Description
From Atkin:
Our best-selling model of 2017, the Atkin OM is for many players a desert island guitar if they had to pick just one, this is the one that can do it all!
The OM, or Orchestra Model combines a full scale length with a slightly scaled down body it is narrower and shallower than a D style guitar like our White Rice or Essential D. The challenge for all OM builders is to allow for a rich, commanding bass in spite of the the smaller, more ergonomic body, and our hand-scalloped bracing and torrified select Sitka top allows us to make this a reality.
Our OM is popular with fingerstyle guitar players, but in truth its a great all-rounder and suits singer-songwriters and folk artists as well.
Weve departed in several ways from the classic pre-war style: A larger top dome, our lifetime-guaranteed neck/body joint, and a two-way truss rod are among the changes, so this isnt a historical reproduction, but a modern British-made guitar with heaps of mojo!
