S-22J Prototype (28297)

Jazz Series

28297

In 2024, three prototype S-22J guitars were built. Two were sent to a Lowden dealer - the third is being offered here. The S-22J was never put into full production and so this is a rare opportunity to secure a genuine '1 of 3' prototype model.

Featuring AAA grade Mahogany and Alpine Spruce tonewoods, maple bindings, and comes loaded with a workshop-fitted LR Baggs Session VTC pickup. 

The Lowden Jazz Series of guitars have been designed to feel comfortable and familiar to classical and steel string players alike, making it the ultimate 'cross-over' guitar. The neck has enough width to facilitate the nylon strings but at the same time the cambered fingerboard allows for a wide variety of playing styles.
