About This Listing

Cedar top, walnut back and sides. From George Lowden "The S23 is the first small bodied steel string I designed. I adjusted the soundbox geometry and voicing to accentuate bass – I knew in a concert sized body the treble would be good anyway. The S23 with its medium hard AAA walnut back and sides and cedar top is warm, very loud and well balanced.

Long scale at 25.5", with a 12 fret neck that moves the bridge down toward the center of the lower bout, giving this guitar more power and projection than you might expect from it's smaller body.

Be sure to check out the demonstration video in the photo array, courtesy of our good friend Doug Yeomans!
