92lowds34

NEW ARRIVAL This S34 is a one-off unique guitar, not a production model - no other S is labelled as S34. Not to be confused with current Lowden S models - In early 2000s after George parted company with his business partner, Steve McIlwrath (who then started Avalon) and set up a new Lowden workshop outside Downpatrick he relaunched the S as one of his three production models (O, F & S) but with a different shape, (he had 'lost' the original S mould in the breakup). As well as being a very special part of Lowden history, this guitar is simply stunning - possibly the best looking Koa back and sides I’ve seen. Coupled with the Cedar top which has turned a dark honey colour, the guitar is absolutely beautiful. This is a very complex sounding guitar, highly articulate with great sustain, but at no point overpowering - in fact as the sustain begins to fade there’s a shimmer to each note. The guitar’s in very good condition, with a great feeling neck and easy playing action. The guitar comes in it’s original Hiscox hard case.
