Part of their Regent Series, the Alvarez RC26HC is a hybrid classical nylon-string guitar with a steel-string-style neck that's a bit more comfortable for fretting and chord stretches. It comes ready to plug in with the Alvarez SYS250 preamp by B-Band.

The Alvarez Regent Series is designed as an entry-level guitar that will keep new players focused and excited about their instrument from day one.

They're classic-looking guitars that encompass many of the features and design elements that Alvarez's high-end instruments have, like its bi-level bridge, and a rosewood bridge and fingerboard.

The models are finished in a high gloss and come in either Sitka or rosewood outfits.
