Among the multitude of instruments available today, a few stand out as true classics—guitars with a distinctive character and voice that have stood the test of time. One of these is the Lowden O-50. Northern Irish luthier George Lowden began building the model (then designated as a model S) in 1976, and the current model remains very close to the original. Lowden now builds a full line of guitars using several body sizes and a full range of wood options, but we were excited to check out the O-50, the latest incarnation of the guitar that put Lowden on the map.
