A Conservatory-Level Classical Guitar in the Alhambra Spirit
The Series 7 P A is part of Alhambra's traditional models designed to meet the demands of a concert guitar: meticulous craftsmanship, selected solid woods, and a robust playing feel. With its cutaway, this version retains the "concert" DNA while adding a real advantage for upper-fret passages.
For Which Guitarist and Styles?
This classical guitar is primarily aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists (conservatory level) seeking an expressive, precise, and versatile instrument. It excels in classical repertoire, contemporary compositions, nuanced accompaniment, and fingerstyle arrangements, with the added benefit of the cutaway and electronics for amplified performances.
Sound Characteristics
The solid German spruce top provides a clear attack, excellent definition, and a marked tonal evolution over time: the guitar gains openness and richness as the years go by. The solid Indian rosewood back and sides enhance bass depth, harmonic breadth, and sustain, ideal for "dry sound" pieces or highly articulated interpretations. The ebony fingerboard contributes to a precise tactile sensation, while the melamine nut and saddle promote good vibration transmission. The "concert" dimensions (deeper sides) contribute to projection and overall balance.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To get the best out of this classical guitar, you can pair it with a nylon string set (normal or high tension depending on your touch), a tuner, and, to preserve the solid woods, a humidifier suitable for acoustic guitars. The included 9738 case is ideal for daily transport and protection.
