Sheeran by Lowden S-03 Small Electro Acoustic, Indian Rosewood/Cedar

Sheeran by Lowden S-03 Small Electro Acoustic, Indian Rosewood/Cedar Overview

Lowden makes bespoke, high-end guitars in Ireland using the best materials and real craftsmanship to create guitars of exceptional quality. The ever-popular Ed Sheeran has teamed up with Lowden to make a new line of top-quality guitars, Sheeran by Lowden, which features 8 individual models with Lowden S Series and W Series body sizes, both of which have been used by Ed Sheeran on tour.

The S Series models have the popular Lowden S (small) body, making it great for travelling, taking between gigs, and any time you just want to pick up and play. Despite its smaller size, it produces a deep voice and clear projection and is ideal for singer-songwriters as the sound works well with vocals.

The Sheeran by Lowden S-03 has a 5-piece Indian Rosewood body that delivers deep lows as well as bright top end with more scooped mids and works well whether you’re fingerpicking or strumming. It has Lowden A-Frame bracing, and the top is made from cedar, which is traditionally used in classical guitars and delivers a darker, warmer, and fuller sound, with lots of character that improves with age. All the tonewoods used in this range are carefully selected from naturally felled trees, while another is planted in its place to make it sustainable.

The neck is made from mahogany which adds to the warmth and sustain of the body, is topped with a durable 20-fret ebony fretboard, as well as an ebony bridge. The nut and saddle are made from TUSQ, which produces notes that have more sustain with a clearer and sharper tone, lasting longer and being more reliable than bone nuts.

It also has a bevelled soundhole which gives great low-end control, and there’s an LR Baggs Element VTC pickup which reflects the natural dynamics of the guitar, delivering a superior warmth and natural balance of tone, and the controls are subtly mounted inside the soundhole making it easy to adjust your levels, and live performers can hook it up to an acoustic amp or PA system for gigs.

The S-03 is completed with chrome tuners, Lowden 12-53 strings, a natural finish and a gig bag so you’re ready to take it anywhere.
