Hey, thought I’d say hi and introduce myself!

 I’m Richard, longtime couch guitarist…used to play acoustic Sunday sessions in a couple of bars in Newcastle quite a long time ago.

 I play steel string acoustic only and just had a new one delivered last week, I’ll share a couple of pictures of my brand new Lowden F25. Cedar top with rosewood back and sides. She sounds awesome, very clean with incredible sustain.

hope you like it!

Good afternoon, @R32, and ...

 

 

Plenty to read and amuse you here, and lots to learn and share. 

[R32]

Thanks so much! I’m always happy to learn and share if I have anything useful to add! I’m about to embark on building my first acoustic but have zero skills with woodworking…I’m looking forward to sharing the journey - and hopefully pick up a few tips on the way!

cheers,

Nice Lowden.

[R32]

Cheers, still sounds very crispy and new, that should change over the next few months though

Welcome to the site Richard. Lovely guitar. Lowdens are made quite near to me.

Thanks! I’ve wanted one for ages but kept being drawn towards Martin dreadnoughts…but not this time!

Very pretty guitar
