Signature Series
Richard Thompson
It has been my great pleasure to get to know Richard over the years and to enjoy his playing!
At Lowden we only consider a signature model for someone who has played our guitars consistently for a long time Richard has been playing Lowden guitars for many many years and we are honored to introduce this model!
Richard chose this wood combination and other specifications because of the really full-bodied loud and clear response of Ziricote and cedar. — George

The Original Series captures the essence of what makes a Lowden guitar. Designed with George Lowden’s unique and original bracing, these guitars deliver the distinctive Lowden sound: full, warm, and dynamically responsive. With understated aesthetics and a focus on tonal purity, the Original Series is where our tradition of innovation and craftsmanship began.

In 2004 George decided that a series of guitars similar to the original series but with a couple of upgrades would be great to offer to the players who wanted the best tuners you can get on the one hand, but also had a little more detailing in the appointments in general. So the 35 series was born.

The 50 Series is where the Lowden team explore the limits of tonal and aesthetic refinement, using exclusively Master Grade tone-woods. Designed for players who value uncompromising quality, this series offers an exceptional level of customisation. The goal is simple: to create an instrument that exemplifies the finest craftsmanship the Lowden team can achieve.

The Lowden Jazz is fitted with an board pickup as standard. The soundbox is voiced for a really great acoustic response, and at the same time stiff enough to prevent the whole guitar from overreacting when played loud through a sound system.
