For sale is a Lowden F-35 acoustic guitar, built in 2000 (serial number 11424), featuring a cedar top with amazique back and sides. This is a high-grade example from a particularly respected era of Lowden production.

The guitar is in excellent condition, both structurally and cosmetically. The cedar top has aged beautifully, delivering a warm, responsive, and nuanced voice with excellent balance and sustain — highly suited to fingerstyle playing, while still offering strong dynamic range when strummed. The amazique back and sides contribute clarity, depth, and a distinctive visual character rarely seen on F-35 models.

Playability is outstanding: the neck is straight, frets are in excellent condition, and the action is comfortable across the fingerboard. No cracks, repairs, or structural issues. Only minimal, age-appropriate cosmetic marks. Please see attached photo-small chip to binding ringed.

The guitar is supplied with a Hiscox flight case, offering premium protection for storage and transport and reflecting the level of care this instrument has received.

This guitar has been owned from new and carefully maintained in a smoke-free home. I am the original owner and can supply the original purchase invoice for verification. The instrument has been properly stored and transported in a Hiscox flight case and has never required structural repairs. Happy to answer detailed questions, provide additional photos, or arrange a local inspection in Sydney.

Australian shipping only: Currently I can only ship within Australia given the hike in international rates and tariffs applied to certain markets which makes the shipping and insurance cost prohibitive.
