Player Reviews:

"A classic example of George's work. The L body is the precursor of the current O model. The bass response is amazing but the guitar remains in balance with great sparkle. A rare and special Lowden." - Paul Heumiller

"One of the guitars that gave George Lowden a great name in the guitar building business. This oversized guitar has got a big sound without any boom. Great for fingerstyle, especially in the Celtic style." - Al Petteway
