Atkin J-43 Reserve | The Music Emporium

TME is happy to welcome Atkin Guitars to our fold! What makes us sit up and take note, with so many great instruments already in our showroom? Simply put ~ sound. Atkin's unique scalloped bracing configuration and super-thin aged lacquer finish result in a guitar that's surprisingly open and big-sounding (they've got a lot more oomph in the low end than you'd expect). And if you've longed for the sweet, woody sound of a Banner-era slope-shouldered dreadnought, but you've been put off by the baseball-bat neck profile, we think you'll warm to Atkin's modern C-shaped neck, which strikes a nice balance between substance and playability. This "Reserve" level J-43 upgrades the standard model with a baked Adirondack Spruce top and Madagascar Rosewood fingerboard & bridge. The guitar offers incredible headroom and volume, with depth of tone that doesn't disappear when you play it lightly.
We also admire Atkin's embrace of a naturally aged finish. At the end of the day, what's more important -- being able to see your reflection in a guitar's finish, or being inspired by its sound when you pick it up? Vibe. Tone. Playability. If you want it all, produced with the expertise of a boutique-level workshop, we suggest giving an Atkin serious consideration.
