Atkin Acoustic Guitars

After a period of re-design, research and development, Alister Atkin launched a range of six acoustic guitars, influenced by classic vintage styles and incorporating contemporary construction techniques. In 1999 singer songwriter Boo Hewerdine placed an order for a standard OM model while writing with Chrysalis stable mate Andy Mitchell, already an Atkin player. From then on the list of high profile players began to take shape.

Throughout this time Atkin Guitars continued to receive top reviews in the music press, including a 5 star buyers Choice award from Guitarist Magazine and a Guitar Magazine award in 2003. In 2005 the 'Lakesview' workshop was purchased, and by late 2006 Atkin Guitars had moved into the new 2000 square foot facility.

Now for the first time ever Atkin Guitars are available in the shops. The Range of eight guitars are available in Standard and Deluxe models, offering players a good opportunity to find an instrument that suits them.
