2014 Lowden Richard Thompson Signature Model Figured Ziricote/AAAA Red Cedar
Says Red Molly to James, ‘Well, that’s a fine motor…guitar.’ This is a guitar, not a motorcycle, but a mighty fine one indeed. You know, for it to bear the name Richard Thompson, it’s bound to be quite a delightful instrument. From Lowden, we have a 2014 Richard Thompson Signature, also an F model. This Irish beast is decked out in AAAA-Red Cedar and Figured Ziricote. What a sonorous combination this is. All of the George Lowden features you know and love are here, very well-loved and cared for, and ready for years and years of more music-making.

George Lowden’s S body is petite, and offers an easy playing experience. It also affords an immediacy and intimacy to the voice that’s particularly present in this 2021 S-50. Such a unique sound. With Cocobolo and “Driftwood” Sinker Cedar on top, this one looks gorgeous as well—and these woods also help fill out the voice and add even more warmth and power to the overtones. The short, 24 3/4” scale is very easy on the hands, and adds roundness to the trebles. This Lowden is not one to let slip away; you won’t want to let go.

A finer Lowden we’ve yet to see. This rare Master Series F Model comes from George Lowden himself, from the master’s hands to ours. To your hands next! Pairing Figured Koa back and sdies with a Sinker Redwood top, George combines a dry/woody fundamental with sweet warmth for a very complete, engrossing voice. Seriously, this Master Series has exquisite note definition and clarity, the kind that allows big chords to ring out in all their glory, and lead runs crisp and defined. For creature comfort, an arm bevel has been added, and to set off the Sinker Redwood top George trimmed out with sparkling green-blue Abalone (matched at the rosette), and enlisted Larry Robinson for a delicate stem and butterfly at the 12th fret.
Ready to own a unique slice of the Lowden story? This 2022 Master Series from George Lowden is the centerpiece you’ve been looking for.

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.
