A Revisited Series 1 Alhambra: The Study Spirit with Next-Generation Finish
This Alhambra 1 C HT (Hybrid Terra) retains the DNA of the brand's study guitars, handcrafted with selected woods, while offering a distinctive visual signature. The finish combines gloss and open pores, creating a distinctive instrument at this level. It also aligns with a more responsible approach thanks to a new ecological varnishing system, designed to improve the carbon footprint and significantly reduce CO2 emissions.
Who Is It For, and Which Styles?
With its Señorita (7/8) format and excellent playability, this classical guitar is primarily aimed at beginners and conservatory students, as well as guitarists seeking a comfortable classical guitar for daily use. It is particularly suited to the classical repertoire, technical studies (arpeggios, slurs, barre chords), as well as softer acoustic styles such as Latin music or light fingerpicking accompaniment (nylon strings).
Sound
The solid red cedar top provides a soft attack, beautiful roundness, and a "already open" sound sensation, very appreciated for progressing without strain. The back and sides in sapelli/mahogany enhance the warmth of the midrange and offer balanced projection, ideal for practice at home or lessons. Designed for study, the 1 C HT maintains volume and good note definition. The nut and saddle made of melamine promote consistent vibration transmission for a round and precise sound, and the instrument will naturally gain richness over hours of playing.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To get the best out of this guitar, a set of nylon strings for classical guitar (normal or low tension) is a safe choice to preserve playing comfort and sound balance. The instrument comes with its case 9731, convenient for transport and storage.
