Product information

We can't remember the last 14-fret 0 that threw sound like this one.

Perhaps we shouldn't be surprised by the power of these little Atkin models anymore -- but it's hard not to scratch your head after a couple minutes with this 037. This kind of punch and tone from an 0? Really? We don't want to oversell it (no, it's not a dreadnought in sheep's clothing), but we can't remember the last 14-fret 0 that threw sound like this one.

The voice of this guitar is very warm, despite its diminutive body size. The low end power is downright surprising; and one can certainly flatpick this guitar with some aggression without sacrificing snap in the high end. A super-versatile little instrument, and another shining example of Atkin's prowess.

*Please note this guitar features Atkin's medium-aged (i.e. relic) finish ~ all noticeable elements of wear are a byproduct of manufacturing.
