New Lowden S-35C Figured Walnut/Red Cedar
George told me about this special set of Walnut that was available and I immediately requested it for this guitar. It is simply stunning, there is a beautiful light center section and symmetrical figuring that is bookmatched. This set of woods really sets this guitar apart.

The smaller S body size from Lowden is really wonderful. It’s a beautiful intimate sound that boasts good volume and power thanks to the deeper body. The articulation is marvelous and the comfort is welcome. We ordered this one in Cocobolo and Cedar, one of our favorite tonal combinations from George and the gang.

Walnut guitars from George Lowden are famous for their wonderful woody nature and punchy voice. Paired here with Redwood you get a warm and round quality as well. Just a hint of more mellowness beneath the Lowden brilliance and power. The Redwood top is superb with beautiful, straight grain. This one is in perfect condition, not a mark.

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.
2002 Lowden O-32 Indian/Sitka
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. The condition is excellent and the tone is everything you’d expect from a Lowden. Equally adept at fingerstyle or strumming and it can take hard hitting and keep giving back.

The combination of Cocobolo Rosewood and Cedar results in a guitar that is at once responsive and punchy but also full and rich. Cocobolo is regarded as one of the premiere rosewoods in use today. The cutaway F model is by far our most requested Lowden configuration and for good reason it’s extremely versatile and easy to hold for hours and hours.

Here’s a like-new Lowden in Mahogany/Cedar that offers the classic Lowden voice at an excellent price. The high notes on this guitar are particularly big and sweet. In typical Lowden fashion it’s happy being fingerpicked or strummed hard. No wonder Richard Thompson’s been playing these for years.
2002 Lowden O-25c, Indian Rosewood/Cedar
A lovely number from the fine Lowden team! This 2002 Lowden O-25c has been played through, broken in, and opened up–wide open. Such a lovely voice for just about every application. Indian Rosewood body with Cedar on top, and an L.R. Baggs M80 soundhole pickup.

This 1a Rio graduated at the top of its class in 2001 from Casimiro Lozano—and it’s gone up, up, and up since then. We love the powerful, warm, present and awake flavor of this Lozano, especially in the articulate, defined bass register. Trebles and mids pair up smoothly to fill out the voice, with a sweetness in the upper mids that comes out under a light attack. Being Lozano’s Rio model, this 1a has been upgraded with lovely Brazilian Rosewood and a Spruce top, 650mm scale, Spanish Cedar neck, and French Polish finish throughout for maximum resonance. Being 20 years old, this 1a Rio has opened up oh so handsomely, and has been well cared for with only some play marks on top.

Riches, indeed. This is a fabulous example of Casimiro Lozano’s mastery from 2003 decked out with Brazilian Rosewood as part of the 1A Rio designation.

Gold Schaller tuners with white rollers perform smoothly and squeak-free; and this 1A Rio weighs in under four pounds.

Livewire, folks! We’ve landed an explosive Kenny Smith model from Randy Lucas that dates back to 1999, and has opened up handsomely in the past 20 years. Based on Kenny Smith’s 1935 D-18, this signature model is outfitted with Mahogany back and sides, Adirondack Spruce on top, and a K&K Pure Mini (with vintage 1/8” input). Thistle headstock, Waverly tuners, and a sweet flatpicker’s setup with lots of saddle left.
The voice is clean and loud, plenty of bark in the bass but well balanced across the strings for an even response. This Randy Lucas KS speaks for itself, in no uncertain terms.
