What better way to celebrate four decades in the lutherie business than a limited run of your highest-calibre guitars? George Lowden’s 40th Anniversary guitars come in a range of body shapes, but each has its special designation as an anniversary guitar, and each and every one has been built without compromise, and with heritage-grade tonewoods. The Brazilian Rosewood back and sides on this O-35x feature an electrifying grain pattern that caught our eye right out the gate. Lowden then paired that with a Redwood top for warmth and color, and Koa bindings and arm bevel to tie it together.
This is Lowden’s biggest box, which gives extra authority and presence to the voice, not to mention increased projection and sustain. George’s GL standard neck profile is a generously curved C, and when paired with a 25 5/8” scale length and 1 3/4” nut makes for an easy playing guitar that soaks up lowered tunings like bread does butter. This is a unique breed of flattop that responds well to both picks and fingers; the dynamic range allows for both aggressive and light attacks without compromising note clarity and definition.
Lowden’s 40th Anniversary O-35x sounds as good as it feels, and it feels as good as it looks. The complete picture.
