Coda , Lowden guitars.

This is a real long shot, but just wondering if anyone here has played the Lowden F38 that has been on the Coda website for some time now ? It's not a shop I get to visit being a) at the other end of the country and b) a rare visitor to guitar shops if I'm totally honest.
I've been playing my 20 plus year old 032 a lot these last few days and remembering why I have had at least one Lowden in my life for well over 30 years now.
I played an O38 about 25 years ago and have been a little bit in love with the aesthetics and tone of that guitar ever since. I am toying with the idea of either finding one or getting in touch with Lowden to get one built, assuming that they still have the wood stash to do it.
I know well the differences between F and O series guitars, but would be interested in anyones up close and personal opinions on the Coda guitar. My preference is for an O but it's worth checking anyway. In terms of geography a trip across to NI would be a fairly easy drive and ferry trip once we get some semblance of normality, having done it many times before.

    The guys who run Coda are really nice to deal with - it's my local GAS emporium. Call them and have a chat - you can buy, try and return if you don't like it.

    Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!

    Thanks for that, that's really useful. Might need to check that guitar out.
