George Lowden’s S-50 strikes the razor’s edge balance between small and large bodiies, retaining the power of a big box and the clarity and warmth of a 00 or 000. This S-50 from 2017 is a beautiful example of this balance, here in Madagascar Rosewood and Alpine Spruce. We love this guitar. The word that kept coming up for us while playing it was “Intimate.” As in, close, personal, a familiar voice in your ear. This S-50 has sweet trebles, and the kind of string-to-string balance that is crucial in a fingerstyle guitar. Plek’d for the previous owner, it plays like butter!

I have always loved the S model from Lowden Guitars. Small and very comfortable to hold with a slightly deeper body that has plenty of volume and body energy to please. Clear as a bell on every fret and a joy to play.
