George Lowden's model O design is a big, full sounding guitar with the trademark Lowden power and brilliance. This particular guitar has a slinky action and open voice. The condition is excellent and the tone is everything you'd expect from a Lowden. Equally adept at fingerstyle or strumming and it can take hard hitting and keep giving back.
