Lowden - F35C Sitka/Cocobolo - Cutaway, Highlander pickup system

Our latest flagship Lowden guitar! The 35 is for the serious player who can appreciate a whole new world of subtle tone colours and dynamic range, and feature AAAA figured tonewoods used throughout, Abalone and wood rosette, hand mitred purfling joints on sides and back, wood bound ebony fingerboard, and the superb Gotoh 510 series gold/ebony machineheads. This particular guitar was custom ordered with highly figured Cocobolo back and sides, and Sitka Spruce top. Cocobolo is heavy, strikingly beautiful and a great wood for steel string guitars. Very similar to Brazilian rosewood in tone, clear, loud and yet warm at the same time. Perfect for someone who wants to be very versatile in playing styles from strumming, percussive picking to fingerstyle.

The "F" model is what you may call Lowden's OM model, extremely suitable for Fingerstyle with great balance, but it's powerful and strong also and will handle strumming very well. As with all instruments we have received so far, the workmanship is superb and perfect to the last detail. Unmatched beauty combined with unheard tonal qualities is summing up the scarce numbers of Lowden Guitars we can get our hands on. And this one is a extremely nice example. The guitar comes with COA and hiscox flight case. Includes factory fitted Highlander IP1 Active pickup system, with endpin jack. A fantastic sounding pickup!
