Description

The Sheeran S-04 is not just an acoustic guitar; it's a harmonious blend of artistry and craftsmanship, designed in collaboration with Ed Sheeran and Lowden Guitars. This concert acoustic-electric guitar is crafted for musicians who crave rich acoustic tones with the flexibility of amplified sound. The S-style small body with a cutaway offers an inviting playing experience, allowing effortless access to higher frets for those intricate solos and advanced techniques.

Its solid Sitka spruce top combined with grained walnut back and sides creates a balanced tone imbued with crisp highs and resonant lows. Whether you're strumming gently or picking energetically, the S-04 ensures each note is delivered with clarity and warmth. The neck, made from mahogany, and the ebony fingerboard offer a smooth and comfortable playing surface, while the polished frets prevent snagging, making it ideal for extended play sessions.

Equipped with the LR Baggs EAS VTC pickup system, this guitar provides natural acoustic projection when amplified, with a soundhole-mounted preamp for intuitive control. Whether you're on stage or in a studio, you can fine-tune your sound to perfection, ensuring you stay in tune and feedback-free.

The Sheeran S-04 also comes with a custom gig bag for safe and convenient transport, featuring padded handles and ample storage pockets for all your accessories. With every component—from the Graph Tech TUSQ nut and saddle to the original Lowden strings—chosen for quality, this guitar is built to be your lifelong musical companion.

Critic Reviews

Review: Sheeran by Lowden W02 & S04 acoustics

guitar.com

The Sheeran S-04 by Lowden is a commendable blend of affordability and quality, offering aspiring musicians a taste of the Lowden experience without the hefty price tag. Its solid Sitka spruce top and laminated walnut back and sides ensure a pleasing tonal balance, while the LR Baggs pickup system provides versatility. The build quality impresses with a sleek design, though the lack of intricate inlays and use of laminates might disappoint purists. While the S-04 delivers a solid performance both acoustically and plugged in, it may lack the depth of full-fledged Lowden models. Ideal for Ed Sheeran fans and budget-conscious players, this guitar punches above its weight with a commendable mix of style and sound.
