Alhambra 10 FC: a concert flamenca at the top of the range
The 10 FC embodies Alhambra's artisanal approach: rigorous wood selection, meticulous finishes, and pursuit of consistent musical balance across the entire fretboard. Designed as a concert guitar, it emphasizes the precision, consistency, and immediate response expected from a high-level flamenca, with manufacturing focused on performance and reliability for demanding guitarists.
Who is this flamenco guitar for?
The Alhambra 10 FC targets intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking a true flamenco feel: percussive playing, energetic rasgueados, precise picado, and clear attack articulation. It is perfectly suited for traditional flamenco as well as more modern approaches, while remaining very comfortable for accompaniment thanks to its comfort and quick response.
Sound
The combination of solid German spruce (top) and solid cypress (back and sides) is a classic for the "blanca" flamenco: it promotes a clear attack, direct projection, and natural brightness, with tight basses and incisive trebles that "cut" through the rhythm. The tap plate protects the top while embracing the percussive dimension of the style. The glossy finish, with a nitrocellulose lacquer on the top, aims to preserve vibration capacity for a responsive instrument with controlled sustain and balanced tone across the fretboard. Finally, the two bone nuts (different heights) allow adjustment of the action according to your playing style: lower for speed and comfort, or slightly higher for a different dynamic reserve, while remaining consistent with the flamenco spirit.
