Lowden F20c

The Lowden F20c is a guitar that feels alive the moment you pick it up. Built around Lowden's F body, a generous grand auditorium shape with a smoothly rounded cutaway, it pairs a solid Sitka spruce top with solid mahogany back and sides to deliver a voice that is warm, woody and endlessly musical. This is a handmade instrument in the truest sense, crafted in Ireland by one of the most respected names in modern acoustic guitar building.

Every Lowden carries the design philosophy of George Lowden, who has spent decades refining how an acoustic guitar breathes and responds. At the heart of the F20c is Lowden's signature dolphin bracing, a pattern developed in house that lets the top move freely and gives these guitars their trademark bloom and sustain. Mahogany brings a focused, punchy warmth to the F body, with a strong fundamental and a natural clarity that makes every note easy to hear, whether you are strumming or playing intricate fingerstyle.

The craftsmanship runs through every detail. The five piece mahogany and rosewood neck is capped with an ebony fingerboard and a rosewood headstock overlay, while maple bindings and a layered rocklite, maple and mahogany rosette frame the satin natural finish with understated elegance. A generous nut width makes the F20c a joy for fingerstyle players, and the smoothly rounded cutaway opens up easy access to the upper frets. Gold Gotoh 381 tuners with ebony buttons keep it perfectly in tune, and the discreet LR Baggs Session VTC pickup means it is ready for the stage the moment you plug in. It comes with a hardshell case.
