Acoustic guitar Atkin J-43 for sale
17 January 2023 - Portugal - Lisboa - Lisbon
The Atkin J-43 is handmade in Canterbury, Britain by Atkin Guitars. It is the best slope shoulder I have ever played. All handmade. I bought it from The Fellowship of Acoustics in December and am selling it way under the original price, so it's kind of a lifetime opportunity! :)
The guitar has been carefully aged by hand. It sounds like an old Gibson from the 30's. The top is baked sitka and solid mahogany back & sides. Santos rosewood fingerboard and bridge. Specs below.
all original paperwork and certificate included. Atkin hardcase.
please contact me: jbtordo@gmail.com
I am fully available for video calls to show you the guitar.
100% HAND MADE IN CANTERBURY - ENGLAND
The Forty Three is both direct and powerful, but with an easy-playing shorter scale length, it’s easy to see why this guitar has been favoured by so many singer-songwriters over the years. The big-bodied slope shoulder shape, combined with our Baked Sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides, delivers warm mids, solid lows and great definition. It’s a timeless acoustic guitar tone..
