FT/FS Atkin OM37A

thebreeze

I’m offering this up in this section too as I’d be interested in trading it for an electric guitar, specifically a Fender CS Strat or CS Tele.  I hope that’s okay.

I’m no acoustic aficionado, but I bought this off JimmyGuitar who actually does know his onions, after I played a few Atkin acoustics in shops and was blown away by them.  In turn, this is a remarkable playing and sounding guitar.  I’m selling to fund something else but it’s definitely with a heavy heart.  There’s something about Atkin guitars.

It has some playing marks which are virtually impossible to distinguish from the factory aged relic’ing, which is very nicely done.  Has had a re-fret recently and comes with a Baggs pickup fitted, so good to go and plays wonderfully and sounds even better.  Comes in a sturdy Hiscox case with the Atkin COA.

Atkin describe the OM37 as “the desert island” guitar and I can’t disagree.  Sounds great for everything. 

£2,350

Trades: Fender CS Strat or Tele

Have you put this in the acoustic board?

I have, but I’m after an electric so seems good to let people know here too.  I’m not sure if it’s the case with all Atkins, but this acoustic lends itself to people who are used to playing electric guitars (like me).  Very smooth, slight V to the neck, easy bends etc.

Really amazing acoustic here.
