Description

Lowden O50c built with Mastergrade African Blackwood and Adirondack Red Spruce. Big, impressive tone, sustain, playability and of course the immaculate Lowden workmanship.

This Lowden O50c is a tone machine pus sang and a fingerstyle player’s dream. Build with beautiful African Blackwood and mastergrade Adirondack Red Spruce, this 50 series Lowden is one of the best out there. The AAAAA Adirondack Red Spruce comes from very slow growing old trees and produces a punchy, warm and clear sound. Combined with African Blackwood, one get a wonderful articulation and crystal clear defined notes with massive sustain and those fabulous overtones that only Italian Alpine Spruce produces. Check out George’s story on Adirondack HERE.

The O-size body was developed by George in the mid-seventies. With a larger lower bout and a traditional size upper bout the bass response is impressive while the mid and high notes are still loud and clear, delivering a very balanced guitar with excellent note separation. This is an impressive Lowden amongst the Lowden guitars out there.
