Has anyone here bought a Lowebro? I ran across them this morning and thought they have a very cool lo-fi tone to them. I'd love to hear the thoughts of anyone who has one.
There are a few videos here:

I've got one, it's a lot of fun especially at campfires and the like. You can't beat the built-in beer holder. very cool lo-fi sound with a reverb-e nature but not a lot of sustain. Recording found on my myspace page:

You should get one just because old lowe kicks a$$! They sound pretty good to me. Very deep south _________________ GFI D10, Fender Steel King, Hilton Vpedal,BoBro, National D dobro, Marrs RGS |

My main question is, how is the intonation? It's a bit hard to tell in the videos. I know that it's supposed to be lo-fi but it would be hard to deal with if it couldn't play in tune. |

The bridge floats, so if the intonation gets wonky, you just tap it. Longer scale length so lot's of room to compensate. I haven't really had a problem with mine, and your right, old lowe is a cool dude.
