Lowden f22c vintage MOJO
If you want old school Irish mojo then look no further. Here is a beautiful example of that old magical combo of cedar and mahogany. This one has been in my private stash of cherry picked prime old school lowdens. I have personally had over 40 lowdens of all vintages and this one falls in the top 7. You will not be disappointed. The condition is nice for its age. There are no structural issues and it is set up ready to play. It has the original case.

Nice one ! Could you please tell us the year of build and/or serial number to see if it'a an 'irish license' model or one of the few built by George and a small team when he brought production back to Northern Ireland after the Japanese license ?
In MP if you prefer... Thanks and good luck with the sales

Serial 2371 Most cedar and mahogany lowdens that I have placed under the 2400 serial number have been unbelievable. I had a 300ish 12 string that was light as a feather that I should never have sold.
I bet the l34 is sweet. Last edited by locust19; 02-18-2019 at 07:05 PM.

Good to see the old girl again. My oldest daughter purchased this guitar used from a private party in Phoenix for me quite a few years ago. I owned and enjoyed it a long time, even purchasing it back once after regretting selling it.
It is a wonderful and magical sounding instrument for sure with plenty of mojo to spare! Very clean and clear with a nice warm tone. I will say that it has the best neck I've ever encountered on any Lowden I've owned or played. Not thick and very comfy and fast. Feels great. One other point. The case is not original. I replaced it with a near new Hiscox during my ownership. The new owner is in for a real treat with this Lowden.  Best of luck with the sale.John

Era- 1989-2003
Origin- 1307-1846- Balloo Industrial Estate 1847-15000- Glenvale Industrial Estate Workshops, Newtownards, NI NEW MODEL NAMES: At around the end of 1991, model designations changed. Previously the letter had indicated the botanical name of the wood used for the back & sides [eg. S = Swetenia = mahogany; L = dalbergia Latifolia = indian rosewood] . The new model names reflected the increasing range of body size/shape options. So O was introduced = Original body shape/size; F = the new mid size Flat-picker’s body shape/size; and in 1992 the S was introduced as the brand new Small body. The S when followed by a J was the Jazz nylon string model.
