The Wishlist - Bushmills X Lowden F-50 Limited Edition £8,500

Dream gear to beg, borrow and steal for…

The connection between music making and alcohol is, of course, well established, but the folk at Lowden Guitars and Bush mills Irish Whiskey are celebrating it in a way that might not have crossed your mind. The association here is not only the craft and experience that goes into making both whiskey and fine acoustic guitars, but wood as well – oak, to be precise – and, even more to the point, the oak from which whiskey barrels are made.
