Alhambra 9P Classical Guitar

Alhambra 9P Classical Guitar - cedar - front angle

"My Alhambra 9P is absolutely wonderful to play" Lars Ekelund Sweden 28/01/2011

The Alhambra 9P rewards the slightly more experienced player with a full-bodied, truely Spanish sound - bags of dynamic range, drama and nuance. If it were a Spanish wine I think it would be described as "rich and full-bodied."

"I like the action as it feels comfortable to play and there is room for power" wrote Dag Skarvang, Norway when he received his 9P with spruce soundboard on 20/6/2009.

"I've spent three weeks with the Alhambra 9P now and having played it quite a lot, I must admit I love it... The 9P feels lot nicer to play [than my old guitar] once you get used to the need for a much more positive and precise technique. The sound is so full, clear and bright whilst the volume and sustain is amazing... The action is nicely set and the overall feel of the guitar is superb " Rob Scragg, 7/7/2009.

We try to keep examples with a solid German spruce and with solid red cedar soundboards in stock at all times. The guitar has solid Rosewood back and sides, an Ebony fingerboard, and gold plated quality tuners. The guitar is strung with D'Addario Extra high tension strings.

One owner reviewing an Alhambra 9 in Harmony Central wrote -

"Warm brassy bass sound. Nice, firm mid-tones and smooth but clear in high tones. The overall sound is full and well balanced. Due to the Indian rosewood, the guitar has a fair amount of sustain and an extremely powerful projection...Great value for your money."

Another owner, this time on UltimateGuitar.com, wrote -

"beautifully crafted, has a wonderful tone, is very loud, and is very playable. This is an excellent choice for the serious guitar player."
