I owned a Lowden O 10 (earlier version speced the same) for a year. It was a 1993 model. While it sounded great (clear and responsive, maybe best suited for fingerstyle), I never bonded with it. This was due to the slightly over 1 3/4 " nut, and a bit too big neck for my taste. This will apply to most Lowdens, and is a personal matter. To me, it had too much of a "classical guitar"-feeling. You may like this, or not. If you like the feel of your Lowden, it might be perfect for you. I'm a singer songwriter who both strum and fingerpick, and I liked it more for fingerpicking. For strumming, I prefer my D 35 or J 45. It is a BIG guitar, so it will feel very different from your S. It wasn't for me. You must play one again to find out if it suits you. Good luck

I'm not clear on how Lowden model numbers work so without googling I'm not sure which is which. I am seriously thinking about an old L32c and seeing how it compares with my Avalon 320. I can highly recommend Avalon as superb guitars at a very good price if you like the Lowdown vibe.
