Lowden
Lowden F-10 Indian Rosewood & Cedar
The Original Series captures the essence of what makes a Lowden guitar. Designed with George Lowden’s unique and original bracing, these guitars deliver the distinctive Lowden sound: full, warm, and dynamically responsive. With understated aesthetics and a focus on tonal purity, the Original Series is where our tradition of innovation and craftsmanship began.
From George Lowden "For years I have been thinking of developing a light weight “bolt on” design neck joint - one that would achieve a really solid joint but not disturb the natural balance of the instrument.
I have also reduced the neck stiffness slightly by using a 3 piece design which also allows a little more transference of the necks natural vibration.
The results are two completely new models which still very much have that characteristic Lowden tone which now seems a little more versatile between different playing styles from bluegrass to fingerpicking to celtic strumming."
