The S-34C is a new model in Lowden’s Original Series featuring Koa back and sides and a Sitka Spruce top with soft venetian cutaway. This is a great paring of tonewoods in this line that George Lowden experimented with years ago but has finally re-introduced as a standard model. Built like a 32 model but with the new upgraded Hawaiian Koa body and figured Maple bindings. Stage ready with the LR Baggs Anthem pickup system factory installed.The Lowden S-34C is a versatile short scale build that combines old-world charm with top-notch craftsmanship. The aesthetics are more in common with classical guitars, with an uncluttered appearance, avoidance of synthetic materials (with the exception of the clear pickguard), simple rosette and purfling, and a fretboard free of inlays. Along with the Koa back and sides, Sitka Spruce top and Maple bindings, the S-34C features a 5-piece Mahogany and Rosewood neck, Ebony fretboard, Mahogany, Maple and Rosewood purflings, Rosewood pinless bridge with bone split saddle and more.An exemplary example of the original series small body guitar, George Lowden adjusted the soundbox geometry and voicing to accentuate the bass. Knowing that in a concert sized body the mids and treble would be good because of the size, the results of the S-34C is a warm, sweet, very loud and well balanced build.Includes Ameritage hardshell case and Lifetime Warranty.Free shipping in the continental United States.–
