"I always felt that a 630mm scale for a small bodied guitar was more in proportion (than Lowden's 650mm standard scale length) and would be likely to lower the string tension slightly and help to create a slightly softer voicing."
George Lowden
This is one of those guitars that, once you pick it up, you won't want to put down. It is a really involving guitar to play, hugely versatile, and with Cocobolo back and sides (as close as you can get to Brazilian Rosewood but without the huge price tag) it is increadibly resonant and responsive.
"The S Series features a small compact body, more akin to that of a classical guitar, with a standard Lowden neck. The soundbox profile and voicing of the S series guitars have been designed to accentuate the bass response and remove the naturally over bearing upper middle frequencies associated with a concert sized guitar.
This has resulted in an unusually
'big' sound for a small guitar with powerful trebles beautifully balanced by a compact but warm bass register; an instrument with truly amazing projection. This series will appeal to anyone wanting an extremely vibrant guitar in a small body size." - Lowden Guitars
