Built with all AAAA woods- Sitka for the top and cherry for the sides and back, this guitar was meant to lead a new wood combination offering, but securing a reliable supply of the highest grade cherry proved challenging\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCherry as a Tone Wood \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eCherry on the back and sides sits closer to mahogany than to rosewood: focused midrange, a dry snap on the attack, and less low-end bloom than Indian or Honduran rosewood. Cherry tends to sound a little sweeter and more open than straight mahogany — clear trebles, enough warmth to keep a spruce or cedar top from getting thin, and a quicker response that suits fingerstyle and light-to-medium strumming. It doesn’t have rosewood’s overtone haze, so notes stay separated. On a well-built guitar it ages toward a honeyed, slightly glassy voice rather than getting darker and heavier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditional appointments include an abalone rosette, Pau Ferro binding, Madagascan Rosewood bridge, bone nut and saddle, Gotoh 510 tuners with ebony buttons, a book matched ancient bog oak faceplate, ebony fretboard, and a rosewood back strip to compliment the beautifully bookmatched cherry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lowden","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53033494118712,"sku":"317408","price":7000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0991\/8834\/3096\/files\/IMG_1960.jpg?v=1790441657","url":"https:\/\/treeboneguitars.com\/products\/lowden-o-35c-prototype-sitka-and-cherry","provider":"Tree Bone Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
