Atkin OM37 Aged

What we say:

At A Glance:

This must be in the running for one of the greatest, most playable and most satisfying guitars we've ever encountered! Hand-made in England, the Atkin OM37 Aged is, as you'd expect, an Orchestral Model guitar with a body that's slightly on the smaller side and a playability that is second to none. This gorgeous model is a real all-rounder, though fingerstyle players in particular will take to the note separation and projection offered here. What is there to like? Everything.

Features We Love:

Torrefied top

The Sitka Spruce top has been subjected to extreme heat in order to dry out all moisture and nutrients. The result is a sound that has an uncanny resemblance to century-old acoustic guitars!

The Details

On top of the sensible levels of authentic-looking aged appearance, there are many lovely details to appreciate. Herringbone purfling, aged Nitro finish, ebony board, Mother of Pearl fret markers...this guitar flat out owns it.

Playing Experience

This wonderful instrument is greater than the sum of its considerable parts. It is a real joy to play: the smaller body and 25.4" scale length combine with the woods and bracing to make this guitar sing out with a voice that impresses and encourages in equal measure.

Highlights:

• Fantastic build quality
• Wonderful looks
• Superlative sound
• Amazingly satisfying playing experience.
