About This Listing
Brand New Lowden O35 , a special jumbo built with AAAA tonewoods, including a Lutz Spruce soundboard and a remarkable set of Bog Oak for the back and sides, wood that spent 5300 years sunken in a coastal bog in eastern England - collecting centuries worth of materials that lend themselves to a most unique tonal quality! We hear a lushness with plenty of overtones, almost a reverb like quality. Check out the attached demonstration video - courtesy of our good friend Doug Yeomans - and see what we mean. Use your headphones for the best results!
Basic specs include a 1-3/4" nut width and a long scale length of 25-9/16". Other features include Tasmanian Blackwood body binding, a maple bound Ebony fretboard, matched center back inlay strip, and matched Bog Oak front / back head facings. Those are Gotoh 510 tuners with Ebony buttons. Comes with a high quality case built for Lowden by Ameritage, as pictured.
