2022 Atkin L36 Heavy Aged – £2499

NEW ARRIVAL Here we have another example of Atkin producing a guitar with vintage look and feel and aged tone. The Thirty Six is unashamedly based on a 1936 Gibson L-00, from their Golden Age of acoustics. With a Torrefied Sitka Spruce top and Mahogany back and sides, the guitar has a super thin aged nitro finish allowing the whole body to really resonate. The Spruce / Mahogany combination, give a rich tone, with great clarity, and the body size gives a really smooth, balanced sound. Although the guitar is pretty versatile, it’s a blues fingerpicker’s dream. The guitar has a very comfortable body size, with great playability. It’s in good, ‘Heavy Aged’ condition, with visible playwear already noticeable as the finish is designed to show. It comes in it’s original deluxe hard case.
