Description
The name of this 2005 Lowden O-32C breaks down to the Original Series, 32 trim (Spruce and Indian Rosewood), and a soft Venetian Cutaway. It has a huge voice. The 'O' is a letter, not a Zero digit!
This Lowden O-32C example is in very good condition with very light wear to the frets and satin finish. It plays well with a very comfortable action, and plenty of saddle height for future adjustments. It has a typically Lowden depth, yet with sparkling highs and fully present mids, and plenty of projection.
Overall this is an excellent instrument, in very good condition with great tone and quite comfortable to play.
Sold with its original Hiscox lightweight flight case with humidifier for maximum protection.
