We’ve recently taken in two lovely Lowrey organs that I think are well worth a closer look: a Lowrey Symphony LE and the later Lowrey Symphony Showcase.
Both are superb instruments, and both would make a very serious upgrade if you’re currently playing something like a Ringway Maestro, Genos 2, or another home organ.
Our current special deal prices are:
Lowrey Symphony LE: £8,999
Lowrey Symphony Showcase: £10,999
And if you don’t have anything to part-exchange, we can offer even better outright purchase prices.
The Symphony LE has always been a very popular Lowrey.
It gives you a huge amount to work with, including 655 sounds, 286 rhythm styles, 308 overall presets and around 7,500 total setups.
For me, what makes these larger Lowreys so enjoyable is that you can get so much out of them without having to spend ages setting things up.
You can sit down, choose a style or preset, and very quickly get a big, polished sound around what you’re playing.
The Symphony LE does that extremely well.
The Showcase is the newer, upgraded version, and for me it’s the more exciting of the two.
It takes what was already good about the Symphony LE and adds quite a bit more.
You get 36 additional rhythm styles, taking the total from 286 to 322, including styles taken from Lowrey’s E Series organs and seven from the flagship Lowrey Pro.
There are also more overall presets, with 408 compared with 308 on the Symphony LE.
But it isn’t just the numbers that make the Showcase stand out.
It has a lovely extra-wide colour touch LCD screen, two side information screens, a virtual speaker bar and brushed-metal-style section panels.
You also get features including Fake It! and Pedal Magic, which are exactly the sort of things that make Lowrey organs so much fun to play.
Of the two, the Showcase is definitely my favourite.
It feels that bit more special when you sit down at it, and the newer presets and styles give you even more to explore.
Here’s a simple comparison:
| Feature | Symphony LE | Symphony Showcase |
|---|---|---|
| Sounds | 655 | 655 |
| Rhythms / Styles | 286 | 322 |
| Overall Presets | 308 | 408 |
| Total Setups | 7,500 | 7,570 |
| Song Setups | 882 | 882 |
Both organs are approximately:
53.5 inches wide
29.5 inches deep
45 inches high
So if you’ve already got space for a larger home organ, there isn’t much to choose between them physically.
This is where things get interesting.
We’re currently able to offer some very strong part-exchange figures against these organs.
For example:
| Your Instrument | Part-Exchange Allowance | Cost to Change to Symphony LE | Cost to Change to Symphony Showcase |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ringway Maestro | £7,000 | £1,999 | £3,999 |
| Yamaha Genos 2 with speakers | £5,000 | £3,999 | £5,999 |
| No part exchange | N/A | £7,499 | £8,999 |
Naturally, any part-exchange allowance depends on the condition of your own instrument, but this gives you a very good idea of the sort of figures we’re talking about.
If you don’t have an instrument to trade in, there are even better outright prices available.
You can buy the Symphony LE for £7,499, or the Symphony Showcase for £8,999.
For organs of this calibre, I think both represent excellent value.
We include:
We’ve been dealing with organs, keyboards and pianos for over 30 years, and I’ve always believed that the support after the sale is every bit as important as the sale itself.
If you get stuck with something, want help finding a feature, or just need a bit of advice, you can pick up the phone and speak to us.
0% finance is also available on these used organs, subject to status and the relevant finance terms.
If you’d like to talk about either organ, or you want me to work out what your own instrument might be worth in part-exchange, give us a call on 01295 266 788 or email sales@epianos.co.uk.
