That was very nice. But I'm sure it sounds all backward on a lefty. :)

I used to go to Mandolin Bros and play the Lowdens, wonderful guitars, and I'm a hardcore vintage Martin, and very vintage Gibson snob. The Lowdens are totally different but I wouldn't hesitate to buy one. They were consistently good too, every one I played was well balanced, and the strange woods like Pear sound wonderful too. If I had more income I'd own a Lowden.
