Atkin Essential OM Shadetop

With a slightly longer scale length than the Essential 000 and Mahogany back and sides, this OM offers powerful, textured tone with plenty of balance as well as a nice punch in the low end.

Atkin Guitars are becoming a real head-turner at TME these days. What makes folks 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). The "Essential" Series is Atkin's take on the revered style-18 flattops of the Golden Era. The OM is a clear nod to the classic fingerstyle Orchestra Models introduced in the 1930's and revered by instrumentalists for decades. With a slightly longer scale length than the Essential 000 and Mahogany back and sides, this OM offers powerful, textured tone with plenty of balance as well as a nice punch in the low end.

Vibe. Tone. Playability. If you want it all, produced with the expertise of a boutique-level workshop, we suggest giving an Atkin serious consideration. Priced with the builder's own hard case, made by TKL.
