Alhambra 4P
Here is the best selling Alhambra.

4 layers of light varnish highlight the solid Red Western Cedar top and a gorgeous one-sided Rosewood laminate on back and side.
The fingerboard is made of gorgeous Ebony!

You notice the Machine heads (aka tuning keys, tuners) are superior quality. They allow you smooth and precise tuning.
Ebony knobs… wow… Really high class!

The soundboard – major influence on the guitar’s sound – consists of a thin piece of softwood that is supported by 7 braces like the Iberia.
2 harmonic bars at the bottom will enhance a full-bodied, warm and rich sound.
The important qualities of such woods include a close grain count and high stiffness to mass ratio (allows maximum output for the minimum input), resilience, light weight and resonance.
Beautifully hand-crafted in Spain with a lashy handmade inlaid wood Rosette proves all the attention from the Alhambra Guitar Makers.
Features:
Top: Solid Red Cedar
Back/Sides: Laminated Rosewood
Neck: Mahogany
Fingerboard: Ebony
Tuners: Gold Plated

Alhambra 11P Concert Model

Solid woods throughout, Indian Rosewood back & sides fine grain high quality Western Red Cedar. The fingerboard is made of the nicest dark Ebony you have ever seen. Luxury Gold Plated Machine Heads are top quality, holding the tuning straight as a dial.
The first thing you notice is the 20th fret, expanding the instrument range.
This guitar’s appearance is subtly beautiful.
Fineness of the finish and warm color of the various woods, but a closer look reveals lovely details. The tightness and especially the eveness of the grain in the Cedar Top is exceptional. The ‘gold’ appearing inlay in the back is also lovely. All workmanship is flawless.
Headstock design is different and there is green double border inlay emphasizing the beauty of this concert guitar.
The high gloss finish is a kind of smooth and very nice feeling.
Harmonic bar reinforcements arched like a bridge, also called “Scalloped Bracing”. Being glued at only few critical points, this type of bracing let the top vibrate freely. Reason why the guitar is so responsive!

Sweet full sound with lot of volume and clarity across the complete register. Very resonant with tremendous sustain and a really a “good kick” in the lower register. The most striking thing about this 11C’s tone is the way it responds to a players touch.
- As the ‘attack’ increases the guitar becomes not just louder, but brighter. This rewards good playing technique and gives the musician great latitude of expression.
That marks the especially fine classical guitar.

Alhambra Luthier Rio

Just touching it is a sensual experience, the beautiful finish; I should say the perfect finish, the incredible quality of Solid German Spruce top with very tight and regular nodules all across it. The back and sides are made of gorgeous Brazilian Rosewood.The revolutionary floating bracing pattern gives it a really phenomenal tone and projection, amazingly rich and refined. Its fullness, tone quality, craftsmanship, volume, projection, and playability are superb. This guitar is a wonderful example of the fine work of the luthiers at Alhambra. This is by far one of the best guitar you have played. You now explore the endless possibilities of tone for new interpretations.
