Lowden guitars-where to buy?

Wailin

Tried X music and they only have 1 in stock plus were offering a pretty embarrassing price for my HD-28V, definitely won't be giving them my business. Any other places around Dublin, or further afield that would have a few Lowdens in stock?

Gaspode

Sound shop in Drogheda generally have a few Lowdens in stock.

Trade-ins are by their nature terrible deals. If you want to shift the Martin, sell it yourself.

Yeah I know, but I was a bit shocked at how bad this offer on the HD28v was. For a guitar that costs €3400 new and it's only a year old they were talking prices of €1100-€1200. But yeah, a trade in is out of the question.

That sounds quite good. I don't have experience in the music business, but take vat and an allowance for markup from 3400 and see what they are buying new stock at.

Your talking about a drop of €2200 on a 1 year old guitar, doesn't sound good to me!

Try George direct.

he always has a few sitting around....

Etc

Try Beat it Music in Dundalk or Jimi's, the Sound shop is usually good too. And as the previous poster said, call George
