Well, I played a similar Lowden at Lark Street Music about a year ago and have thought about it ever since. That one, an O32-C, sold immediately, and like you, wllee, I was kicking myself.

I have to tell you... my ex-husband is ALSO wllee. That is a little too weird...
Sorry about that. It's actually wI(eye)lee. But, if we got to share that guitar, it can be, or not be, whatever you want! :D

"When I bought my D25M 20+ years ago I had the chance to buy a Lowden too. I sweated over both for days. The Lowden was great but was a little more expensive (I can't remember now if it was $6XX or $4XX). The Guild was $3XX and sounded great but I have kicked myself many times over not getting the Lowden too. Oh well..."

wIlee - Clearly, the answer is to own one of each (see my sig!).

Beauty, Barb. My '91 010 custom (cedar/mahogany) isn't as good looking as yours, but it does ring like a bell. It also has the best feeling neck I've ever had in my hand. I know yours will bring you many hours of pleasure.

Sounds and looks terrific! Congratulations. I'd be completely lost on that dotless neck, though :oops:

cheers

Ross, the marker dots are on the edge of the fretboard - small and discrete and not that hard to get used to. It does impress people though when it appears you can play without them!
