This custom Lowden was built for recording artist and Fingerstyle Champ Todd Hallawell. As Todd tells it “I picked out the Brazilian in Arizona and sent it to George. I was on my way to gigs in Poland and Germany when we got a call from telling me that he was going to ship the guitar to me. So, we diverted to Ireland for a few days so I could fly home with it myself. George gave me that guitar when Kay and I were staying at his house. It surprised me a little when he handed it to me. Turns out he had been working on it at his own shop. I thought I was going to pick it up at the factory.” This is clearly a special Lowden crafted for a pro player. The wood is spectacular and it is louder and stronger than any we’ve played. This has that special something extra.

Here’s we specifically asked for some amazing Koa and boy did we get it. Just look at the photos and you’ll see the beautiful fiddle back flame. The color is also really special, dark and rich golden-brown. The voice is also dark and rich and lovely blend of Koa and Cedar. A hard back and a soft top always works well. Like most Lowdens this is a great strummer and picker.

George Lowden’s model O design is a big, full sounding guitar with the trademark Lowden power and brilliance. This particular guitar has a slinky action and open voice.

In the summer of 1961, at the age of ten, George began what was to be a lifelong pursuit to build guitars, which would inspire players with their sound, feel and looks. “My friend Alan French and I made two guitars” with the help of his dad, who was a boat builder in Groomsport, County Down. The “guitars” had fishing line for strings, bent over nails for frets, and a square soundbox!!” – George Lowden “I learned everything the hard way. I had no one to teach me how to avoid the obvious pitfalls. I tried new shapes, bracing designs and many other ideas and gradually emerged from the ‘hard school’ of self taught guitar making.” – George Lowden.
We are proud to represent both George Lowden’s personally crafted guitars and his new George Lowden small production factory in Ireland. George has parted from Avalon and is now producing small numbers of the highest quality instruments without compromise.
