2006 George Lowden Guitars 0-10x - Jumbo Acoustic Guitar
I can't imagine a guitar offering more tone for the buck in our shop at this time. Lowden no longer makes the 10 series so it's hard to find this model. The mahogany and cedar body is a great combination that is extremely powerful, yes cedar can be powerful, and it's also richer than the typical Lowden.

Player Reviews:
"I really like this one, it has a big, bold voice that is very quick and punchy. The wood combination is unique and makes me wonder why we don't see this duo more often. I love it!" - Paul Heumiller
"If you like a big, woody-sounding guitar, this could be the one for you. The Lowden O is a big voice that remains clear and articulate up the entire fingerboard." - Al Petteway
