 Listen to the Alhambra 5P CW A E2 (Recorded by external microphone not using the built-in Fishman pickup and preamp).

The 5P CW E2 also comes in many variations: you can have it with a soundboard in either solid German spruce (5P CW A E2) or solid red cedar (5P CW E2), and you to order you can have the slim-line model (5P CT). Alternative electronics as well as a left handed version are also available to order.

All the variations come with laminated Indian rosewood back and sides, a Spanish cedar neck with African ebony fingerboard, and gold plated machine heads.

The Alhambra 5P CW E2 is built with a slightly narrower neck width than is standard for classical models so that the player who comes from a steel-string guitar background will feel more at home in the left hand.
