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 The Fellowship of Acoustics
The Fellowship of Acoustics (TFOA) is a destination acoustic shop in Dedemsvaart, eastern Netherlands, run by Rudi Bults and his family since 2001 — what started as a barn-side business has grown into one of Europe's largest specialty guitar shops, housed since 2015 in a former town hall ("Villa Dina") that holds upwards of a thousand guitars. From the start, TFOA bet on selling worldwide in English from a small Dutch town, focused entirely on quality handmade instruments rather than mass-market volume. The villa houses retail, a luthier workshop with their "Gold Standard" setup and a PLEK machine for precision fret work, plus a small theatre and a music school under the same roof. Their boutique acoustic shelves run deep on Bourgeois, Collings, Santa Cruz, Lowden, Furch, Goodall, and Huss & Dalton, alongside a strong vintage and consigned catalog.
