Key Features
Product Ref: 331603
The Lowden F38 is a masterfully handcrafted acoustic guitar that epitomizes the pinnacle of George Lowden's luthiery. Introduced in 1976, this model has become an iconic representation of Lowden's commitment to tonal excellence and aesthetic beauty.
At its core, the F38 features a mastergrade Red Cedar top paired with CITES-certified reclaimed Brazilian Rosewood back and sides. This combination yields a rich, complex tonal palette with immediate responsiveness, making it ideal for both fingerstyle and flatpicking techniques. The Red Cedar offers warmth and clarity, while the Brazilian Rosewood provides depth and sustain, resulting in a harmonious blend of overtones and projection.
The guitar's construction includes a 5-piece Mahogany and Rosewood neck, an Ebony fingerboard adorned with delicate Abalone 'Leaf' inlays, and a Rosewood bridge. The body is bound in figured Maple, complemented by Abalone purfling and an Abalone and Ebony rosette, adding to its visual allure. The Gotoh 510 Gold tuners with Ebony buttons ensure precise tuning stability.
Ergonomically, the F38 is designed for comfort, featuring a custom contoured Maple arm bevel that allows for extended playing sessions without fatigue. The guitar's dimensions, including a 650mm scale length and a 45mm nut width, provide a familiar and comfortable playing experience for a wide range of guitarists.
Each Lowden F38 comes with a custom hardshell case to protect this exquisite instrument. As a testament to its quality and heritage, the F38 remains a sought-after model among discerning musicians and collectors alike.
