Lowden Original Series F-20 Mahogany/Sitka Spruce Acoustic Guitar, Serial# 26906

The Original Series was the very first Lowden range from 1976, just as the ‘O’ model is George’s original Lowden body design. Although the medium-sized ‘F’ and concert-sized ‘S’ have been added to the range since then, the Lowden standard of passionate commitment to no compromise was well and truly set.

The ‘F’ model was first designed in 1982 and then redesigned in 2003. The smaller soundbox shape produces more projection and midrange response than the ‘O’ making it perfect for flat pickers but it has also found its way into the hands of finger-style players, blues guitarists and others. The soundbox geometry is designed, and the bracing voiced to have a flat bias, favouring neither treble nor bass.
