A more affordable version of the Atkins Forty-Three.
This Banner era style guitar is the brainchild of two great companies, a guitar luthier and a shop. The Fellowship Of Acoustics, one of the biggest acoustic guitar shops in Europe begged Atkin Guitars to create a more affordable version of the Atkin Guitars Forty-Three Relic guitar. The result, the Atkin Guitars J-Amazing the 45 sunburst, has left us in awe. We really like this guitar and although we could not compare it to the actual Forty-Three or original Banner era Gibson J45, we can tell you that it has a vintage, full, beautiful and inspiring sound.
