Lowden / Pierre Bensusan Old Lady Birthday Special #24 Of 70 / Guitar

Next year, George Lowden turns 70 and that needs to be celebrated! That's why Lowden makes a limited edition of 'Birthday Special' guitars as a tribute to their 'Founding Father' George Lowden. It is therefore only logical that they chose this 'Old Lady' to be a part of this run. George and Pierre Bensusan go back a while. In 1978, George Lowden made the first guitar for Pierre, and that was the start of a successful relationship born from passion for the guitar, resulting in several 'signature' guitars. That's why in the following years this instrument got the nickname "Old Lady", because it all started with this old lady. The Cuban mahogany back and sides are paired with a red cedar top. This combination of tonewoods gives this guitar the soul and warm, rich character of the original and also mimics the warm and familiar look of the original. The "Low Profile" neck is 5-piece and made of mahogany and maple with fingerstyle dimensions. Furthermore, this Old Lady is finished by beautiful understated details such as flamed maple bindings, complex purflings, rosewood headstock overlay and a special LXX inlay at the 12th fret and 70th anniversary label on the inside of the guitar. Including sturdy Hiscox hardshell case and certificate of authenticity.

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
