My brother in law came to visit last night (before the next wave of Swiss Covid lockdowns kicks in tomorrow). He's a professional jazz bassist who dabbles in guitar (and is still way better than me). He ended up loving the Lowden and taking it home. We're not sure if he's going to keep it yet, so I won't delete this ad, but I'm guessing that he will.
None-the-less- if you are interested, feel free to reach out and I will see if I can convince him to look for another guitar instead
