Based on one of my personal favorite models and recommended to me by Stan at Dowina - The Padauk Deluxe benefits from hand selected premium grade padauk with semi gloss back and sides.

The Dowina Padauk GAC is another acoustic guitar that leaves me beyond words. You cannot "just" talk about the specification of the guitar because this guitar goes so far beyond the sum of its parts. Its a master class in "attention to detail" and "artistry". Every natural color flowing into the next - like a work of art. Everything has been thought through to ensure you not only have a guitar that has tone I can only TRY and explain but visuals that are second to none in any boutique brand I have ever sold.

This guitar goes so far beyond any Lowden I have ever sold at 3 times the price.

Tonally you have the dolomite spruce which is bright and clear combined with the strongest presence of padauk. The Padauk model has what I would call an incredibly strong presence - full toned, big bodied but INCREDIBLY balanced.

Its not a rosewood tone with thundering bottom end bright tops with not so much middle - It just seems strong throughout the register.

As I say its very hard to describe and I believe quite a unique and exciting tone that I believe any player would have a "wow!" moment with!!
