In this special episode of 'In Conversation With', George sits down with longtime friend, Pierre Bensusan - Mr DADGAD himself - to discuss their enduring partnership, the history of Lowden Guitars in France, and the inspiration behind Pierre's signature model guitars.
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.

The GL Electric Series originally came about when George Lowden was asked by Ed Sheeran to design an electric guitar for Snow Patrol frontman Gary Lightbody.

The result was the Lowden GL-10, combining the finest natural wood finishes with the impeccable craftsmanship and attention to detail associated with every Lowden Guitar.
