Default SOLD --Perfect Lowden F35X for Sale

I am selling an absolutely stunning Lowden F35X. If you know fingerstyle guitar, then you know Lowden. And if you know Lowden, you probably know that Redwood top / Walnut back and sides is George Lowden’s favorite wood combination.

This instrument, serial number 16131, has a build date of 1/5/08. The body style, F, is not quite as big as the jumbo O size, and the X in the designation indicates the upgraded wood combination. This combination has a richness that I usually associate with cedar/rosewood, but a little less “dark”. It rings very nicely! Redwood is said to have a faster response than cedar and the walnut gives a little more focus to the overtones, more clarity and definition.

The walnut grain is beautiful – wavy without being too weird! The top has very tight grain and a deep, rich color. It is in virtually unplayed condition -- there is literally not a mark on this guitar. Comes with an upgraded Hiscox case.

Order it from George today and it will set you back in excess of $6,500. My price: $3,500.

Something to consider as you head off to work tomorrow and think about how you'd rather be playing guitar...

I pretty sure this is the definition of guitar porn.
