About Lowden Guitars
Lowden Guitars come from Downpatrick, Northern Ireland — a small town and a fifty-year obsession. George Lowden started building in 1974 and spent decades refining a voice that sounds like nothing else in the acoustic world: shimmering, layered, with sustain that seems to keep going long after a chord should have settled. Lowden became the fingerstyle player's shorthand long before Ed Sheeran put one on every stage; Pierre Bensusan, Eric Roche, and Alex de Grassi all spoke about Lowdens the way other players talk about their first car. The mystique is partly the geography, partly the sound, and entirely real.
About Guitar Gallery
Guitar Gallery is a Nashville-based online dealer specializing in fine handmade acoustic guitars, run out of South Nashville's Berry Hill music district. Their authorized-builder roster has the breadth few US shops match — Bashkin, Beauregard, Borges, Froggy Bottom, Greven, Lowden, McPherson, Olson, Osthoff, Petros, Sexauer, Tippin, Wingert, and dozens more, alongside a deep tail of vintage and used inventory from harder-to-find names like Traugott, Sobell, Klein, Wayne Henderson, and Dudenbostel. Every listing carries a consistent in-house recording — Shure SM81 or Neumann TLM 102 microphone, no EQ, no effects, mic placement held constant — so buyers can compare what each specific guitar actually sounds like rather than how it was captured. The active shelf rotates broadly across that roster rather than running deep on any single builder; the catalog as a whole is wider than it is tall.
