    Category: Product Condition: Brand New

    Our price:

    Very special Lowden S35 GR/AS 12-fret build with AAAA Guatemalan Rosewood for back and sides and paired with an Alpine Spruce soundboard. She shows how much love and care goes into every Lowden and offers tonal heaven.

    This Lowden S35 GR/AS guitar is another perfect example of how much love and care goes into every Lowden. A Lowden S35 is the ultimate small-bodied guitar, bringing out the mid-range punch as well as a great response and feel.  Despite the compact body size, there is no sacrifice in tone, clarity or projection. And that sustain! Incredible!!.

    The AAAA Italian Alpine Spruce comes from very slow growing old trees and produces a very warm and clear sound. Guatemalan Rosewood is the Brazilian Rosewood successor, an outstanding tonewood.  This hard to get tonewood has a glassy bell like tone in the trebles and deep bass response. Compared to Madagascar, it has more of a sweetness to the trebles. Great sounding wood, phenomenal guitar. Listen to a sound impression here:
