That is a breathtaking guitar! I love the way the satin finish compliments both the front and back of the guitar - really shows off the tonewoods. Can't wait to hear your review!

Zee, that is really sharp! I agree with SF, the satin finish looks really nice with the woods and the appointments. Everything about it is top notch. Enjoy your newest guitar!

Stunning! Agreed. The satin finish works perfectly. The bookmatch figuring might be the best I've ever seen. Lowden's to my ears sound like no other. Keeper man!
