daniel duffy replied to daniel duffy's discussion queries in the group Lowden Players and Afficionados"I have checked- and you are correct, the guitar was surprisingly an F. Now he plays greenfields which are so good most mortals would explode if they played one- they're for god, andy mckee and thats about it!"
Forrest Anderson replied to daniel duffy's discussion queries in the group Lowden Players and Afficionados"Looks like an F to me (I have an F as well as an O-size). But I'm not sure. I couldn't find an easy way to confirm it one way or another on the Internet. I think he's playing something other than Lowdens now."

Hi guys- you seem the right people to ask something regarding lowdens- where's the best place/shop/website to find used ones in the UK?, and would an O or an F shape be best for playing in the style of andy mckee, don ross, antoine dufour, thomas leeb, preston reed etc? :) Cheers, DanielSee More

Jud Hair replied to daniel duffy's discussion restringing question"Also popularly known as the Taylor Method, measuring the strings and clipping them first is the only wasy to go IMHO."

Dan G. replied to daniel duffy's discussion Acoustic Baritones"Hi Daniel. Check out the Taylor Baritones - 6 & 8-string (middle strings are paired in octaves on the 8), solid Indian Rosewood b&s and solid Sitka top, bone saddle. If you like them you could save a lot of cash.
