Alhambra CS-1 CW E1 Crossover Classical Guitar
Alhambra CrossOver CS-1 CW E1 ? White Label Series
The Alhambra CrossOver CS-1 CW E1 blends traditional Spanish luthiery with modern design, creating a refined and highly playable instrument for today?s versatile guitarist. Handcrafted in Spain, this model merges the warmth and responsiveness of a classical guitar with the comfort and feel of a modern acoustic.
Featuring a solid cedar top paired with solid sapele back and sides, the CS-1 CW E1 produces a beautifully balanced tone?warm, full-bodied lows and mids complemented by articulate highs. Its cutaway body provides effortless access to upper frets, while the narrower crossover-style neck and integrated truss rod enhance comfort and adjustability for players transitioning from steel-string acoustic guitars.
Elegantly finished with gold tuners, a rosewood fingerboard, and Alhambra?s signature craftsmanship, this instrument not only plays beautifully but looks stunning as well. Equipped with Fishman Clasica M (E1) electronics, the CS-1 CW E1 delivers natural and powerful amplified tone with controls for volume, bass, mid, treble, and phase, along with an onboard chromatic tuner and LED low-battery indicator.
