NEW ARRIVALDuring 1991 Lowden changed their model names to the now familiar S, F and O. Prior to that the designated letter described the type of tone wood - in this case W for Walnut. This guitar would now be called an 0-23 as it’s the bigger bodied model, featuring a Cedar top with Walnut back and sides. It’s a very responsive guitar, capable of creating a big, orchestral sound with great detail, but also capable of subtle nuances while playing fingerstyle. In alternate tuning it really excels, drop the low E to a D and the floor starts to shake. The guitar in in excellent condition, the 30 years of play have allowed to tone to mature beautifully, and the playability is very comfortable. The guitar comes in it’s original Hiscox flight case.
