If you continue your learning journey you then may look at a real flamingo guitar and consider its point of origin. YMMV

Note that I speak from experience. I have taught guitar from the late 1960s. I have seen 100s of people and/or parents spend a ton of money on guitars and amps only to have the student quit. They quit for a number of reasons like "I've taken 5 lessons and I'm not a rock star yet", or "I didn't know I had to cut my nails", or "I didn't think it would be this hard", or "I don't have the time to practice" etc.



Thanks for the input. I am looking for a flamenco guitar because it is different then a traditional classical guitar. The flamenco guitar has a lower action than a classical guitar to give that buzz sound for flamenco and has a "pick" guard to allow player to make percussion sounds . It's much more than just a nylon guitar.
