    Back in the 90s, I sold my Lowden because I needed the money. Over the years, I have owned some great guitars (including a Collings that I have now, and absolutely love), but I always missed my Lowden. A few days ago, I bought a F22c (which is almost exactly like the guitar I regretted selling so many years ago). I’m very happy with my decision.

    Interesting that George aims for immediate responsiveness when, for example, Linda Manzer's flat tops, I believe, often have heavier soundboards that deliberately require some significant playing to fully open up.

      Haha. Love to read that. I own a 023 build round about 1996. You need to kill me seperate me from this treasure. These guitars are breathing, giving response at every volume, caressing or strumming, that doesn't matter. I love every time taking that beauty and listen to her. Much fun with her!!!

      Too much. Also, hand bending the sides is stupid, with only 4 body shapes. Machines do better and way faster bending.

      @@NeverTalkToCops1every species of tonewood springs back out of shape at different rates depending on its natural properties.
      You can force your way around this by keeping the sides in a mould right up until the box is closed but that locks tension into the soundbox. Only way to truly put it together without tension is to tweak each set. Or stick to one tone wood
      It all depends on how far a builder is willing to go to avoid building stress into the instrument.
      Take old violins that have lost a bit of their tone- it is well known that disassembling them and re-assembling them sometimes brings the tone back. This is because it relieves the tension that has built up in its construction.

      Most important is,...we are musicians, so free individuals and we are proud about that. Because musicians are open minded regarding color, race, religion, gender, age, mindset and nationality. We are good. You are are not good! We don't need any weird patriots probably never played a Lowdon but repeating the bullshit of Mr. "complete insane Trump". Here is no America first. Here is quality first. So please stop your idiotic comments

      Which types / brands of American guitars have close to the balance, intonation, overtones, harmonics, etc that a hand made Lowden does ?
      I own a Lowden 32se myself, after owning 20+ guitars from about 12 different brands, English, Irish, American, Japanese, etc and not one of them had the amazing sound that my Lowden has.
