African Blackwood
The Baritone Fan Fret
Originally released in 2017, the first Baritone Fan Fret models featured African Blackwood paired with Sinker Redwood. It is now available to order in a variety of wood combinations throughout the 35 and 50 Series. Contact your Lowden dealer of choice for more information.
“When designing this model I changed the scale length of one of our normal Fan Fret guitars so the bass scale length changed from 680mm to 710 and on the treble scale from 635 to 670. Due to the extra scale length you will get extra depth to the tone and in some ways, slightly extra power..a bit like the difference between a Baby Grand and a Concert Grand piano.”
