50 Series

28851

This highly prized F-50 is the flagship of the Lowden range.

Hand-crafted with Mastergrade African Blackwood and Sinker Redwood, this collector's piece comes with abalone leaf fretboard inlays, 38-style abalone soundboard inlays, and inlay package two headstock and heel cap binding.

Sinker Redwood is a rare and prized tonewood, sourced from century-old logs that rested at the bottom of California rivers. Over time, these logs absorbed minerals that gave the wood its signature dark hue, tight grain, and remarkable responsiveness. The result? A warm, resonant tone with exceptional sustain and dynamic range.

African Blackwood boasts greater stiffness, hardness, and density than Brazilian Rosewood. As Brazilian Rosewood becomes increasingly scarce, African Blackwood is widely recognized as a true alternative. Its deep, chocolate-like hues and intricate grain patterns deliver exceptional tonal clarity, powerful projection, and rich resonance. As one of the few builders pioneering its use, Lowden makes this tonewood a signature choice.
