APPLIES TO FORMAL MERENGUE, in other words MERENGUE DE ORQUESTA, NOT MERENGUE TIPICO.

@@johnguira When the topic it's about the güira I'll always come for asking questions😋
How did you muffle the instrument mine is sounding to tinny I have a lp ultra pro
Maestro que tamño de guira usas?
Great video! Question: I've been playing la güiera for a few months now in my church group. One of the band members mentioned about a tape that güieros place inside la güiera to give it a crispier sound. Have you heard anything about that?
The reason why we add a paper tape is simply to dampen the vibration that a naked guira makes when its brushed with the gancho. This damp method is not significant but it does help muffle the aftermath of creating friction with the frame of the guira =) Thanks for the question and support =)
@@johnguira Thank you for the response. Makes perfect sense. I'll give it a try
Where can i get the grey padding you have in the guira?
Great question Juan. Nice to meet you.. You can get that foam padding from Sam ash music store or guitar center or ebay or any discent music store online that sells sound proofing material. I got mine in a studio in Dominican Republic
how to get this güira help plz ?
John can you please do a tipico video in other examples they go to dam fast and your precise thank you
Thank you =) I try. It's not easy but I think I am going to work on new material. Thank you for your patience btw, and thank you for watching
I will try, thank you for watching
Hey Hermano! Cool video..! Can I use some of the footage for a bachata cover video?
Gracias!
As long as my name gets credit It's all good by me! Thank you in advanced
johnguira Hey Amigo, yes for sure and thanks again 🙏🏽
Good advice right from the beginning
Great tutorial. 👏🏼👏🏼 Is it normal for it to echo too much? We have one but it doesn’t sound right.
Thanks so much, yep normal for it to vibrate and eco a bit,all normal. But if it's like an elongated eco you may wanna dampen that sound because sonically speaking you don't need it.
Nice i like
thanks bro, nice vid, but why do put that grey thing inside la guira whats it for???
So it won't sound as loud and makes a cleaner sound
Mi brother que bien fue este video... y una pregunta yo quiero saver cual fue ese mambo que tienis en el video para praticar con esa cacion
my bad I'm so late. Cual video, which mambo?
Thank you very much!
My pleasure 😊
what technique would you use if you cant turn your wrist completely? as in the palm of your hand does not line up with the front of your elbow when you turn it
That is great question... I'm trying to understand the question, could you rephrase your inquiry for me? Thank you
@@johnguira I was born missing a muscle that allows that like in this video ua-cam.com/video/OU1fxuHSQ38/v-deo.html it just stays in place though my hand is able to bend up and down. I've been playing guira using basic drum stick techniques like drum strokes up and down while slightly moving the guira at the same time to do certain fills. To be honest I have more elbow motion when I'm playing and I'm finding it that without the rotating movement I run out of stamina faster compared to others and there's a certain gap of fills that can't be maintained due to the need of flexible rotation. What would you recommend as an alternative to play the guira without rotation of the wrist or a exercise that only involves moving the hand up and down o-o?
Can someone explain the foam in the Guira?
Excellent question, the foam is used inside to decrease the volume of the guira, if you want to silence it a little to avoid making it too loud. commonly use in the studio so that the mic does not pick up too much of its vibrations. it makes it sound more clear and clean... of course when playing live you are not gonna see it because the guira drowns under all the other instruments that are playing next to all at the same time. Is it necessary? Yes for recording is a must. But not for regular use and definitely don't use it if you are playing a live performance. I hope this helps.
@@johnguira Thanks for very detailed response, Much appreciated!
@@TheoSuperHero my pleasure, thanks for your support as well
porque mi guiro ase un sonido metal? uno feo que no suena como en el video
Gracias por tu pregunta y tu apoyo a mi canal. La guira que olles aqui esta equalizada osea que no esta cruda. =) si le pones brillo a tu guira cuando grabes talvez te sonaria como la mia =)
@@johnguira AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH ahora, i get it tank you gracias

La Güira y la tambora son instrumentos de fabricación y origen Dominicano, y la utilizamos para tocar merengue y bachata ¿entienden?

Cómo se llama la canción en el 1:40?
Creo que es una version diferente de una tema en vivo que es un poco extendida improvisada. Canta Tono Rosario "Me voy pal pueblo" Suerte y espero esto te ayude
Pa' cuando en español?
No lo se. No e podido grabarlo, se me presentaron otros projecto
If i dont learn this Im going to call my mom so she can disown me for not being dominican enough
