Lowden / S10 Jumbo / 1985 / Guitar

Nowadays, the S refers to a small size body at Lowden, but in 1985 it was used for the Jumbo model. Between 1980 and 1985, Lowden guitars were made in Japan by S. Yaire under the license of George Lowden. When the demand for acoustic instrument fell drastically, George decided to start a new workshop in Ireland and train new craftsmen. The serial numbers also started again from 0 and were written on a new oval label with a green edge. This S10 has that newer label with the serial number '196'. This means that it is one of the earlier guitars George built in Ireland and is therefore very rare. It has the characteristics we still find on Lowden guitars today, for example the wooden binding and purflings, 'Dolphin' pattern bracing and of course the impressive quality and sound! Through the years this S10 has mainly gotten cosmetic traces of wear and tear, but it does not have any cracks. Besides this, only the pickguard has been replaced. The condition is very good and it comes in the original hardshell case.

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.
