Alister Atkin the 43 Sunburst. We're guessing that it would be pretty hard to find a J45 style guitar that has all the vintage appointments, looks old and reliced but also sounds like a real vintage guitar.

This Forty Three celebrates Atkin's 25th anniversary, and while this guitar is inspired by guitars that are now nearly 80 years old, this Forty Three celebrates the unique approach and construction that make Atkin's sound so great. We think that is a very beautiful legacy that they can look back on with pride.

This beautifully aged weatherchecked lacquer, dark sunburst, with mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard and bridge that has all the looks and feel of a real vintage guitar but plays like a new one. The big-bodied slope shoulder shape, combined with our Baked Sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides, delivers warm mids, solid lows and great definition. Comes in a TKL hardshell case with certificate of authenticity.
