The Alhambra 10Fp Piñana Spruce is a flamenco negra guitar, completely solid and with cedar top. A very beautiful guitar of great quality. (Click here to hear the pronunciation of "Alhambra".)
NOTE: This guitar has a standard gloss finish. The photos make it appear much like a satin finish, but that is not accurate. Updated photos will be added soon.
This model has been developed in collaboration with the flamenco guitarist Carlos Piñana, which has introduced technical specifications that define an instrument with the qualities required by today's flamenco guitarists, obtaining a very beautiful and high quality flamenco guitar.
As a differentiating element of the 10 Fp Piñana, the design of the head is evident. A horn-shaped top with a glossy finish that easily identifies this instrument and gives it a lot of personality.
The 10Fp Piñana model is a guitar called “negra”, due to its main feature, the use of Indian rosewood solid to make the back and sides. This particular instrument was special-ordered with a spruce top, giving it a more traditional flamenco sound than the standard 10Fp Piñana model.
On this particular 10Fp Piñana, the finish is gloss.
The 10Fp Piñana is a guitar with a very flamenco sound but with a special warmth, an adequate sound to be able to interpret the current flamenco music, but without losing the tradition of this art.
The 10 Fp Piñana model is crafted with luxury gold machine heads and a very comfortable neck with ebony reinforcement.
An instrument that by its aesthetic characteristics has a lot of elegance and personality. These are qualities that are strengthened when they join the sound of this interesting guitar.

The Alhambra 10Fp Piñana Spruce Negra Flamenco Guitar represents authentic Spanish craftsmanship at its finest. Built by the most experienced team at Alhambra, this collaboration between the company and renowned flamenco guitarist Juan Piñana has resulted in an instrument that honors traditional flamenco while incorporating modern innovations.
Handcrafted in Spain, this negra-style flamenco guitar features a solid European spruce top that delivers the crisp, responsive attack essential for flamenco playing. The Indian rosewood back and sides provide the deeper, more complex tone characteristic of flamenco negra guitars.
The 10Fp Piñana offers the distinctive percussive qualities flamenco players seek, with enough projection to cut through in ensemble settings. Its premium woods, superb craftsmanship, unique bracing pattern give a rich flamenco sound. Its nitrocellulose lacquer finish allows the spruce to vibrate more freely, producing a richer and bigger sound. The slightly lower action compared to classical guitars facilitates the fast, intricate techniques central to flamenco performance.
The guitar's ebony fingerboard provides smooth playability for rapid passages and scale runs, while the traditional Spanish heel construction ensures optimal vibration transfer between the neck and body.
This model incorporates a traditional Spanish fan bracing pattern that has been refined to enhance the distinctive flamenco sound. The guitar's solid rosewood bridge provides stable string anchoring and contributes to its rich tonal palette.
The elegant aesthetic includes a hand-inlaid rosette and clean, precise purfling that highlights the instrument's fine craftsmanship. Premium Schaller tuning machines ensure precise and stable tuning.
