Unlike cedar, which is very constant, spruce guitars continue to develop over time.

The sides and back of the 4PA are made of Indian rosewood. This wood can be recognized by its dark, attractive-looking pattern. In combination with the light spruce wood, a contrast is created that makes the guitar look very attractive. The rosewood has a dark tonal influence on the sound, which is often considered very beautiful.

Playing the Alhambra 4P is a joy! The brand is known for their good workmanship and tuning of the instruments. These therefore play very lightly and are recommended by many professionals. The fingerboard is made of ebony, a hard wood. This makes the guitar withstand prolonged pressure from the left hand without wear and tear.

Moreover, all Alhambra guitars are handmade in Spain, which also ensures that quality can be guaranteed. Furthermore, the appearance of the guitar is also hugely important.

The Luthier Aniversario is exactly what the name insinuates: this model was developed for the 50^th anniversary of Alhambra. The guitar was designed to be aesthetically pleasing, comfortable to play, versatile, and perfectly adjusted. The guitar has twenty frets and a very comfortable neck, meaning the neck slides nicely through the hand. The guitar has a ‘Japanese House’ construction. It is called that because it is shaped like a house and was designed by Japanese companies.

Materials
