The Devil Is In The Details

At Atkin Guitars we take every part of the process seriously. Great guitars are made up of so many special features and details. Some can be seen, some of them are hidden. We're committed to the continuous development of these innovations.

When we make a breakthrough we like to tell you about it.

Aged Finish

We started to develop our aged finish in 2010. It was the result of an accident with one of our Buddy Holly J45s. The guitar got a bad scratch during the build so we thought let’s age it to look like Buddy’s original guitar.

The Volute

Carving a volute is an important part of making a neck, it plays a part in it’s strength and stability. It’s also an oppertunity to give the guitar some character, it shows of the makers abilities.
