"I designed this mid sized comfortable guitar around 1982 to provide a guitar which had a tighter more focused sound. The "O" is wide, wide, wide, but the "F" has been created to respond to a variety of playing styles equally well with a more defined focus."
George Lowden

This F10 is one of Lowden's basic models - but there is absolutely nothing basic about any Lowden guitar, I've heard more superlatives used about them than any other brand on the market. The Cedar / Mahogany combination is my personal favourite, with the lush, warm tones that Cedar gives, and the rich intensity that mahogany produces, this guitar will inspire you, and then keep on inspiring you."The F models were originally designed with a slightly flatter body than the O series and feature a smaller soundbox with a standard Lowden neck.

This design produces a more compact, subtle sound, while retaining the characteristic clarity and brilliance of the O series. This is achieved by tuning the bracing pattern to emphasize the lower frequencies to compliment the natural vibrancy of the upper and mid ranges, creating in the F series an instrument of unequalled versatility for finger picking and flat picking styles." - Lowden Guitars" - George Lowden
