Atkin’s Essential series are beautifully built guitars with a pre war spec, with simple but classic lines on the surface. The guitar features a torrefied Sitka Spruce top with a super thin aged toner nitro finish, and Mahogany back and sides. The Spruce / Mahogany combination, give a dynamic, full tone, and the body size gives fantastic balance.
