Based in the Belfast area of Northern Ireland, George Lowden revolutionised the world of steel-string guitars in the mid-1970s with a bold and deeply personal concept: a steel-string acoustic guitar with projection to rival the finest concert classicals, coupled with remarkable power and sustain. Lowden guitars immediately drew attention and have continued ever since to captivate players seeking unmatched tone and aesthetics.
The Lowden F35 GR/AS represents the very finest of Irish luthiery. Crafted for musicians who seek both powerful projection and refined harmonic depth, it belongs to the prestigious 35 Series, dedicated exclusively to the most resonant and visually striking tonewoods. This model pairs an Alpine spruce top, prized for its clarity, finesse and responsiveness, with Guatemalan rosewood back and sides, a tonewood whose deep, luxurious character closely recalls the revered Brazilian rosewood.
Lowden’s signature F body shape provides the ideal balance of playing comfort, sensitivity and acoustic breadth. The five-piece mahogany and maple neck, with its sleek profile, offers smooth, stable playability, while the ebony fingerboard and bridge contribute to extended sustain and tonal precision. Aesthetic details include koa, maple and walnut purfling, an abalone rosette, and a hand-applied satin finish, each element a mark of refined craftsmanship. Whether you favour intricate fingerstyle, delicate arpeggios, or bold rhythmic strumming, this guitar delivers a nuanced and emotionally rich response with remarkable precision.
