Introducing the Lowden Jazz Collection, featuring the exquisite S-32J model. Crafted by the renowned guitar maker George Lowden, this nylon string "cross-over" guitar is a true masterpiece designed to cater to a variety of playing styles. Whether you're a classical purist or a steel-string aficionado, the S-32J offers a harmonious blend of comfort, versatility, and exceptional tone.
The Jazz model is based on Lowden's iconic 'S' shape, but it is meticulously voiced to provide a remarkable acoustic response without overwhelming amplification. This guitar is a testament to Lowden's commitment to uncompromising quality and attention to detail. The Original Series, from which this model draws inspiration, showcases understated aesthetic appointments like the seven-piece wood rosette, single piece binding, and three-piece purfling on the top. The rosewood front-head facing and ebony fingerboard further exemplify the elegance and sophistication of this instrument.
At the heart of the S-32J lies a carefully selected combination of tonewoods. The East Indian Rosewood back and sides infuse a jazzy fullness into the tone, delivering rich bass notes that are sought after by discerning musicians. The soundboard is crafted from Alpine Spruce, a material known for its exceptional tonal qualities. Lowden guitars made with spruce tops are designed to mature and improve over time, resulting in a guitar that becomes even more vibrant and resonant with each passing year.
The neck of the S-32J is a work of art on its own. Constructed with a five-piece Mahogany design, it features a Walnut centre stripe and two Purpleheart splices. This neck offers the perfect balance between comfort and versatility, allowing classical and steel-string players to explore a wide range of playing styles. The extended curved-end Ebony fingerboard adds a touch of elegance and facilitates effortless playability.
Equipped with Gotoh Classical Gold tuners with Ebony buttons, the S-32J ensures precise and reliable tuning. And for amplified performances, the LR Baggs Session VTC amplification system is integrated seamlessly into the guitar. Inspired by the expertise of Nashville's legendary studios, the Session VTC brings studio-grade audio quality to your live performances. With its tape-like saturation and touch-sensitive EQs, this system allows your guitar's best qualities to shine through the mix, while suppressing problematic frequencies commonly encountered on stage.
In summary, the Lowden S-32J from the Jazz Collection is a masterpiece of craftsmanship and artistry. From its carefully selected tonewoods to its impeccable design and exceptional amplification system, this guitar offers a truly unparalleled playing experience. Whether you're a classical virtuoso or an eclectic musician, the S-32J will inspire and delight you with its natural and full tone, unmatched responsiveness, and the timeless beauty of its design.
