    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.

    I have been playing acoustic guitars for over 60 years. My dear friend purchased a Lowden and I am about to visit him and play a Lowden guitar..

    I am lucky enough to have 2 Lowdens and they certainly are Loud-un’s.

    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.

      I got one about 6 months ago and it's epic. I really can't find any negatives.

      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!!!

    To me it has a full sound. It lacks twang, which is a good thing.

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

      ​@@NeverTalkToCops1At 5.20 he says the sides are formed in a bending machine. Fine tuning for each guitar is done by hand. Pretty sure they know what they are doing.

    Missing gig bag from lowden order directly. Once you order a hard case bag they will shortchange you. Promised to ship out replacement gig bag since Oct till Dec 2023. Nothing done so far. Regretted buying from such poor after sales support. Go somewhere else

      Only if you want something which has over powering bass, and a muddy sound across the mids and treble. For players who strum open chords and play Country music.

      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

      @@NeverTalkToCops1 Well lets discuss that like adults then, as my reply was in jest to the silly BUY 'MURICAN' comment by the OP.
      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.
