Lowden S-35W | Figured Walnut - Figured Walnut

Introducing the Lowden 35 Series S-35W Acoustic Guitar, a masterpiece of craftsmanship designed for the discerning musician who demands nothing but the best. This guitar is a testament to the artistry and dedication that goes into creating an instrument of unparalleled quality. With its exquisite details and exceptional tonal capabilities, the S-35W is sure to captivate both your senses and your audience.

At the heart of the 35 Series is a commitment to excellence. Each guitar is meticulously handcrafted using the finest tone woods, ensuring a level of tonal richness and complexity that is simply unmatched. The back and sides are crafted from Figured Walnut, a wood known for its bright and articulate sound, stunning rippled colouration, and exquisite punchiness and warmth. When paired with the non-traditional choice of Figured Walnut for the soundboard, the S-35W doubles down on these exquisite tonal attributes for a unique musical experience.

One of the most remarkable features of the S-35W is its small body shape, which defies expectations by offering astonishing volume and projection. While small guitars often suffer from a lack of volume and boxy sound, the S-35W breaks the mould with its bass response and sustain that rival much larger instruments. This is achieved through meticulous design and bracing techniques that optimise the instrument for a bass bias, resulting in a truly surprising sonic experience.

The attention to detail in the 35 Series is evident throughout the guitar. The Maple bindings add a touch of elegance to the instrument's appearance. Purflings adorn both the sides and the top, complemented by an exquisite abalone/pear wood rosette. The ebony fingerboard, bound in maple and ebony, provides a smooth playing surface that enhances your playing experience.

The neck of the S-35W features a 5-piece construction of mahogany and rosewood, providing both stability and tonal richness. The renowned GL standard neck profile offers a comfortable playing experience, with measurements that gradually increase from 45mm at the nut to 57mm at the 14th fret. This allows for effortless fretting and optimal string spacing, ensuring that every note you play feels natural and precise.

To further elevate the S-35W's performance and reliability, it is equipped with upgraded tuners in the form of gold Gotoh 510 machine heads. These tuners not only provide precise tuning stability but also add a touch of luxury to the guitar's appearance with their ebony buttons. Completing the package, the S-35W comes fitted with Lowden Light Gauge 12-53 strings, specifically chosen to enhance the guitar's tonal characteristics.

In summary, the Lowden 35 Series S-35W Acoustic Guitar is a testament to the art of lutherie. It combines the finest materials, meticulous craftsmanship, and innovative design to create an instrument that sets new standards in tone, playability, and aesthetics. Whether you're a professional musician or a dedicated enthusiast, the S-35W will inspire and empower you to reach new musical heights.
