- Description

Balanced power. This 2018 Lowden Baritone is one of George's BAR-50 F/F models, boasting an expansive multiscale fan fret setup of 28 inches down the 26 3/8 inches. The result is lots of power on the bottom end, but sweetness and easy playability on the top--the best of both worlds for a baritone. Moreover, the Lowden team upfitted this model with master grade African Blackwood back and sides and master grade Adirondack Spruce, which is one of our alltime favorite tonewood combinations. The result is glassy note definition and lots of power. The body is tied up with Tasmanian Blackwood everywhere for a striking look. Satin finish throughout for excellent neck feel, and a body that won't blind your audience under the glare of the bright lights.

I love baritones, and I love African Blackwood. Paired here with Adirondack Spruce you get a voice that is rich with beautiful midrange but also has power and drive. All things that add up to a great baritone guitar.
I've got one of these, and I play it all the time. Get one for yourself! A Lowden baritone that plays like butter and is balanced across the registers, clean and powerful and complex. - Accessories
