S-23

Lowden S-23 'Red Cedar / Walnut' Acoustic Guitar

Available at Acoustic Centre Melbourne

Includes Hardshell Case

The Lowden S-23 offers an intimate and all-enveloping playing experience. The Walnut back and sides with carefully selected Red Cedar top combination creates a delightfully rich, Celtic-infused character that will make you keep coming back for more.

The S-23 was the very first small-bodied steel string guitar that George Lowden designed. Part of the Original series of guitars from 1976, the design and build has changed little in over 45 years. George adjusted the soundbox geometry and voicing to accentuate the bass, knowing in a concert-sized body the treble would be good anyway. The S23 with its medium hard AAA Walnut back and sides and Red Cedar top is warm, very loud, and well-balanced.

Maple bindings, multi-wood top purfling, 5-piece Mahogany and Rosewood neck, Ebony fretboard and Rosewood bridge with a full satin finish complete this old-world all-wood design. Includes Lowden hardshell case.

We endeavour to show the actual instrument in stock whenever possible, but the guitar in stock may differ slightly from the one shown on our website. Materials used can look different from guitar to guitar, including timber grain and colour, parts colours and finishing. If an instrument is a one-of-a-kind or preowned guitar, the picture will always be of the actual guitar in stock, but production models may have slight variations to the picture shown.

If you're after a particular look, feel free to email us at info@acousticcentre.com.au or send us a message through our chat service to request photos of the actual guitar in stock. We are more than happy to send through pictures of all in-stock guitars, to make your choice easier.

Please note that returns will not be accepted for variations in timber grain /  colouring, finish variations and parts colouring, unless there is a fault with the instrument. If you have any questions at all regarding an instrument's appearance, just drop us a line - we're always happy to send photos, and if we have more than one instrument in stock you'll be able to choose the exact guitar that you receive!
