1999 Lowden F25

SOLD  This is a great example of the medium size Lowden, with my favourite combination of Cedar top and Rosewood back and sides. The Cedar top adds warmth to the overall tone, and the Rosewood delivers clarity and definition. The medium body size gives a great balance to the overall tone. It has a rich, full sound, with great resonance and sustain, and the neck has a great feel and very easy playing action. As with all Lowdens it handles alternate tuning particularly well, and is equally happy being fingerpicked or strummed. At 25 years old it has really matured, and the Cedar top has darkened beautifully. The guitar is in excellent condition, and comes in it’s original Hiscox flight case.
