Vibe. Tone. Playability. If you want it all, produced with the expertise of a boutique-level workshop, we suggest giving an Atkin serious consideration.
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 an Atkin: their modern C-shaped neck 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. And the "Tuxedo" top treatment looks amazing under their factory-aged finish.Tons of vibe, tone, and superb 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.
