It's a Lowden.
He bought it second hand, so I don't think he knows the original date himself, just that it's 'old'.

I had a beautifull Martin once, worth a grand, I got it for 600 in a closing down sale. Had to sell it to a friend of mine. I see it sometimes. Its difficult you know, seing her fondled by another man, the neck I used to caress, the body I used to rest on my knee.

I'm sorry, that was realy terrible.

Unfortunatly it was also true.Edited by: #Ian#
