Alister Atkin LG2 47 Relic Natural

Atkin Guitars was founded in Canterbury, England, in 1995. Since then, they've grown steadily from a one-man operation building a handful of one-of-a-kind instruments each year to become one of the UK’s leading acoustic guitar makers. Still in Canterbury, now a two-man operation, they build around 80 guitars a year, each one still handmade and still completely unique. Atkin continues to impress us with every instrument that enters our shop. The passion and soul with which these instruments are built make their way straight to the eyes and ears, and make it hard not to fall in love with these outstanding sounding and great looking beauties.

You can't go wrong with this LG2 or better LG3 "the Forty Seven" with it's baked top and aged natural finish. This vintage-inspired instrument is truly is all a singer songwriter needs, it handes fingerstyle, strumming and vocal accompaniment with ease. No wonder these guitars have found their way to the heart of the Dutch and Belgian singer-songwriter scene with notable players like Daniel Lohues, Douwe Bob Posthuma, Marcel de Groot (who has exact the same LG3 model) and Maurice van Hoek.
