About Atkin
Still based in Canterbury and now a 7 man team, Atkin builds around 350 guitars a year. Every guitar is still hand built. Atkin offers a range of production models and a small custom shop where they can build any guitar you want.
Atkin Guitars' history is one of constant dedication to building the finest acoustic guitars possible. What does Atkin mean by "the best"? While other guitar manufacturers are obsessed with building "perfect" display guitars that no longer feel hand-made, Atkin has other priorities. The goal is to build an instrument with more feeling, more personality and more sound. Aktin wants to offer the player something exciting and unexpected. Something that inspires to play good music.
Atkin is passionate about the history and evolution of the acoustic guitar. The classic models and innovations that have influenced the music we love. Atkin wants to tell this story with his guitars. They've worked on all these guitars over the years. From the golden era of pre-war Martins and Gibsons to the boutique manufacturers of the 70's and 80's. This experience flows into every Atkin guitar.
All guitars are hand built in Atkins workshop. Traditional construction methods are used as well as new technologies as long as they don't negatively affect the tone. For example, the frets are built in by hand but the fret slots are CNC cut. All guitars are varnished with nitrocellulose varnish.
