An Alhambra Approach Focused on Modernity
The Alhambra CSs-3 is aimed at guitarists who appreciate the elegance and ergonomics of a body inspired by the classical guitar, while seeking the flexibility and response of a steel-string guitar. Its cutaway and compact size make it a natural ally to extend your range, work on higher passages, and vary colors without losing precision.
For Which Guitarists and Styles?
Thanks to its playability and balanced register, the CSs-3 suits both intermediate musicians looking for an expressive and comfortable guitar, and advanced guitarists seeking an acoustic with a clear and contemporary character. The steel strings favor dynamic attacks and articulated accompaniments, while remaining suitable for detailed arpeggios, modern rhythms, and arrangements where definition is essential.
Sound
Its solid cedar top provides a quick response and immediate harmonic richness, ideal for achieving a full sound from the first notes. The choice of white ebony for the back/sides and fingerboard enhances clarity and precision, with a beautiful note sustain. The construction with a Spanish heel contributes to good vibration transmission, resulting in convincing projection and comfortable sustain. Finally, the cutaway facilitates playing in the upper neck without compromising overall balance, for a defined and expressive guitar across the entire range.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
This guitar pairs ideally with the Alhambra 9738 gig bag (concert size), designed for transport: 25 mm padding, three pockets for accessories, handle and luxury strap, plus a neck protection cushion. Reflective strips are also present on the front to improve visibility during travel.
