Default NUGD 2019 Wee Lowden WL-22

This Wee Lowden arrived today:

It’s a lightly used 2019 model. Cedar over Mahogany. It has a factory fitted LR Baggs Session VTC.

My 12 fret S35 sounds huge. This little Wee isn’t far off. For such a small box it really kicks out a huge, smooth tone.

The mahogany back and sides I find give less overtones that you rosewood and walnut Lowdens have and it makes a really nice little strummer and picker.

The short scale and neck is really comfortable and I could sit playing this for hours.

Congrats. I played one a few years back that was cedar/African Blackwood. Beautiful tone but very neck heavy. Definitely fun to play.
Best,
Jayne

That's lovely, congratulations.
I thought long and hard about the Wee but eventually went with an S35M.
