NEW ARRIVALLowdens are the one brand of guitar, other than some vintage guitars, that have the quality that I like to call unputdownableness. This O22 is hugely responsive. The first thing that strikes you when you play this guitar is the amazing depth and bass response, not boomy but very smooth. The overall sound is well balanced, with great resonance and clarity. As with all Lowdens it handles alternate tuning particularly well, and is equally happy being fingerpicked or strummed, the neck is very comfortable and the action just right. The Red Cedar top and Mahogany back and sides give thew guitar a really distinctive look, simple but classy. The guitar is in nearly new condition, and comes in it's original Lowden embossed hard case.
