Based in the Belfast region of Northern Ireland, George Lowden revolutionized the world of folk guitars in the mid-1970s with a fiercely innovative and personal concept: a steel-string guitar with a projection comparable to the finest classical concert guitars, combined with incredible power and sustain. Unlike the American guitars of that time, which required a more vigorous pick attack due to their compression, Lowden guitars immediately caught attention and have continued to captivate guitarists in search of unparalleled sound and aesthetics.

Lowden is known for its subtle use of majestic-sounding woods, and for making guitars of timeless design. This one is the perfect illustration. Its Alpine spruce top offers stunning resonance and powerful projection, while its exotic Ziricote back and sides add a touch of sophistication and beauty to its appearance.

With a rich, piano-like response and incredible definition, it's equally at home on picking registers and chord strumming. Bass is deep and warm, mids are expressive and highs have a captivating brilliance. Every aspect of this guitar is meticulously crafted, from bridge to finish, reflecting Lowden's absolute commitment to quality and aesthetics, and the result is simply stunning.
