Lowden / F-50C Armrest Bevel Sequoia Redwood- Honduras Redwood, Inlaypackage II, GL Fingertsyle / 2013 / Guitar

Lowden F-50C (New) Bevel, Sequoia Redwood- Honduras Redwood, Inlaypackage II, GL Fingertsyle,

 

This Mastergrade F50C series with Armrest Bevel arrived today at our shop, now, every 50 series is special, but this one falls in the category, 'extra special'. Tone and looks of this guitar are breathtaking we can confirm. This guitar comes 'Fully Loaded' with many custom options, like cutaway, Bevel Armrest in Tasmanian blackwood, Inlay package II with Headstock binding, GL fingerstyle Neck with 45.5mm Nut width and 61mm (2 3/8") fingerspacing at the bridge, Honduras Rosewood and selected Sequoia Redwood, both selected Mastergrade (AAAAA) meaning they are selected on both looks and tone. We asked for the darkest possible Redwood. The bookmatched Honduras rosewood is also Pierre Bensusan's choice of wood, and of a AAAAA (style 50) quality that is rare to find, and considered one of the closest woods in tonal response to Brazilian rosewood and certainly among the finest we've ever seen on a guitar, Combine that wood with ancient Redwood and heaven breaks open. The hardly found Mastergrade Redwood is one of those scarce and unknown tonewoods that combine Stunning looks with a unique tone.

Officially known as "Sequia Semperviren Americana" the Redwood tree is known to be the largest tree found worldwide, only found in California. Many people know it from Cars driving through a Tunnel made in on of this Ancient Californian Trees. This tree can get very old, and George his wood comes from Natural fallen trees or old logs, that very likely sprung from seed somewhere in the 1400's or 1500's.(imagine that!) A nice thought is that this historical piece of wood is almost symbolic for modern American history, from the times Indians were the only native people in California, up till the moment it is used by one of the best guitarmakers in the world! You will have a hard time finding a more beautiful, rare and fabulous Lowden F style than this one, and yes you will have a hard time putting it down once you picked it up. It's powerful with great balance, subtle clarity, sweetness and warmth, all covered in a juice of impressive dynamics creating a true mastergrade experience. And then the bevel, well that's modern feature, very hard to sculpture, is pure comfort and I'm sure any guitarplayer can imagine why. The

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
