Here’s a 2013 Lowden F-25X in east Indian rosewood with a red cedar top. You might characterize this one as a “player’s guitar,” it is solid but cosmetically has a few small dings in the top and at the edge of the binding, and another at the top edge of the headstock. It is in fine shape structurally and plays nicely, has opened up and sounds great. The cedar top has aged to a beautiful rich brown shade. The F is the mid sized Lowden, with the characteristic overtones, brilliant highs and endless sustain that Lowdens are known for. I sold this guitar new in 2013 and ordered it with a low profile neck, which is still a good-sized neck. Beautiful guitar. With original Hiscox case. This would be a $5000 guitar if I ordered it new today, so save yourself some money.
