Alhambra 5FP Mahogany Rosewood Nylon-String with Cedar Top Pure Flamenco

The flamenco guitarist Carlos Piana and Alhambra Guitars collaborated to create the model 5 Fp OP Piana. Alhambra has introduced some technical specifications that combine to create a very versatile guitar with excellent value for money and the qualities demanded by today's flamenco guitarists. The 5 Fp OP model Piana is a flamenco guitar known as a flamenco negra. It is made of Indian rosewood rather than cypress for the back and sides. However, in this case, it is important to emphasise the use of solid Cedar for the top. The use of a cedar top is uncommon in flamenco guitars, but Alhambra has been researching new bracing designs to create a flamenco-style guitar. Its round sound lends itself well to the interpretation of various styles. The 5 Fp OP Piana model features gold machine heads, a comfortable Mahogany neck reinforced with ebony, and melamine for the saddle and nut, a highly transmitting material that aids in sound balance. This model has a sophisticated appearance, numerous special details, and a high-quality sound. The 5 Fp OP Piana is a unique flamenco guitar with innovative elements while remaining true to flamenco tradition. Alhambra has used open pore system in the development of this guitar. This finishing system provides a natural satin finish in the aesthetics of the instrument, where the pores of the wood remain open, allowing the sound of the guitar to resonate well. This finish requires less varnish, but it produces a powerful sound.
