The Twelfth Fret is very pleased to carry a wide range of quality instruments from Alhambra in Spain, ranging from beginner to professional concert grade. Their entry to the world of Flamenco is the model 2F.
The Alhambra Model 2F Flamenco guitar features a Solid Red Cedar top, with Sycamore for the sides and back. The neck is Mahogany with a fingerboard of Indian Rosewood. The body is bound on the top and back, and good quality nickel plated tuning machines are installed. A hard-shell Everest case, made in Canada, is included.
Let’s read what Alhambra presents about their Flamenco line, beginning with the model 2 F:
“A flamenco guitar which returns to the roots, to the tradition of flamenco art.
The 2 F model is a wonderful guitar. Finished with open pore varnish and with a solid cedar top, its sonority will draw your attention. Very powerful and with a truly flamenco sound.
In this model, the design has been especially careful and also the simplicity, together with an excellent quality. The 2 F is a good option for beginners, with excellent value for money.
Melamine is used for the saddle and the nut, a material that transmits the sound a lot and offers a round, very balanced sound.
In addition, Alhambra uses the ergo neck, a narrower one, made of Mahogany, which makes this model a very comfortable instrument.
In the words of Carlos Piñana:
Optional upgrade to Golpéador tap plate.Carlos Piñana: “The first time I took the guitar in my hands, when I plucked the first note, it took me back to my childhood. There were some guitars in my house and my father and my grandfather used to play them and the truth is that I feel that I am back to my roots, my tradition…and playing a guitar that brings to me that tradition, that root, that deep feeling that intoxicates me, such as remembering, my grandfather, my father when they used to play these guitars and meeting again with that sound, through this guitar… it is an incredible feeling and I cannot find the words to express it.”
The open pore finish used on the Alhambra Flamenco Guitar Model 2F provides an instrument with less weight and as you can see, an instrument of great beauty.
The light weight is very interesting for the little ones because they have to carry it to get around and this weight reduction is very important. “
