Kent Nishimura
April 2017, at the age of 14, Kent attended for the first time the National Fingerstyle Guitar Competition's final national tournament in Japan, the 17th annual FINGERPICKING DAY 2017, and won in the competition as the youngest grand champion in history. His first album FIRST STEP moved not only many pro's pro musicians such as Tommy Emmanuel and Andy McKee but George Lowden who is a legendary luthier of Lowden Guitars. Mr. Lowden built up a brand new guitar for Kent after he asked Kent about his favorite woods for the top, side, and back of the guitar. As a result, 6 months later, Kent got a Lowden F-35 with an inlay of the letter KENT on the 12 frets as a gift from Mr. Lowden.
