An accessible classical guitar with traditional build and rich tone.
The Alvarez Regent Series RS26N classical acoustic guitar provides an exceptional entry into the world of nylon-string instruments. With its spruce top and mahogany back and sides, this guitar creates a warm and balanced tone perfect for any style. The dovetail neck joint and fan bracing give you rich sustain and projection. Its slim mahogany neck and synthetic bone nut make the RS26N easy to hold and play. Overall, the RS26N gives you a high-quality classical guitar at an affordable price.
Spruce Top Resonates Beautifully
The RS26N's spruce top generates a bright, focused tone with crisp articulation. Spruce is a lightweight, resonant wood that allows the guitar's sound to ring out with clarity and projection. When you play, the spruce top helps each note sing with a full, rounded quality that fills the room. The natural satin finish allows the wood to breathe and enhances its acoustic qualities.
Mahogany Back and Sides Add Warmth
The mahogany used for the back and sides injects warmth and depth into the RS26N's tone. Mahogany is a popular wood for nylon-string guitars because of its balanced sonic characteristics. It helps round out the spruce top's projection with full, mellow notes. The combination creates an instrument suited for delicate fingerpicking or rhythmic strumming. When you play, you'll notice how the mahogany complements and supports the spruce.
Comfortable Playability
Everything about the RS26N is designed with the player in mind. Its slim mahogany neck and 1-5/8" nut make fretting chords and single notes effortless. The neck's satin finish allows your hand to glide smoothly along the fingerboard. The guitar's lightweight, compact body rests comfortably against your body as you play. Whether you're practicing or performing, the RS26N's ergonomic and balanced design keeps you focused on your music.
Quality Appointments for the Price
For an entry-level nylon-string guitar, the RS26N includes impressive appointments. Chrome tuners provide precise tuning stability. The synthetic bone nut and saddle offer tonal clarity. Traditional Spanish fan bracing enhances resonance and sustain. An attractive ivory ABS binding adds a touch of elegance. Gig bag included. When you consider all the RS26N offers for its price, it's an unbeatable value for any guitarist looking to explore the world of classical nylon-string instruments.
