| We get a lot of musicians who have played steel string guitars for
decades and now want to add a nylon string tonality to their arsenal.
Nylon string guitars after all, sound sooooo good for interpreting
not only legit classical repertoire but also Latin and jazz flavored compositions.
After years of gigging with steel strung instruments, a true classical
guitar neck can feel quite ungainly though. Enter the new Model 5P
CWX Crossover guitar from Alhambra!
Alhambra have been crafting classical and
flamenco guitars in Muro de Alcoy Spain for over twenty years and have
refined both their craft and their signature sound to a very high level.
Last January we initiated & collaborated in the design of this new
" Crossover " style instrument that would feel a lot more friendly to non-classical
players. This new Model 5P CWX Crossover is essentially a true classical
guitar body but with an added Venetian cutaway, narrower 1 7/8" nut
width, radiused fingerboard and side dots! |
