A tag has been placed on George lowden, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add  on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. -- Finngall  talk  20:53, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * The problem is that none of the claims have links to reliable sources to prove them. Corvus cornix 23:41, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

The Eric Clapton website, www.whereseric.com has an article about a charity auction in 2004 held by Christies where Eric Clapton raised $7.5 million by selling his guitars. Lot 32, His 1996 George Lowden O32, guide price of $5,000-$7,000 sold for $41,825. Obviously a quality piece.

On http://www.ericroche.com/guitars.php the late Eric Roche does a run down of his equipment starting with Lowden Guitars.
 * Awesome. Add those to the article.  But you'll need a link for every single one of the names where it's claimed they use his equipment, or they'll get "citation-needed" tagged.  Corvus cornix 16:01, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
