Default NGD - Sheeran By Lowden S03

I just got this Lowden guitar and posted my initial review. I plan on making several follow up reviews after I have the guitar setup and switch out the pickup. It should be an interesting journey into the life of a new guitar!

Thank you. This is just my initial thoughts. I will be getting a set up, upgrading to an Anthem SL and will post a couple more videos about the guitar soon! Let me know if you try one and what you think.

You didn't mention that the wood is on this one. Or did I miss it? Looks kind of like cedar over rosewood, maybe?

You’re right. Cedar top and Santos Rosewood.

Quite a nice tone both unplugged and amplified. Congratulations!

Very good and thorough review. Thank you for doing this.

I'm looking forward to hearing the difference when you swap the pickups. Maybe keep this vid close at hand so you can A/B the original pickup to your new one so the difference can be understood clearly.

Looking forward to Part ll and yes, I've subscribed.

Best,
PJ
