:D
Lowden
I bought my Martin Norm Blake from this guy. His descriptions are dead on and and he was a pleasure to deal with. |

Location: Phoenix AZ | I don't know about all Lowden's (I would imagine there are some dogs, as with any brand, ovamas included), but to this day Jeff's cedar top Lowden is one the very finest guitars I have ever heard.
Stephen, there is a big blue button the middle of the ebay screen. Just go ahead and click on it. Consider it your duty on behalf of all of us.

I bought the S23C Lowden and it is so cool that I am not sure my heart could take on another one!
However, it would go nicely with a Martin/Collings/Tak/Original Slothead.
Don't you agree? :rolleyes: |

Location: Phoenix AZ | Come on T28, that would be stupid. We can only play one guitar at a time, right?
Actually my favorite passtime is to set up a bunch of stands in a semicircle and place guitars on theme and just go from one to the other inhaling the fine smells. Mahogany, cedar, rosewood, spruce, etc. It's all good. "Honk, honk", Oh the wife must have just gotten home from soccer duty in the Rover ...

| Myrtlewood is fantastic. I have a Breedlove Northwest and the sound is...is...it makes your loins quiver. And I suppose if that's what you're after it's a good thing.

And that is not up for discussion. |

I'm not drinking for the three days, to avoid the possibility of an impulse buy... At $3500 (though worth every dime) I can't afford to have my inhibitions lowered. |
